Property Overview: 268 Barlow Crescent, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This two-storey home in Dakota Crossing presents a practical and updated living space. Its key features include a renovated basement, an attached garage, and a private pool—a notable amenity for the area. With 1,512 sqft of living space, the home is moderately sized, offering a comfortable footprint that is above average compared to the wider city but more compact within its immediate neighbourhood.
The appeal lies in its move-in readiness and desirable amenities within a mature, established community. The renovated basement adds flexible living space, while the pool offers immediate summer recreation without the need for a community membership. The home’s assessed value ranks consistently above average across street, neighbourhood, and city comparisons, suggesting a solid valuation foundation.
This property would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a low-maintenance home with character and private outdoor leisure space. It’s also a fit for those who value an established neighbourhood with larger, older trees and settled streetscapes over a brand-new development. A thoughtful perspective: while the lot is smaller than some on the street, this can translate to less yard work, focusing the appeal on the home’s interior updates and pool area for entertainment.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home’s size compare to the area?
At 1,512 sqft, the living area is slightly below the average for Barlow Crescent itself but is above the average for Winnipeg as a whole. It offers a comfortable size for a couple or small family.
2. What does the “above average” assessed value indicate?
The assessed value ranks in the top 23-30% compared to local peers, which typically suggests the property is valued higher than many surrounding homes. This can reflect updates, lot desirability, or the inclusion of amenities like the pool.
3. The home was built in 1991. What should I consider?
Homes from this era often feature modern wiring and insulation standards but are reaching the age where original components, like the roof, windows, or major mechanical systems, may need inspection or planned replacement.
4. Is the pool a major factor in value and upkeep?
Yes. A private pool is a significant lifestyle amenity that adds to enjoyment and appeal, but prospective buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance, seasonal opening/closing, and potential increases in insurance and utility costs.
5. How does the recent 2022 sale price relate to the current assessed value?
The property sold for $64.60k in August 2022, a price that ranked in the top 7% for the street at that time. The current assessed value is $52.30k. It’s important to understand that a past sale price reflects the market conditions of that specific time, while the assessed value is for municipal tax purposes; neither guarantees the current market value.
