Property Overview: 185 Gilia Drive, Garden City, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,292 sqft, three-level split home, built in 1960, presents a solid and thoughtfully updated opportunity in Winnipeg's Garden City neighbourhood. Its key appeal lies in its above-average condition and value within its immediate area. The home features a renovated basement, adding functional living space, and sits on a 5,453 sqft lot. The data suggests a property that has been well-maintained and assessed favorably compared to its direct neighbours—its assessed value ranks in the top 16% on its own street. While the lot size is slightly smaller than the Garden City average, the home's living space is efficiently sized and ranks above average locally.

This property would suit practical buyers looking for a move-in-ready home with modernized basics in a established neighbourhood. It’s ideal for first-time homeowners, small families, or downsizers who value a sense of community and prefer a home that stands out positively on its own block in terms of upkeep and assessment value. The lack of a garage may appeal to those seeking lower maintenance or the opportunity to add a structure later, while the renovated basement offers immediate flexibility for recreation, guests, or a home office.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to the area?
The home’s assessed value is notably above the average for both Gilia Drive and the wider Garden City area, suggesting it is in better condition or has more desirable features than many comparable local properties.

2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. This is a key detail to clarify with the seller or agent, as it could range from updated finishes to a fully developed living space with proper permits.

3. Is there potential to add a garage?
While the property has no garage, the lot size may allow for the addition of a driveway and detached garage, subject to local zoning bylaws and setback requirements. This is a common consideration for homes of this era in the area.

4. The home last sold in 2018. What might that indicate?
The six-year ownership period suggests the sellers are not flipping the property quickly, which can indicate a stable ownership history. It aligns with a period of market appreciation, and the exact sale price (available by request) would help gauge the current asking price context.

5. How does the lot size impact future plans?
At just over 5,400 sqft, the lot is functional but below the neighbourhood average. This is worth considering if you dream of extensive additions, a large deck, or a sprawling garden, as space may be more limited compared to other lots in Garden City.
