Property Overview
This two-storey home at 257 Barlow Crescent in Winnipeg's Dakota Crossing neighbourhood presents a well-maintained and practical family living space. Built in 1993, its key characteristics include 1,696 sqft of living area, a renovated basement, and an attached garage on a 5,274 sqft lot. The home’s appeal lies in its established, no-surprises foundation. It offers above-average interior space for Winnipeg overall, while fitting comfortably within the averages for its immediate area—suggesting a home that is both spacious and in line with neighbourhood norms. The renovated basement adds valuable flexible space.
It would suit buyers looking for a move-in ready family home in a mature neighbourhood without the premium of a brand-new build. It’s particularly suited for those who value practicality over a sprawling lot, as the property offers a manageable yard. A thoughtful perspective is that this home represents a "known quantity": its age and consistent assessment history provide a clear picture of its standing, potentially offering a sense of stability and predictability for a buyer.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does this home compare in size to others nearby?

Is the lot size typical for the area?
The 5,274 sqft lot is below the average for Barlow Crescent itself but is around the average for the Dakota Crossing neighbourhood overall. It provides a manageable outdoor space without the upkeep of a larger yard.
What does the assessed value tell us?
The assessed value of $49.30k is around average for both the street and the neighbourhood, but ranks above average city-wide. This indicates the home holds solid value within its established community context.
The home was built in 1993. What does that mean for a buyer?
