Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This well-established Amber Trails home, built in 2006, offers a practical and comfortable living space on a generous lot. Its key appeal lies in its balance of space, recent updates, and a strong position within its community. The 1,659 sqft one-storey layout is complemented by a renovated basement, effectively expanding the usable living area. With an attached garage and a land size ranking in the top third of its street, it provides solid suburban utility.

The home’s data reveals a thoughtful perspective: while the living area is ample, the property’s assessed value ranks highly compared to most of Winnipeg, suggesting the municipal assessment sees lasting value here. It would suit buyers looking for a move-in ready, single-level home in a mature neighbourhood, particularly those who prioritize a larger yard over having the newest build on the block. It’s a sensible choice for small families, downsizers, or first-time buyers seeking a foothold in a stable area without the premium of a brand-new construction.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the renovated basement add value?
A finished basement immediately increases the functional square footage of the home, providing space for recreation, guests, or a home office. It’s a key update that adds practicality without the need for immediate investment.

2. The home is 20 years old. What should I be mindful of?
While the basement has been renovated, a home of this age may be approaching the time for updates to original components like the roof, HVAC system, or windows. A thorough inspection is recommended to assess their remaining lifespan.

3. The living area ranks highly on the street, but the lot size ranks even higher. What does this mean?
This indicates the home makes good use of its space, but the property’s standout feature is its outdoor area. You’re getting a larger-than-average yard for the neighbourhood, which is a valuable asset for privacy, gardening, or outdoor living.

4. The assessed value seems high relative to some recent sales and comparable homes. Why?
Municipal assessed value for taxation doesn't always directly correlate with market value. This assessment suggests the city views the property as holding substantial worth, but the final market price will be determined by current buyer demand, condition, and recent sales of similar homes.

5. Who would this neighbourhood, Amber Trails, appeal to?
Amber Trails is a established, family-oriented community in northwest Winnipeg. It appeals to those seeking a quiet, residential setting with good access to amenities, schools, and major routes, preferring a settled neighbourhood vibe over a brand-new development.
