Property Overview: 1091 Beauty Avenue
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home’s primary appeal lies in its generous scale and land size relative to its immediate neighborhood. With 2,395 sqft of living space, it ranks in the top 1% of homes on Beauty Avenue for size, offering significantly more room than the local average. The lot is also substantial at 7,687 sqft, placing it well above average for the street and the wider city. This combination suggests a property with ample indoor and outdoor space, a relative rarity in the area.
The assessed value is strong for the street but more moderate in broader comparisons, which may indicate value for buyers prioritizing space over a newer build, as the home was constructed in 1976. It would best suit buyers looking for a established, spacious family home in a mature neighborhood, who value larger proportions over modern construction. A thoughtful perspective is that this property represents an opportunity to acquire a "large footprint" in a context where that is uncommon, potentially offering more flexibility for renovation, expansion, or gardening than neighboring properties.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home’s age affect its value?
Built in 1976, it is older than most in the immediate Leila-Mcphillips Triangle area. This is reflected in its assessed value ranking higher on its specific street than in the wider city, suggesting the premium is for its size and land, not its age. Buyers should budget for updates consistent with a home of this vintage.
2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the selling price?
The assessed value of $46,900 is for tax purposes. The last known sold price range (2016) was $300k-$350k. For a current market price, consult a local real estate professional and consider recent comparable sales.
3. What does the "top 1%" ranking for living area actually mean?
It means that of 72 comparable homes on Beauty Avenue, this property has the largest living area. It is also notably larger than the average home in the surrounding neighborhood and the city, highlighting its standout characteristic.
4. How can I find out the exact historical sold prices?
The exact sold price history is not publicly displayed. You can request it by email via the button on the property detail page; the service aims to provide the accurate figure by the end of the same day.
5. The home ranks well for size and land, but lower for year built. What’s the trade-off?
