Property Summary: 869 Elmhurst Road, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a unique property defined by its exceptionally large, flat lot of over 30,500 square feet in the established Elmhurst neighborhood. The appeal lies almost entirely in the land itself—a rare, blank canvas of that size within the city. The existing 636 sqft one-storey home, built in 1950, is modest and ranks very low in terms of living area compared to others. This presents the property as a prime redevelopment opportunity or a chance for a custom, sprawling build. Its high percentile rankings for lot size (top 1% in Winnipeg) confirm its standout characteristic.
It would best suit a buyer with a clear vision: a builder or developer looking for a infill project, or an individual or family planning to construct a custom dream home tailored to their needs. It is not a move-in-ready solution for someone seeking immediate, modern living space. A thoughtful perspective is the long-term value of securing a large parcel in a mature neighborhood, which offers stability and established greenery that new subdivisions often lack for decades.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the existing house livable while planning a rebuild?
The details suggest the 636 sqft home is very small and dated. It may be functional as a basic shelter or temporary setup during planning, but buyers should budget for significant updates or expect it to be a tear-down candidate.
2. What are the zoning regulations for this lot?
This is the most critical question. The potential for subdividing the large lot or building a new, larger home depends entirely on City of Winnipeg zoning bylaws (R1, R2, etc.). A buyer must verify this before purchase.
3. Why is the assessed value relatively moderate given the lot size?
Municipal assessments typically weigh the existing structure heavily. The low square footage and age of the home keep the assessment down, which can be an advantage for property taxes in the short term, but the market price will reflect the land's development potential.
4. Are utilities and services sufficient for a new, larger home?
With a build from 1950, it's important to confirm the capacity and condition of water, sewer, electrical, and gas connections to ensure they can support a modern, larger residence or multiple units if subdivision is allowed.
5. What is the typical character of the Elmhurst neighborhood?
As an established area with homes from the mid-20th century, the neighborhood is likely seeing a mix of original homes and newer redevelopments. Understanding this context helps in designing a new home that fits or thoughtfully stands out.
