Highlights & common questions: 8 Ambergate Drive, Winnipeg

Property Overview

8 Ambergate Drive is a well-maintained, two-storey family home in Winnipeg's Amber Trails neighbourhood. Built in 1991, it sits on a spacious 6,644 sqft lot and offers 2,106 sqft of living space. Key features include an attached garage and a renovated basement. The home last sold in May 2023 for $61.10k and has a current assessed value of $55.20k.

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home’s primary appeal lies in its established presence and generous proportions within a mature neighbourhood. It offers more living and land space than the majority of homes in both Winnipeg and its immediate area, providing room to grow without the premium of a brand-new build. The renovated basement adds valuable, modernized living space. Its strong resale history, having recently sold well above the current assessed value and ranking in the top 3% of its street for that sale price, suggests a history of good upkeep and marketability.

The property would suit practical buyers looking for a move-in ready family home with room to breathe. It’s ideal for those who value space over a brand-new construction and appreciate a neighbourhood with settled greenery and established community character. A less obvious perspective is its potential appeal to value-conscious buyers who see the current assessed value as a solid baseline, with the recent higher sale price indicating strong underlying value and desirability.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value compare to the likely asking price?
The current assessed value is $55.20k, but the home sold for $61.10k in May 2023. Market conditions and updates since then will influence the price, but the recent sale suggests the assessed value may be conservative.

2. Is the house older than others in Amber Trails?
At 35 years old (built 1991), it is newer than 97% of homes in the wider Amber Trails neighbourhood, making it one of the more recent builds in the area despite its established feel.

3. How does the lot size compare to neighbours?
The 6,644 sqft lot is above average, ranking in the top 53% on its street and the top 82% within the broader Amber Trails area, offering more outdoor space than many nearby properties.

4. What does the "renovated basement" entail?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. This would require clarification on the finishes, layout, and whether it includes legal secondary suite potential.

5. How does the living space compare to a typical Winnipeg home?
With 2,106 sqft, this home is larger than approximately 93% of all homes in Winnipeg, offering above-average interior space for the city.
