Key Characteristics & Appeal

This spacious two-storey home in Eric Coy sits on a large, approximately 9,150 sqft lot, offering a sense of privacy and room to breathe that is less common in newer subdivisions. Built in 1984, the home has been well-maintained, ranking newer than most houses in its immediate area. With over 2,050 sqft of living space, a finished basement, an in-ground pool, and an attached garage, it is a fully-equipped family home.

Its appeal lies in offering established, substantial living without sacrificing modern comforts. The property consistently ranks in the top tiers of its neighborhood and city-wide for key metrics like lot size, living area, and assessed value, indicating a home that stands out in its peer group. It’s not just a house, but a property with a proven footprint and presence in the community.

This home would best suit a buyer looking for a turnkey property with room for a growing or multi-generational family. It’s ideal for those who value outdoor space for recreation or gardening and envision summer days by the private pool. It’s a match for someone seeking a home in a mature neighborhood where the property itself—its size, condition, and amenities—offers more inherent value than a brand-new build in a developing area.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the age of the home (1984) affect its value and upkeep?
While 42 years old, the home ranks newer than 80% of houses in its community and 66% across Winnipeg, suggesting it is among the more updated homes of its vintage. Buyers should expect standard maintenance for a house of this age but can be confident it is not an outlier in terms of being dated.

2. The lot is large, but how does it compare practically?
At over 9,000 sqft, the lot is significantly larger than average, placing it in the top 8% of all residential properties in Winnipeg. This translates to exceptional backyard space for the pool, play structures, or gardens, with a greater buffer from neighbors.

3. What do the ranking percentages actually mean for a buyer?
They are a quick, data-driven way to see how this property compares to others. For example, being in the top 5% of Winnipeg for assessed value doesn't just mean it's expensive; it signals that for its type, size, and area, the market recognizes a premium value relative to the vast majority of homes in the city.

4. Is the pool a major selling point or a liability?
It is a central feature that defines the property's summer lifestyle appeal. It will attract buyers looking for this specific amenity but requires a committed owner for opening, closing, maintenance, and safety considerations. It's a valued asset for the right buyer.

5. Who is the typical buyer for this home?
The data suggests the buyer is likely looking for established space and stability. They are trading the possibility of a brand-new home for the immediate benefits of a larger, well-ranked lot and mature neighborhood, often prioritizing living space and outdoor amenities over a more modern construction date.
