Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This two-storey home at 62 Thorn Drive in Amber Trails is a well-established property built in 2004, offering a renovated basement and an attached garage on a near 5,000 sqft lot. Its primary appeal lies in its balance of space, recent updates, and a stable location within a mature area of the neighbourhood. The home's living area of 2,065 sqft is comfortably above average for Winnipeg, ranking in the top 8% citywide, suggesting a spacious interior layout.

The property suits buyers looking for a move-in ready home with the major work of a basement renovation already completed. It’s particularly fitting for those who value a larger lot for privacy or outdoor space, as the land size ranks in the top 7% on its own street. The recent sale in May 2024 indicates a refreshed market value, and the home’s assessed value is consistent with similar properties across different Winnipeg neighbourhoods, pointing to a fair and stable investment. A thoughtful perspective for buyers is that while the home is 22 years old, it sits in a pocket of Amber Trails with a mix of newer builds (as seen in nearby comparisons from 2013-2015), offering a blend of established streetscapes with modern neighbourhood amenities.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home compare to others in Amber Trails?
Based on the data, this home offers more living space than many in the area (top 22% in the neighbourhood) on a larger-than-average lot. It is older than many compared properties, which are often from the 2013-2015 period, but it offsets this with a renovated basement.

2. Is the price in line with the area?
The home sold for $60,800 in May 2024. This sale price ranked in the top 15% for the neighbourhood at that time, suggesting it commanded a premium, likely due to its size, lot, and renovated condition compared to other Amber Trails listings.

3. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. This is a key detail to clarify with the listing agent regarding the finish, permits, and the nature of the renovation (e.g., recreational room, additional bedroom, etc.).

4. How does the age of the home affect its value?
Built in 2004, the home is newer than 82% of Winnipeg properties, which is a positive. However, it is older than many recent builds in Amber Trails. This often means more established landscaping and potential for larger lots, but buyers should focus on the condition of major 20-year-old components like the roof, HVAC, and windows.

5. What is the immediate neighbourhood like?
The data shows direct neighbours on Thorn Drive are very close (13-37 meters away), typical of suburban layouts. The lot size offers good privacy for the area. The provided comparisons suggest the immediate area is a mix of homes from the early 2000s to the mid-2010s.
