619 Mulvey Avenue

Property Overview

This 1,919 sqft two-and-a-half storey home on Mulvey Avenue in Earl Grey is a property of distinct contrasts. Built in 1905, it offers significantly more living space than most homes on its street and in the neighbourhood, ranking in the top 4% locally. Its appeal lies in this generous interior footprint within a mature, established area. The home presents a solid opportunity for buyers seeking character and space over modern finishes, as the basement is noted as unrenovated and there is no garage. It would best suit a practical buyer or investor who values square footage and location over turn-key condition, and who is prepared for the maintenance or updates typical of a century-old home. A thoughtful perspective is that its average assessed value, combined with its above-average living area, suggests a potentially favourable cost-per-square-foot ratio compared to newer, smaller homes in the area.
