Property Overview: 15 Thorn Drive, Amber Trails

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated bi-level home in Amber Trails offers a practical and modern living space. Built in 2005, its key feature is a renovated basement, adding valuable finished square footage to the 1,308 sqft main living area. The property sits on a generous 5,110 sqft lot, providing ample outdoor space, and includes an attached garage for convenience.

The appeal lies in its balanced position within a desirable neighbourhood. The home ranks highly for its lot size and living area compared to others on its street, suggesting it offers more space than many nearby properties. It suits buyers looking for a move-in ready home with modern updates in a mature, established area. It would particularly fit first-time buyers or small families seeking a low-maintenance property with room to grow, thanks to the finished basement. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home is newer than most in Winnipeg, it is slightly older than many in its immediate area, which may appeal to those preferring a settled streetscape over a brand-new development.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the property’s value compare to the area?
The home’s assessed value is in the top 21% on its street, indicating it is valued higher than most direct neighbours. This is consistent with its above-average living space and lot size for the street.

2. What is the neighbourhood like?
Amber Trails is a mature neighbourhood. The property ranks in the top third for lot size within Amber Trails, meaning it has a larger yard than many local homes, which is a notable advantage in a developed area.

3. Has the property’s value increased?
Yes. Comparing the last sold price in January 2020 ($42.10k) to the current assessed value ($53.50k) shows a clear increase in value over the past four years.

4. Is the living space typical for the area?
The living area is quite large for the street, ranking in the top 7%. This means the home likely offers more interior space than most other houses on Thorn Drive.

5. What are the less obvious considerations?
While the home ranks well on its street, some rankings for the year built and past sale price are average or lower within the broader neighbourhood. This suggests it may not have the newest features on the block but could represent a value-oriented option in a solid location. The very close proximity of neighbouring homes (some just 13 meters away) is typical for the area but worth noting for privacy preferences.
