Property Overview
68 Queensbury Bay is a well-maintained one-storey home in the Dakota Crossing neighborhood of Winnipeg. Built in 1987, it features a renovated basement and a detached garage on a 4,853 sqft lot. With 1,040 sqft of living space and a current assessed value of $40,400, it presents a specific value proposition in the local market.
Key Characteristics & Buyer Appeal
This home’s primary appeal lies in its balance of updates and established neighborhood character. The renovated basement adds functional living space, a key advantage for a one-storey layout. Its assessed value is notably below average for both its immediate street and the Dakota Crossing area, which may indicate a value opportunity for a buyer compared to neighboring homes.
The data reveals some thoughtful perspectives. While the living area is modest for the street, the home is actually one of the newer builds on Queensbury Bay, suggesting potentially fewer age-related issues than many neighbors. Furthermore, its city-wide assessed value ranking is stronger than its local ranking, hinting that its valuation is more competitive across Winnipeg than within its own micro-market.
This property would best suit first-time buyers, downsizers, or practical investors seeking an entry into a stable neighborhood with some modern touches already in place. It’s for those who prioritize a move-in ready basement and a newer build year over having a larger-than-average footprint for the area.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this a good value for the neighborhood?
Based on the assessed value data, this home is priced below the average for both Queensbury Bay and the wider Dakota Crossing area, suggesting it could represent a relative value purchase within this specific location.
2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. A viewing or inquiry with the listing agent is necessary to determine the finishes, layout, and whether it includes legal secondary suites or additional bedrooms.
3. How does the home's size compare to others?
With 1,040 sqft of living area, this home is below the average size for other homes on its street and in Dakota Crossing. However, it is very close to the average size for a home across the entire city of Winnipeg.
4. What are the implications of the detached garage?
A detached garage offers flexibility for workshop use or storage separate from the house but requires going outdoors to access your vehicle, a consideration during Winnipeg winters.
5. When was it last sold, and for how much?
The property last sold in March 2018 for $32,500. This historical price provides context for the current assessed value and market trajectory.
