Property Overview: 540 Leila Avenue, Garden City, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This one-storey home on Leila Avenue is a practical and solid offering in the Garden City neighbourhood. Its key characteristic is a generous 6,683 sqft lot, which is notably larger than most in the immediate area and across Winnipeg, providing valuable outdoor space and potential. The 1,179 sqft living area is comfortably average for the street and neighbourhood. A recently renovated basement adds modern living space, and the detached garage offers flexibility.
The appeal lies in its balance and established setting. It’s a home that doesn’t stand out for size or assessed value but offers a well-above-average yard in a mature, quiet area. Built in 1970, it is actually among the newer homes in Garden City, suggesting updated infrastructure compared to many neighbours. It suits first-time buyers looking for a manageable single-level layout with room to grow outdoors, or downsizers seeking a stable neighbourhood with a low-maintenance footprint but a spacious lot for gardening or privacy. It’s a property for those who value land size over a show-stopping house.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the property compare to others nearby?
The home is very typical for Leila Avenue in terms of living space, age, and value. Its standout feature is the land size, which is in the top 8% on the street, meaning you get a significantly larger yard than most direct neighbours.
2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. A viewing is essential to see the quality, layout, and whether it includes a legal suite, additional bedrooms, or simply finished living space.
3. Is the assessed value a good indicator of the listing price?
Not directly. The provided assessed value of $37.4k is for municipal tax purposes and is not a market valuation. Market value is determined by recent sales of comparable homes. The data shows this assessment is above average for Garden City, but a real estate agent can provide a current market analysis.
4. What are the implications of the home being "among the newer" in Garden City?
While built in 1970, it ranks in the top 3% for age in Garden City, meaning the neighbourhood overall is older. This could suggest newer wiring, plumbing, or foundations compared to many area homes, potentially reducing immediate repair needs.
5. What is the neighbourhood like?
Garden City is a long-established, family-oriented neighbourhood in northwest Winnipeg. This property’s location on Leila Avenue suggests a quiet, residential street with similar single-family homes, offering a classic Winnipeg community feel.
