This is a 1970-built home with 1,100 sq ft of living space on a 3,437 sq ft lot. Its size sits slightly above average for the Westdale neighbourhood (ranking in the top 30%), but is more modest when compared citywide. The property’s assessed value of $254,000 is below both the neighbourhood and city averages, which may reflect a more conservative starting point for renovations or a lower tax burden relative to nearby homes.
The home’s strongest point is its build year: it ranks in the top 3% on Brownell Bay, meaning it’s among the newer homes on the street. That can be appealing for buyers who want a structure from a well-documented era (1970) without the unknowns of much older construction. The lot, however, is smaller than typical for both the street and the area—worth noting if outdoor space is a priority.
This property would suit buyers who value livable interior square footage in a solid neighbourhood over a large yard or a high assessed value. It could be a good fit for first-time homeowners, small families, or anyone looking for a functional home in Westdale without paying a premium for land or recent renovations. The below-average assessment may also appeal to those watching property taxes.
1. How does the living space compare to other homes nearby?
It’s slightly larger than the average on Brownell Bay (1,011 sq ft) and in Westdale (1,029 sq ft). You’re getting above-average interior space for the immediate area, even though it’s smaller than the citywide average.
2. Is the assessed value a concern?
The value is below both the neighbourhood and city averages. That’s not necessarily a bad thing—it could mean lower property taxes, but it may also signal that the home hasn’t been updated recently or has less land value. It’s worth understanding what’s driving the assessment before making an offer.
3. What’s the advantage of a 1970 build?
On Brownell Bay, this home is among the newest (top 3%). Compared to older houses, you’re less likely to encounter structural surprises like knob-and-tube wiring or foundation issues common in pre-1960s homes. That said, 1970s builds can still have their own quirks, like dated plumbing or insulation.
4. Why is the lot size smaller than average?
The lot is about 275 sq ft smaller than the street average and significantly smaller than the Westdale norm (5,168 sq ft). This is common for homes built during that era in denser pockets of the neighbourhood. If you don’t need a large yard for gardening or recreation, it’s not a drawback.
5. What type of buyer typically chooses this property?
It tends to attract people who want a well-located home with decent square footage, but aren’t looking to pay for a premium lot or a fully renovated interior. It’s also a practical option for buyers who want to avoid the oldest housing stock in the area while keeping the purchase price grounded.
