Property Overview
This 1971-built, single-storey home in Elmhurst presents a unique blend of space, privacy, and established charm. Its most defining feature is the exceptionally large, nearly 10,000 sqft lot, placing it in the top tier of properties locally for land size. The home includes a finished basement, an in-ground pool, and a split garage. With just over 1,000 sqft of living space above grade, the floor plan is practical rather than expansive, suggesting a focus on efficient living with the bonus of significant outdoor amenities. The property's assessed value sits comfortably above the median for Winnipeg, indicating a solid foundation of perceived worth.
Its appeal lies in the rare opportunity for a low-maintenance, single-level lifestyle paired with the privacy and potential of a massive, resort-style backyard. It suits buyers who prioritize outdoor living and entertaining space over a large interior footprint—perfect for families seeking a private summer oasis, or for those who envision future additions like a workshop or extensive gardens. It’s a property where the true value is arguably outside the walls: a quiet retreat that still ranks highly for land value within the city.
Key Questions for Consideration
1. What is the condition and ongoing cost of the pool?
Given the home's age and the climate, prospective buyers should budget for a professional inspection of the pool's structure, liner, and mechanical systems. Understanding the seasonal opening/closing costs, typical maintenance, and insurance implications is essential.
2. How does the finished basement add to the living space?
The listing notes a finished basement. It's important to clarify the ceiling height, the quality of the finish, and whether it includes additional bedrooms or legal egress, as this significantly impacts the home's functional space.
3. Is the large lot a benefit or a burden?
While the nearly quarter-acre lot offers exceptional privacy and space, it also requires considerable upkeep—mowing, landscaping, and snow removal. Buyers should realistically assess the time and cost required to maintain it.
4. How do the rankings translate to real-world value?
The property ranks very high for lot size but lower for living area and age. This suggests you are investing primarily in the land and location. It's wise to consider if this aligns with your long-term needs versus opting for a newer home with less land.
5. What is the neighbourhood character of this part of Elmhurst?
With the home built in 1971, the street is likely mature and established. Researching the mix of long-term residents versus new buyers, and the general upkeep of nearby properties, will give a good sense of the community's stability and character.
