761 Selkirk Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Fit

This is a 1,602 sqft home on a 3,010 sqft lot, built in 1905, with an assessed value of $73,000. The standout feature is its living space: it ranks in the top 9% on its street and top 12% in the neighborhood for size, offering more interior room than most nearby homes. However, the assessed value is very low relative to the area—bottom 1% on the street and bottom 4% in the neighborhood. This suggests either significant deferred maintenance, an outdated interior, or a property that hasn't been recently updated to reflect market rates. The lot is slightly smaller than the street average, and the house is among the oldest in the city (built before most surrounding homes).

The appeal lies in the contradiction: you get a large interior footprint at a low assessed price point. That implies potential for sweat equity or renovation, provided the structure is sound. It’s not a turnkey property, and the low value relative to the neighborhood average ($149,100) indicates it may need considerable work or has characteristics that suppress its market price.

Who it suits: Buyers comfortable with older homes and willing to invest in updates—either as a primary residence where they can build value over time, or as a renovation project. It may also appeal to someone who prioritizes square footage over modernity or curb appeal, and who has the budget for repairs that the current assessed value doesn’t reflect. It is less suited for someone wanting a move-in-ready home or a property in a high-demand area with strong resale liquidity.


Five Possible FAQs

1. Why is the assessed value so low compared to other homes in the area?
The assessed value likely reflects the property’s age (1905), condition, and possibly outdated systems or finishes. It ranks below 99% of homes on its street and 96% in the neighborhood. This suggests the home has not been updated to current market standards, or there are structural or mechanical issues. Buyers should verify the assessment basis and consider a home inspection to understand what drives that number.

2. How does the living area of 1,602 sqft compare to typical homes?
It is significantly larger than average. On Selkirk Avenue, the average is 1,093 sqft; in the William Whyte neighborhood, it’s 1,158 sqft; citywide, it’s 1,342 sqft. So this home provides about 50% more interior space than the typical home on its street, and about 20% more than the city average. That extra space is the property’s main advantage.

3. Is the land size a concern for future development or resale?
The lot is 3,010 sqft, which is below the street average of 3,730 sqft and well below the citywide average of 6,570 sqft. While it’s near the neighborhood median, it’s not oversized. Potential buyers should check local zoning and setback requirements if they intend to expand the footprint. The small lot may limit addition possibilities but also means less yard maintenance.

4. The house was built in 1905—what should I look out for?
Older homes often have original wiring (knob-and-tube), plumbing, foundation settling, lead paint, and insulation challenges. Given the low assessed value, these issues may not have been addressed. A thorough inspection by someone familiar with pre-1920s construction is recommended. Also check for unpermitted renovations or additions, which sometimes occur in older homes with piecemeal updates.

5. How does this property compare to others in the William Whyte neighborhood overall?
It sits in the top 12% for living area but in the bottom 4% for assessed value. This mismatch is unusual—most larger homes in the area have higher values. The land area is around the neighborhood median. In short, you’re getting above-average interior space at a below-average price point, which could mean either a hidden bargain or a property that needs substantial work to reach neighborhood standards.
