Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This well-maintained, one-storey home in Amber Trails offers a practical and comfortable living space. Built in 2006, it sits on a generous lot that is larger than most on its street. The home's key features include a fully renovated basement and an attached garage. Its assessed value places it in the top tier for the neighbourhood and city, suggesting a solid, above-average investment relative to nearby properties.
The appeal lies in its move-in readiness, established community feel, and strong value positioning. It suits buyers looking for a single-level layout, those who appreciate a renovated space without immediate projects, and value-conscious purchasers who prioritize a home with an assessment that compares favourably to its peers. A less obvious perspective is its potential appeal to those seeking a stable, mature property in a newer neighbourhood—it’s past the initial settling phase common in newer builds, yet still modern, offering a blend of established landscaping and recent updates.
