Frequently Asked Questions
How does the lot size compare to nearby properties?
The land area of 3,645 sqft is notably smaller than the average lot on Jubilee Avenue itself, but it is very close to the average for the entire Lord Roberts neighbourhood. This suggests a more manageable yard that is consistent with many homes in the community.
Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value of $30,500 is around the neighbourhood average. It’s a baseline for municipal taxes, but market conditions, the home’s interior condition, and recent upgrades will have a greater impact on the final sale price. The home last sold between $200k-$250k in 2020.
What does the "above average" living area actually mean for me?
With 1,388 sqft of living area, this home offers more interior space than 72% of the homes on its own street and 86% of homes in Lord Roberts. For an older character home, this indicates potentially more generous room sizes or layout compared to many in the area.
The home was built in 1914. What should I consider?
A 1914 build means potential for classic architectural details but also necessitates a thorough inspection for the condition of foundational elements, plumbing, electrical systems, and insulation. Its age is older than most city-wide averages but is typical for the street and area.
