Property Overview: 122 Woodington Bay, Linden Woods
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home is a study in contrasts, offering a unique position within its desirable Linden Woods neighbourhood. Built in 1983, it presents a solid, established character on a generous 6,390 sqft lot. Its primary appeal lies in its value proposition: with a living area of 1,531 sqft, it is a more modestly sized home on its street and in Linden Woods overall, which typically features larger properties. This translates to an assessed value that is notably below the neighbourhood average but ranks well above average city-wide.
The property would suit practical buyers seeking entry into a premium, family-oriented area like Linden Woods without the premium price tag of its largest homes. It’s ideal for those who prioritize land size and location over sheer interior square footage, or for buyers comfortable with a home that may benefit from personal updates. It also represents a savvy opportunity for value-conscious purchasers who understand that a lower assessment in a high-performing area can be a strategic advantage.
