Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This well-situated one-storey home in Winnipeg's Booth neighbourhood sits on a notably large, mature lot of over 10,300 square feet, placing it in the top tier for land size both on its street and in the wider area. Built in 1968, the home features a renovated basement and a detached garage. Its appeal lies in the combination of a substantial, private outdoor space—a rarity in the city—coupled with the practical, single-level living of a bungalow. The property last sold in late 2022.

This home would best suit a buyer who prioritizes land and long-term potential over a large existing footprint. It’s ideal for someone seeking a manageable main-floor layout with a finished basement for extra space, and who values the possibility for expansion, gardening, or simply having significant room to breathe. The large lot offers a quiet, less obvious advantage: it provides a buffer from neighbours and future development, adding a layer of permanence and privacy that smaller lots cannot.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the lot size compare to typical properties?
The lot is exceptionally large, ranking in the top 7% within its neighbourhood and top 6% across Winnipeg. At 10,307 sqft, it offers significantly more outdoor space than most urban properties.

2. What is the condition of the home based on the data?
The data indicates a renovated basement, suggesting updates have been made. The home itself is from 1968, so buyers should anticipate characteristics and potential maintenance needs of a mature home, balanced by the value of the land.

3. Who handles the assessments and rankings provided?
The rankings (e.g., top 87% on the street) are calculated by SaveOnHouse based on publicly available municipal data, offering a quick, comparative snapshot of where this property stands against immediate and city-wide benchmarks.

4. Is the detached garage a standard feature here?
While the listing confirms a detached garage, the lot's size likely allows for ample additional driveway parking and yard space, which isn't always the case with detached structures on smaller lots.

5. What does the sold price from 2022 indicate?
The $300,000 sale price from December 2022 provides a recent market benchmark. It sold at a substantial premium over its assessed value at the time, which is common and reflects market value versus the tax-assessment value. This history is a useful data point for understanding the property's market trajectory.
