Property Overview
This 988 sqft bungalow, built in 1977, sits on a generous 5,446 sqft lot in Meadowood. Its appeal lies in its established neighbourhood setting and a lot size that is notably larger than many on its own street. The home presents as a practical, no-frills property. It last sold between $300k-$350k in 2022, and its current assessed value is in line with area averages. This is a home that values function and space over modern finishes or square footage.
It would suit first-time buyers seeking an entry point into homeownership with room to grow outdoors, or downsizers looking for a manageable single-level layout on a private lot. Investors may also see value in its stable, average assessment within the community. A thoughtful perspective is that while the living area is compact by city standards, the above-average lot for the street offers valuable outdoor potential or future expansion possibilities that similar homes might not.
