A band, not a measurement. Interior area as the listing states it. It does not say whether the figure was measured on site or taken from builder plans.
Property type
Detached
Style as listed: Bungalow.
Second dwelling
The listing does not say whether there is a second dwelling unit here. Other records in this set state it either way, so this is a silence rather than a no.

Three parties produce a dollar figure for this house, for three different purposes, so they do not agree and were never meant to. The gaps are worked out here rather than left for you to hold in your head.

None of these is an appraisal. Your lender orders one of those once an offer is accepted, and it is the figure that decides how much they will actually lend.
A rare opportunity to acquire a premier development site in one of Hamilton's fastest-growing corridors. Welcome to 879 West 5th Street. A 100' x 253' property with exceptional dual street frontage on West 5th Street and Fortissimo Drive, offering outstanding redevelopment potential. The property also benefits from City-approved R4 (Mid-Rise Residential) rezoning, currently pending appeal, creating exciting future development possibilities. Approved severance for two rear lots and municipal water and sewer services already in place for additional lots help reduce development timelines and soft costs. Explore the potential for a four-lot detached subdivision, luxury townhomes, semi-detached homes, or a higher-density residential project. The existing three-bedroom bungalow provides immediate rental income while development plans are finalized. Ideally located just down the street from Mohawk College's Fennell Campus and minutes to the Upper James Street and Stone Church Road corridor, with convenient access to shopping, transit, parks, schools, and major highways, the location is ideal for student housing, family-oriented development, or professional rentals. Offering an exceptional combination of size, servicing, dual frontage, future zoning potential, income generation, and a prime West Mountain location, opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare. Whether you're a builder, developer, or investor, 879 West 5th Street is reay for your vision.
