Highlights & common questions: 85 Amber Trail, Winnipeg

Property Overview & Key Characteristics

85 Amber Trail is a well-established two-storey home in the Amber Trails neighbourhood, built in 1998. Its key appeal lies in its balance of space, updates, and location within a mature community. The home sits on a generous 5,670 sqft lot, larger than most on its street, and features a renovated basement and an attached garage. With 1,767 sqft of living space, it offers ample room for a growing family or those who value separate living areas.

The home’s value proposition is underscored by its comparative rankings. It sits in the top third of its street for lot size and living area, and its 1998 build date makes it newer than most homes in both Amber Trails and Winnipeg overall. This suggests a property that has benefited from neighbourhood establishment while potentially having more modern fundamentals than many peers. The renovated basement adds immediate functional space without the need for a project.

This property would suit buyers looking for a move-in ready family home in a settled area, particularly those who prioritize a larger yard and updated interiors over a brand-new build. It also represents a solid option for value-conscious buyers seeking a home that ranks well on key metrics compared to its immediate neighbours and the wider city.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the 1998 build date compare to nearby homes?
This home is newer than approximately 90% of homes in the Amber Trails neighbourhood and 79% of homes in Winnipeg, offering a more contemporary structure than many in the area.

2. What do the ranking percentages (e.g., "Top 37% in same street") actually mean?
These rankings compare this specific property against similar data for all homes on its street, in its neighbourhood, and across Winnipeg. For example, being in the "Top 37%" for land area on its street means its lot size is larger than 63% of the lots on Amber Trail.

3. The assessed value is $54.10k, but it sold for $51.80k in 2022. What does this indicate?
The assessed value is a municipal valuation for tax purposes, not a market price. The 2022 sale price provides a concrete recent market value. The current assessed value being slightly higher is common and reflects the city's valuation model, which may differ from actual market fluctuations.

4. Is the renovated basement a legal suite?
The provided details state the basement is renovated but do not specify it as a legal secondary suite. Buyers should verify its compliance with local regulations if considering rental income or separate living quarters.
