Highlights & common questions: 6 Oswald Bay, Winnipeg

Property Overview

6 Oswald Bay is a well-established, single-story family home in Winnipeg's Elmhurst neighborhood. Built in 1978, it sits on a generous, mature lot of nearly 6,800 square feet. The home's key features include a fully finished basement, an in-ground swimming pool, and an attached garage. With 1,588 square feet of living space, it ranks above the majority of Winnipeg homes for size and assessed value, suggesting a solid, above-average offering for its era.

Its appeal lies in its established setting and private outdoor space, anchored by the pool—a rare amenity that creates a personal resort-like atmosphere in the summer months. The home suits buyers looking for a move-in-ready property with classic layout in a quiet neighborhood, who value space for family life and entertaining over modern, open-concept design. It’s particularly well-matched for those who appreciate the character and larger lot sizes of older communities and are willing to manage the upkeep that comes with a pool and a home of this age. A less obvious perspective is its strong ranking in assessed value relative to the city and community, which often indicates desirable location attributes and a property that has been well-maintained or updated over time.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the significance of the property's various rankings?
The rankings compare this home to others on its street, in Elmhurst, and across all of Winnipeg for metrics like lot size, age, living area, and assessed value. For example, ranking in the top 19% city-wide for lot size means it has a larger yard than most Winnipeg homes, adding privacy and space.

2. Are there any concerns with a home built in 1978?
As with any home nearly 50 years old, a thorough inspection is essential. Key focus areas would be the roof, windows, major systems (heating, electrical, plumbing), and ensuring any past updates meet current standards. The age also means the neighborhood's trees and landscaping are likely mature and beautiful, but may require attention.

3. What should I consider with the in-ground pool?
Beyond the obvious appeal, consider the operational season, ongoing maintenance costs (chemicals, cleaning, opening/closing), insurance implications, and utility costs for pumping and heating. It's a fantastic feature but represents a dedicated budget line and responsibility.

4. How does the finished basement affect the living space?
The 1,588 sq ft living area includes the finished basement, which adds versatile space for recreation, guests, or a home office. It's important to clarify the layout, ceiling height, and whether it has proper egress windows, as this impacts both livability and safety.

5. What does the high assessment value relative to the community indicate?
An assessed value that ranks in the top 20% of Elmhurst suggests the municipal assessor views this property as one of the more valuable in the area. This can be due to its larger lot, updates, the pool amenity, or its specific location. It's a positive indicator but is not a direct marker of market sale price.
