Property Overview: 78 Thornhill Bay, Fort Richmond, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in Fort Richmond presents a practical and comfortable living proposition. Built in 1977, it is notably newer than most homes on its street and in the wider area, which can be a significant advantage for maintenance and systems. With 1,408 sqft of living space and a renovated basement, it offers functional room for a small family or couple. The detached garage provides flexible storage or workshop space.

The primary appeal lies in its balanced, middle-of-the-road metrics. It isn't an outlier in size or value, but sits reliably around area averages, suggesting a stable investment in a well-established neighbourhood. The lot, while slightly below average in size for Fort Richmond, is still generous by city-wide standards. This property would suit first-time homebuyers, downsizers, or pragmatic investors looking for a turnkey home in a mature community without extreme peaks or valleys in its profile. Its relative newness for the area is a subtle but valuable asset for those wary of the upkeep common in older Winnipeg homes.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to its neighbours?
The home’s assessed value is around average for both Thornhill Bay street and the broader Fort Richmond area, indicating it is priced consistently within its immediate market.

2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. A viewing or inquiry with the seller is necessary to determine the finish quality, layout, and whether it includes a legal suite or additional living space.

3. Is the lot size a disadvantage?
At just under 6,000 sqft, the lot is smaller than many in Fort Richmond but is close to the Winnipeg average. It offers ample yard space for gardening or recreation while potentially requiring less maintenance than larger plots.

4. How current are the sold price figures shown?
The last recorded sale was in August 2020. The provided price range is an estimate based on public data. For the exact historical sale price, you must request the information directly via the provided email service.

5. What are the implications of the home being newer than others on the street?
A 1977 build date means major components like plumbing, electrical, and the foundation may be in better condition than those in older, wartime-era homes common in Winnipeg. This can translate to lower immediate repair costs and potentially higher energy efficiency.
