Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a well-established, two-storey home on a large, 8,247 sqft lot in the Betsworth neighbourhood. Built in 1990, the 1,662 sqft house features a finished basement and ranks highly for its lot size, living space, and assessed value compared to most of Winnipeg. Its appeal lies in the combination of a generous, private yard and a home that offers more space than many in the city, all at a value-oriented price point. The data suggests it's a solid, above-average offering in its immediate area.

It would suit practical buyers looking for room to grow, garden, or simply enjoy more outdoor space without moving to the rural fringe. It's particularly suited for those who value established neighbourhoods and a home that has stood the test of time, rather than seeking brand-new construction. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home itself ranks well, the lot is its standout feature—offering future potential for expansion, landscaping, or recreation that is increasingly rare in urban settings.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the "ranking" system work?
The rankings compare this property against others on the same street, in the Betsworth community, and across all of Winnipeg. For example, being in the top 10% city-wide for lot size means 90% of Winnipeg homes sit on smaller lots. It's a quick way to gauge its relative standing.

2. What does the assessment value tell me?
The municipal assessment of $506,000 is used for calculating property taxes and is not the market price. However, its high percentile ranking indicates the city assesses it as more valuable than most properties in Winnipeg, which can be a positive indicator of underlying value.

3. Is there parking or a garage?
The listing specifies there is no garage. Buyers should consider where vehicles will be parked, such as on the driveway or street, and factor in the cost of adding a garage or carport if desired, given the ample lot size.

4. The home is 36 years old. What should I consider?
While the home ranks as newer than most in its direct neighbourhood, a house of this age may have original major components, like the roof, windows, or HVAC system, that are nearing or past their typical lifespan. A thorough inspection is advised.

5. Why is the lot size highlighted as a key feature?
At over 8,000 sqft, the lot is a significant asset. It provides privacy, space for children or pets, gardening opportunities, and room for additions like a deck, shed, or even future expansion of the home itself—a level of space that is difficult to find in newer subdivisions.
