This home offers 1,607 square feet of living space on a 5,769-square-foot lot, built in 1966. Its standout feature is the assessed value: it ranks #1 on Sansome Avenue (top 1% of the street) and sits well above the local and citywide averages. The living area is also strong—top 5% on the street and top 18% in Westwood—meaning the interior is noticeably larger than most nearby homes. The land area, however, is closer to typical for the street and slightly below average for the neighbourhood, so the appeal here is more about indoor space and value than lot size. The year built is roughly in line with the area median.
The property’s appeal lies in offering above-average square footage and a top-tier assessed value relative to its immediate street, which suggests either a well-maintained interior, recent upgrades, or a desirable location within the block. It’s not a sprawling lot or a newly built home, but it outperforms most comparable homes in the categories that matter for long-term resale and day-to-day living.
This property would suit buyers who prioritize interior space over yard size, and who value a home that ranks strongly within its immediate street and neighbourhood. It may also appeal to those looking for a property with above-average assessed value—often a sign of good upkeep or location advantages—without paying for a large lot.
1. What does the assessed value ranking actually tell me?
It means this home is valued higher by the city than nearly all other homes on Sansome Avenue, and significantly above the street average of $356,200. This often reflects recent renovations, a superior interior condition, or a particularly desirable position on the block. It’s not a market price, but it’s a useful indicator of how the property compares to peers on paper.
2. Is the land area smaller than typical for the neighbourhood?
Slightly. The lot is 5,769 square feet, which is about average for Sansome Avenue but about 11% smaller than the Westwood neighbourhood average of 6,491 square feet. It’s not notably undersized, but buyers expecting a deep or oversized yard should note it’s in line with the street, not the broader area.
3. How does the 1966 build year affect things?
The home is about average age for both the neighbourhood and citywide. Being from the mid-60s often means solid construction, but systems (furnace, roof, windows) may need updating depending on when they were last replaced. It’s worth asking for the age of major components rather than assuming condition from the year alone.
4. How does this home compare to others on Sansome Avenue specifically?
It ranks very high on the street: #1 for assessed value, #5 for living area (top 5%), and #7 for year built (top 8%). That means it’s one of the largest, most recently built (relative to the street average of 1963), and highest-valued homes on that block. Its land area rank (#38 of 93) is the only average metric.
5. What does “average” mean in the rankings?
The “Avg” shown alongside rankings is a rough median for comparable homes within that scope (street, neighbourhood, city). For example, the street average living area of 1,244 sqft means half the homes on Sansome Avenue are smaller and half are larger. This property at 1,607 sqft is well above that midpoint, hence the top 5% rank.
