Property Overview: 259 Desrosiers Drive, Canterbury Park

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This two-storey home at 259 Desrosiers Drive is a notably modern property in a well-established Winnipeg neighbourhood. Built in 2024, its new construction status is its most defining feature, placing it in the top 1-2% of homes for age both locally and citywide. The 1,851 sqft living space is comfortably above average for the area, offering more room than many neighbouring properties. It sits on a 4,632 sqft lot and includes an attached garage and a basement (not renovated).

The appeal lies in the balance of a brand-new, low-maintenance home within a mature community. Buyers gain the benefits of modern building standards, energy efficiency, and contemporary layouts without sacrificing the settled feel and established amenities of Canterbury Park. The property’s assessed value is strong for the neighbourhood, and its recent sale price suggests it is positioned in a desirable market segment.

This home would best suit buyers who prioritize move-in readiness and new construction but want to avoid a brand-new subdivision. It’s ideal for professionals or families looking for a modern interior in a community with mature trees and developed infrastructure. The unrenovated basement presents a clear opportunity for future customization to add value and space.


Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a brand-new development?
The home itself is new, built in 2024. However, it is located on an existing street in the long-established Canterbury Park neighbourhood, not in a fresh subdivision.

How does the lot size compare?
The land area is 4,632 sqft, which is around average for Desrosiers Drive but slightly below the average for Canterbury Park as a whole. This is typical for newer infill properties in mature areas.

What does "above average" for assessed value mean here?
While the assessed value is above average for Canterbury Park, the recent sale price was significantly higher. This indicates strong market demand for new homes in the area, with buyers placing a premium on the modern build.

What are the implications of an unrenovated basement?
The basement is a blank canvas. It provides valuable future living or storage space but will require a full investment to finish. This should be factored into your budget, but it also allows you to customize the space to your specific needs.

How does this home rank for living space in Winnipeg?
With 1,851 sqft, this home’s living area is in the top 15% citywide. This means it offers more interior space than approximately 85% of homes in Winnipeg, a significant advantage for a two-storey property.
