Property Overview & Appeal

This 1983-built, one-storey home in Elmhurst offers a practical and comfortable living space on a generous, mature lot. Its key characteristics include a fully finished basement, an attached garage, and 1,320 sqft of living space. The appeal lies in its established neighbourhood setting combined with a home that ranks notably newer than most in its immediate area, suggesting well-maintained or updated fundamentals. The lot size is a significant asset, offering ample outdoor space relative to many city properties.

It would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking single-level living without a cramped yard, as well as value-focused buyers who prioritize land size and a solid, move-in-ready foundation over a brand-new build. A thoughtful perspective is that while the interior space is average for the area, the property's high percentile rankings for lot size, age, and assessed value indicate a competitively positioned asset that may offer stability and outdoor potential not found in newer, denser subdivisions.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the "percentile ranking" data mean?
It shows how this property compares to others in its immediate street, broader community, and all of Winnipeg. For example, being newer than 97% of houses on its street indicates it is one of the most recently built homes in that specific location, which is often a positive sign of its condition relative to neighbours.

2. Is the basement included in the 1,320 sqft living area?
No, the 1,320 sqft refers to the above-ground living space. The basement is listed as finished, providing additional usable space that is not counted in that official figure.

3. The home ranks highly for its age but lower for size within the community. What does this suggest?
This suggests a well-kept or updated property that may have a modernized interior (mechanical, roof, windows) on a desirable lot, but its floor plan is more compact than many houses in the wider Elmhurst area. It highlights a trade-off between a newer structure and sheer interior square footage.

4. How should I interpret the assessed value ranking?
The assessment ranks higher than the living area ranking, meaning the city assesses its overall value more favorably compared to other homes than it does its size alone. This can reflect the value of the large lot, the finished basement, the home's condition, or recent market activity for similar properties in the area.

5. What is the significance of the lot size?
At nearly 5,000 sqft, the lot is a key feature. It provides substantial outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or future additions like a deck or shed—a premium in many mature neighbourhoods where lots are often smaller. This is a primary contributor to the property's overall value and appeal.
