Highlights & common questions: 259 Wynford Drive, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This two-storey home at 259 Wynford Drive in Canterbury Park presents a specific and compelling value proposition. Built in 1978, its key appeal lies in its efficient use of space and its position as a relatively modern home within its immediate streetscape. The 1,152 sqft living area is notably above average for Wynford Drive itself, suggesting a well-sized interior compared to direct neighbours. It features a renovated basement, adding functional space. The lot, at 1,980 sqft, is compact, which translates to lower maintenance. The recent sale price of $270k aligns with the home’s assessed value and positions it well below both neighbourhood and city-wide averages.

This property would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an affordable, low-maintenance entry into a mature neighbourhood. Its appeal is for the practical buyer who prioritizes a renovated, move-in-ready space over a large yard. A less obvious perspective is that its newer construction date relative to the street could mean fewer immediate major system updates than older neighbours, while the compact lot offers a "lock-and-leave" convenience.


Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the lot size impact this property?
A: The lot is significantly smaller than average for Canterbury Park and Winnipeg. This is a key factor in its lower price and assessed value, and it means far less yard maintenance. It appeals to those who want outdoor space but not the upkeep of a large garden.

Q: The home is described as "above average" for living area on its street. What does that mean?
A: Compared to other homes directly on Wynford Drive, this house has more interior living space (1,152 sqft vs. a street average of ~996 sqft). This indicates you're getting a relatively spacious home for that specific block, even though it's around the average size for the wider city.

Q: The assessed value seems very low. Is that a concern?
A: The assessed value ($24.6k) is for taxation purposes only and is not a market valuation. The recent sale at $270k is the true market price. The low assessment is typical for the area and may actually result in relatively lower property taxes.

Q: What does the "renovated basement" include?
A: The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or layout. This is a key detail to clarify with the selling agent to understand the quality of the renovation and how the space can be used (e.g., recreational room, additional bedroom).

Q: There's no garage. What are the parking options?
A: The property has no garage. Parking would be limited to the driveway and/or on-street. This is a common feature for homes of this era and price point in the area and should be factored into your decision if you have multiple vehicles.
