Property Summary: 67 Fordham Bay, Fort Richmond, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in Fort Richmond presents a solid, above-average offering in several key metrics. Its primary appeal lies in its generous 1,758 sqft of living space, which ranks in the top 21% for the neighbourhood, providing ample room for a growing family or those who value spaciousness. The home sits on a large 6,826 sqft lot, which is notably above the city-wide average, offering excellent outdoor potential. A significant feature is the renovated basement, adding valuable finished living area. The attached garage and the home’s assessed value, which ranks in the top 9% on its own street, underscore its standing as a substantial property in the area.

Built in 1966, the home is a classic of its era, meaning buyers should be prepared for the potential maintenance or updating that comes with character. Its appeal is practical and grounded: it suits buyers looking for established neighbourhood charm, generous indoor and outdoor space, and a home with a renovated lower level ready for use. It’s particularly well-suited for families who need the room and appreciate a large yard, or for value-conscious buyers seeking a home with above-average square footage and lot size relative to its peer group in Winnipeg.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s age affect its value?
Built in 1966, the home is around the average age for Winnipeg. This means it may have classic, durable construction but could also require updates to major systems (like plumbing, electrical, or windows) that reach the end of their lifespan. The renovated basement is a positive modernizing factor.

2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the selling price?
Not directly. The assessed value of $47.5k (where 'k' likely represents a unit of measurement in the data) is for municipal tax purposes and ranks highly compared to neighbours. However, the actual market price is determined by recent sales, condition, and demand. The last recorded sale was in late 2017.

3. What does the "above average" lot size actually mean for me?
At 6,826 sqft, the lot is larger than most in the city. This provides more privacy, space for gardening, play structures, or future additions like a deck or shed, which can be a major advantage over newer subdivisions with smaller lots.

4. The home ranks well for space and value, but lower for year built in Fort Richmond. Why?
This indicates that while the home itself is spacious and well-assessed, the immediate Fort Richmond area has many newer homes (the neighbourhood average build year is 1972). This suggests a mixed, established community where this property is one of the older, but more substantial, homes on the block.

5. How can I find out the exact historical sale prices?
