Highlights & common questions: 289 Ravensden Drive, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This two-storey home at 289 Ravensden Drive in Winnipeg's Dakota Crossing neighborhood presents a modern, low-maintenance living option. Built in 2017, it is notably newer than most homes in the area and citywide. Its key appeal lies in its move-in-ready condition featuring a renovated basement and an attached garage. The 1,840 sqft living space is comfortably above average for the local area, offering ample room without being excessive. It suits buyers seeking a contemporary home in a established community, particularly those who prioritize newer construction (and thus potentially lower immediate maintenance) over a large yard, as the lot size is more compact compared to neighbors.

A thoughtful perspective is its position as a "high-efficiency" property within its streetscape. While the lot is smaller, the home itself offers more modern interior space and systems than many surrounding properties. It would likely appeal to professionals, small families, or downsizers looking for a modern layout and finishes without the footprint or upkeep of an older, larger lot. The recent sale history indicates strong market recognition for this combination of newness and location.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the smaller lot size a significant drawback?
While the land area is below average for Dakota Crossing, it translates to less yard maintenance. For buyers who prefer spending time indoors or on patios/decks rather than gardening or lawn care, this can be a practical benefit.

2. How does the assessed value relate to the recent sale prices?
The assessed value is a municipal calculation for tax purposes. The home has recently sold above this assessed value, which is common in active markets and reflects what buyers are currently willing to pay.

3. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the details. A buyer should inquire whether it is a legal suite, a recreational space, or additional bedrooms, and request documentation on any permits.

4. Why have there been two recent sales (2023 and 2024)?
The property has changed hands twice in a short period. This isn't inherently negative but is a point for due diligence. A buyer may want to understand the reasons through their agent to ensure there are no undisclosed issues with the property.

5. How does this home compare to others on the same street?
The data shows it is newer and has a higher assessed value than most on Ravensden Drive, but on a smaller lot. This suggests you are paying a premium for the home's modern build and condition rather than for land.
