Property Overview

This two-storey home in Amber Trails presents a compelling blend of established comfort and modern updates. Built in 2009, it sits on a nearly 5,000 sqft lot, offering above-average outdoor space for the street. The 1,741 sqft interior is complemented by a renovated basement, adding valuable finished living area. Its appeal lies in being a settled home in a desirable neighbourhood, where the renovation work is already done, offering move-in readiness. The attached garage and strong rankings for lot size and newer age relative to Winnipeg as a whole add to its practical merits.

It would suit buyers looking for a balanced proposition: a home that’s not brand-new but is well-maintained and updated, avoiding the premium price of the newest builds while offering more maturity than a recent subdivision. It’s also a strong fit for those who value a larger lot for gardening or play space, which can be harder to find in newer phases of development.


Frequently Asked Questions

How does the assessed value relate to the likely asking price?
The assessed value is a municipal figure for tax purposes and is typically lower than market value. Comparing it to similar nearby homes (like the referenced properties on Morava Way or Strasbourg Drive) provides a better gauge of current market value.

What does the "renovated basement" entail?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. This is a key detail to clarify—whether it’s a full legal suite, a recreational room, or updated living space—as it significantly impacts the home’s utility and value.

The home last sold in 2020. What should I consider?
The 2020 sale price reflects the market conditions of that time. Given the renovated basement was likely completed by the current owners, the value has been added since that last sale. It’s wise to research what similar, updated homes in Amber Trails have sold for recently.

How does this property rank within Amber Trails?
The data shows a mix: it ranks very well for its lot size (top 25% in the neighbourhood) and is newer than most homes in Winnipeg. Its living area is near the neighbourhood median. This suggests you’re getting a better-than-average property footprint, with interior space that’s standard for the area.

Are the property taxes known?
The taxes are not listed here, but they can be estimated using the assessed value and the City of Winnipeg’s current mill rate. Your real estate agent can help obtain the exact previous year’s tax amount.
