Property Overview: 70 Primrose Crescent, Garden City, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This one-storey home at 70 Primrose Crescent is a classic 1958 bungalow situated on a 5,605 sqft lot in Winnipeg's Garden City neighbourhood. With 1,042 sqft of living space and a renovated basement, it presents a practical, single-level layout. A detached garage adds utility. The home’s assessed value is in line with area averages, suggesting a stable, mid-market position.

Its primary appeal lies in its efficient scale and established location. For its immediate street and neighbourhood, the living area is compact, which can mean lower utility costs and less maintenance—a practical choice rather than a sprawling one. The lot size is also modest for the area, offering a manageable yard. The home suits first-time buyers seeking an entry point into a stable community, downsizers looking for a manageable single-level living space without the premium of a newer build, or value-focused investors. A thoughtful perspective is that its "below average" size metrics on its street could represent an opportunity for efficient living without overpaying for space you may not need, while the renovated basement adds functional living area not fully reflected in the main square footage.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s size compare practically?
While the living area is below the average for Primrose Crescent and Garden City, the renovated basement effectively expands the usable space. The total functional area is greater than the listed 1,042 sqft.

2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value ($33.60k) is a municipal tax valuation. The last recorded sale (2022) was in the $34.5k-$37.5k range. Market conditions, the home’s updated condition, and buyer demand will determine the final price.

3. What are the implications of the home’s age?
Built in 1958, it is older than many homes on its street. This warrants a careful review of major systems (roof, plumbing, electrical, foundation) for updates or needed repairs, though the basement renovation may have addressed some items.

4. Who might the detached garage benefit?
A detached garage is ideal for hobbyists, those needing workshop space, or owners wanting separation between vehicle storage and the main house. It can also provide flexible storage solutions.

5. How can I verify the exact historical sale prices?
The exact sold prices are not publicly displayed in detail. The listing service offers to provide this information directly via email upon request, as noted in the property details.
