Property Overview: 159 Desrosiers Drive, Canterbury Park

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a modern, low-maintenance home built in 2020, offering a turnkey experience in Winnipeg's Canterbury Park neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its balance of contemporary living and practical value. The home features a renovated basement and an attached garage, situated on a roughly 5,650 sqft lot that is typical for the immediate street but notably larger than many lots in the wider neighbourhood.

The data reveals a thoughtful perspective: this property represents a "sweet spot" of being newer than most of the city's housing stock (ranking in the top 3% citywide for year built) while offering more living space than the average Winnipeg home. It suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a modern home without a hefty renovation list, as well as pragmatic investors attracted by the combination of recent construction, above-average neighbourhood assessments, and a sale history below the current assessed value, which may indicate room for equity growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home compare to others on the street?
It is a very modern home for the street (built 2020 vs. a street average of 2017) with a slightly smaller footprint but a fully renovated basement. The lot size and assessed value are both comfortably within the average range for Desrosiers Drive.

2. What does the assessed value ranking mean for this area?
With an assessed value ranking in the top 9% for Canterbury Park, this home is considered above average for the neighbourhood. This often reflects its newer construction, modern features, and lot size compared to older homes in the area.

3. Is the living space sufficient for a growing family?
At 1,579 sqft, the living area is above average for both the city and Canterbury Park. However, it is slightly below the average for its own street. The renovated basement provides crucial additional flexible space, making it well-suited for small or young families.

4. Why was the previous sale price significantly lower than the current assessment?
The home last sold in July 2020, likely near its initial completion. The increase in assessed value since then generally reflects market appreciation, the completion of the home and landscaping, and the addition of the basement renovation.

5. What is the long-term outlook for a property like this?
Its modern construction minimizes immediate major repair costs. Being newer than 97% of Winnipeg homes is a durable advantage. The lot size, which is above average for the neighbourhood, also provides a lasting value foundation that older homes on smaller lots may not offer.
