Property Overview
79 Winterhaven Drive is a spacious two-storey home in Winnipeg's Dakota Crossing neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in offering above-average space and modern updates within a well-established community. The home features 2,286 sqft of living area, which places it in the top 19% for size on its own street and the top 3-5% within the wider neighborhood and city. It includes an attached garage and a renovated basement. Built in 2002, the home is newer than the average Winnipeg property, offering a balance of contemporary construction without being brand-new. The lot is a standard size for the area at just under 5,500 sqft.
This property would best suit buyers looking for move-in readiness with ample interior space, particularly families or those who value room to grow. Its strong rankings for living area and assessed value suggest a home that stands out in its peer group for substance over sheer lot size. The 2016 sale price, notably lower than the current assessed value, indicates significant appreciation, which may appeal to value-conscious buyers interested in a neighborhood with a strong trajectory.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the home’s size compare practically?
At 2,286 sqft, it is substantially larger than the average home in both Dakota Crossing (~1,483 sqft) and Winnipeg overall (~1,342 sqft). This means more room for dedicated offices, family living areas, or storage without the footprint of an oversized lot.
What does the “renovated basement” include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. A professional inspection is recommended to determine the finish quality, permits, and whether it includes added bedrooms, a legal suite, or simply finished living space.
Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the listing price?
The assessed value of $62.40k is a municipal tax assessment, not a market valuation. Market value is determined by current sale prices of similar homes. The assessment does, however, show the home is consistently ranked in the top tiers for value among its peers.
How does the 2016 sale price relate to today’s market?
The home sold for $46.50k in 2016. The increase to its current assessed value suggests strong market appreciation over eight years, which is a positive indicator of the area’s desirability and the property’s maintained value.
What is the neighborhood character of Dakota Crossing?
With most homes built around the early 2000s, Dakota Crossing offers a settled, suburban feel with mature landscaping, but with homes newer than the city’s average. The property rankings suggest it’s a neighborhood of above-average sized homes, appealing to those seeking established communities with spacious interiors.
