Property Overview: 30 Sunbury Place, Fort Richmond
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 1981 four-level split home in Fort Richmond offers a practical and spacious family layout with nearly 2,000 square feet of living space. Its appeal is rooted in solid, above-average metrics for the neighbourhood, including a generous 9,500+ sqft lot and a renovated basement. The attached garage and in-ground pool add functional and leisure value. This property stands out on its street and in Fort Richmond, ranking consistently above average for lot size, living area, and assessed value compared to local and city-wide peers.
The home suits buyers looking for established character and room to grow outdoors, without the premium of a brand-new build. It’s a strong match for a family seeking a long-term home in a mature neighbourhood, where the large yard and pool can be enjoyed for years. A less obvious perspective is its appeal to value-conscious buyers who prioritize land size—a asset that’s increasingly scarce in newer developments—over a completely modernized interior. The above-average rankings suggest a property that has been maintained well relative to its peers, offering a balance of space, location, and investment stability.
