Property Overview: 68 Gilia Drive, Garden City, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 3-level split home, built in 1961, presents a grounded opportunity in Winnipeg's Garden City neighborhood. With 1,089 sqft of living space and a renovated basement, it offers functional, no-frills living. Its key appeal lies in its relative positioning: while the house itself is modest in size, it sits on a lot that is larger than most on its street, providing above-average outdoor space for the immediate area. The detached garage adds practical utility.
The home suits first-time buyers or practical downsizers looking for an entry point into a stable neighborhood without premium pricing. Its assessed value is consistently around or below the average for its local context, suggesting a potentially manageable property tax burden. A thoughtful perspective is that this property represents a "middle-of-the-road" option in many metrics—it’s not the newest, largest, or most valuable home on the block, but it avoids the extremes of being the smallest or most dated. This can be an advantage for buyers seeking a balanced, low-drama purchase in a well-established area.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home’s size compare to others nearby?
At 1,089 sqft, the living area is slightly below the average for both Gilia Drive and the broader Garden City area, placing it in a comfortable, middle range. It offers adequate space without being oversized.
2. What is the significance of the lot size?
The 5,498 sqft lot is a standout feature for this specific street, ranking in the top 30% locally. This means you likely get more yard space than many of your immediate neighbors, which is a less common find in older subdivisions.
3. The home was built in 1961. What should I consider?
While the basement has been renovated, the core structure is 65 years old. A thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition of major aging components like the roof, plumbing, and electrical systems, which may need attention or updating.
4. How is the assessed value context helpful?
The assessed value (~$33k) is below the Garden City average, which typically correlates with lower property taxes. This can make the ongoing cost of ownership more predictable and affordable compared to higher-assessed homes in the same neighborhood.
5. Can I get the exact historical sale price?
Yes, but not automatically displayed. The listed sale range for November 2016 is an estimate from public data. The exact sale price can be requested via email from the site, which provides the figure manually without using your email for marketing spam.
