Property Overview: 59 Macalester Bay, Fort Richmond, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in Fort Richmond is a practical and well-positioned property. Built in 1965, it offers 1,525 sqft of living space with a renovated basement and an attached garage. The home presents a balanced profile: its living space is above the city-wide average, offering more room than many Winnipeg homes, while its assessed value is consistently around the average for its immediate street, neighborhood, and city. A standout feature is the 6,150 sqft lot, which is notably larger than most city-wide properties, offering valuable outdoor space.

The appeal lies in its solid, no-surprises positioning. It’s not the newest or largest on its block, but it holds its own with recent updates and a very generous yard for an established neighborhood. It suits buyers looking for a move-in-ready, single-family home with room to grow outdoors, without the premium price tag of a newly built property. It would particularly fit first-time buyers or downsizers who want the space and stability of a mature Fort Richmond community, value a larger lot for gardening or privacy, and appreciate a home that aligns with typical market values rather than standing out as an extreme.


Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to others in the area?
The assessed value is consistently around the average—neither among the highest nor the lowest—when compared to homes on the same street, in Fort Richmond, and across Winnipeg. This suggests a stable, market-aligned valuation.

2. Is the lot size a pro or a con?
It depends on your priorities. The lot is below the average size for Macalester Bay and Fort Richmond, meaning some neighbors have larger yards. However, it remains above the city-wide average, offering more outdoor space than most Winnipeg homes. It’s a very good-sized city lot, just not the largest on the block.

3. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope or finish. This is a key detail to clarify with the seller or agent to understand if it’s a finished living space, updated utilities, or both.

4. The home was built in 1965. What should I consider?
While the home is older than many in Fort Richmond, it is newer than most on its specific street. This age typically means mature trees and established infrastructure. A thorough inspection is recommended to understand the condition of major aging components like the roof, plumbing, and electrical systems, which may have been updated over time.

5. Can I find out the exact historical sale price?
Yes, but not directly on the public listing. The provided data shows a sold price range from June 2020. To obtain the exact sale price, you must request it via email from the listing service, which they provide manually.
