What outstanding value this home and land is! Ask your Realtor to compare this property to 6388 31 Avenue NW which sold for $749,900 or about $125 per sq. ft. for the land. 6379 31 avenue is listed at $599,000 or about $99 per sq. ft. for the land and where it trumps 6388 31 Avenue NW is that it has a PRIVATE WARM SUNNY SOUTH facing back yard!

Safer for Pets and Kids: Lacks dual-sided road exposure, providing a much more contained and controlled environment. In the winter - only 50 feet of snow shoveling out front! In the spring early back yard snow melt! This property has Clean Rectangular Lot Lines: Features a highly uniform, rectangular footprint that is cheaper to fence and landscape cleanly.
