Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This 2010-built home in Amber Trails offers a practical, modern layout with 1,679 sqft of living space on a generous 4,730 sqft lot. Its key appeal lies in its balance of established community living and relatively recent construction, meaning major components are still within a reasonable lifespan. The home features a renovated basement and an attached garage.
The property’s standout characteristic is its strong positional value within a desirable newer neighbourhood. The lot size ranks in the top 14% on its own street, offering more outdoor space than many nearby homes. While the interior living area is comfortably sized, the true value may be in the potential of the finished basement and the above-average lot.
This home would suit first-time buyers or young families looking for a move-in ready, low-maintenance property in a well-regarded suburban area. It also appeals to value-focused buyers who prioritize lot size and a renovated basement over having the largest square footage in the neighbourhood.
