Highlights & common questions: 228 Eastmount Drive, Winnipeg

Property Overview

228 Eastmount Drive is a well-maintained, single-storey home in Winnipeg's Dakota Crossing neighbourhood. Built in 1993, it features a renovated basement and an attached garage. The home presents a practical, low-maintenance living option with recent updates, set on a smaller, manageable lot.

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home’s primary appeal lies in its balance of modern updates and efficient scale. The renovated basement adds valuable finished space, making the total living area functional for a small family or couple. Its assessed value is notably strong for the street and city-wide, suggesting it is in good condition relative to its peers. The one-storey design and smaller yard (4,395 sqft) translate to less upkeep, a significant advantage for those seeking a simpler lifestyle.

It would suit first-time buyers looking for a move-in-ready home without a massive yard to manage, or downsizers wanting single-level living with the bonus of a finished basement for guests or hobbies. A less obvious perspective is its appeal to the value-conscious investor; its above-average assessment in a neighbourhood of similar-aged homes indicates solid underlying value and potential for steady appreciation with minimal immediate investment.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the lot size compare to others?
The lot is 4,395 sqft, which is smaller than most on Eastmount Drive and in Dakota Crossing. This means less outdoor maintenance but also less private yard space.

2. Is the home older or newer for the area?
Built in 1993, it is slightly newer than the city-wide average but typical for this specific street and neighbourhood, placing it in the middle of its local peer group.

3. What does the "above average" assessed value indicate?
With an assessed value that ranks in the top 27% on its street and top 23% city-wide, the property is officially valued higher than many comparable homes. This often reflects desirable updates, good condition, or a favourable location within the area.

4. Who might this property not suit?
Buyers prioritizing a large backyard for gardening or recreation, or those needing extensive square footage on the main floor, may find the lot and living area dimensions limiting.

5. How does the last sale price relate to its current value?
It last sold for $40,600 in October 2020. The current assessed value is higher, which reflects market changes and any improvements made since that sale. It is important to have a current market evaluation to understand today's likely selling price.
