My read

The owned solar panels, 22x22 detached garage, and already-in-place separate side entrance with 9-foot unfinished basement are the real story here, not the main floor finishes. A buyer comparing this to other 1,500-ish square foot Legacy detached homes needs to look hard at what comes included versus what they'd still have to spend on a competing listing.

What I'd pay
$580,000
Looking at recent Legacy peers like 73 Legacy Common SE (1,580 sqft, $530,000 ask) and 11 Legacy Crescent SE (1,585 sqft, $564,800 ask), where sold prices typically settle somewhat below list in a balanced market with 40-day average DOM, a buyer thinking about value on this home would weigh how much the owned solar, garage size, and separate entrance are worth to them personally before settling on a number to bring forward.

The play

If you're comparing this to other Legacy detached homes in the $530,000 to $600,000 range, bring a running tally of what you'd have to add to a competing listing to match what this one ships with: a double garage that's already built, owned solar with no lease assumption, a fenced and landscaped yard, and a basement that's already set up for future development. Those are real dollars. The market is balanced right now with about 3.5 months of supply SE-wide, so there's room for a thoughtful conversation on price without rushing, and a pre-inspection before offering on a 2023 build is still worth doing even though the home is new.

Risks

  • Worth confirming in person that the separate side entrance and basement rough-in were built to City of Calgary specifications and that any future suite development would be achievable under current zoning.
  • No central air conditioning is listed; worth asking about summer comfort given south-facing front exposure and triple-pane windows that retain heat.
  • The lot at 260 m² is on the compact side for a detached home; worth walking the backyard in person to understand usable space relative to the garage footprint.
  • Parking is listed as a detached garage with 4 total spaces; worth confirming how the additional spaces are configured on this lot size.
