Property Overview: 51 Al Thompson Drive, Grassie, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in Grassie presents a balanced, move-in-ready opportunity. Built in 2008, it offers modern construction without the premium of a brand-new build. The 1,664 sqft living space is comfortably above the Winnipeg average, providing ample room for a growing family or those who value space. A key feature is the renovated basement, which adds immediate functional living area without the need for a major project. The attached garage is a practical asset for the Prairie climate.

The home’s primary appeal lies in its solid, middle-of-the-road positioning within its community. The data shows it consistently ranks around the average for its immediate street and the broader Grassie area in terms of size, value, and age, suggesting it’s a typical and stable offering for the neighbourhood. However, when viewed citywide, it stands above average in living space and assessed value, indicating you get more house for your dollar compared to many parts of Winnipeg. The lot size is smaller than typical for Grassie, which could mean less yard maintenance—a perk for some—but may be a consideration for those wanting extensive outdoor space.

This property would suit first-time buyers looking for a modern, low-hassle home, or growing families seeking established community amenities without an outdated house. It’s also a sensible choice for value-focused buyers who appreciate a home that performs well on broader city metrics while being a standard, well-kept property on its own street.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to others nearby?
Based on assessed value, this home is very typical for Al Thompson Drive and the Grassie area, sitting close to the neighbourhood average. This suggests its municipal valuation is in line with local market expectations.

2. Is the lot size a concern?
The land area is smaller than many lots in Grassie. This translates to less yard maintenance, which can be a benefit. However, if a large private outdoor space or extensive gardening is a priority, it’s worth noting.

3. What does "above average citywide" mean for a home in the suburbs?
While the home is average for Grassie, its living space and assessed value rank above the median for all of Winnipeg. This highlights that you are getting a proportionally larger, more valuable property compared to the stock of older or smaller homes across the entire city.

4. Can I find out the exact historical sale price?
The listed sale price from 2020 is a public range. For the exact figure, you can request it via email from the listing source. They provide this data manually and state they do not use email addresses for unsolicited marketing.

5. What are the implications of the renovated basement?
A renovated basement adds immediate liveable square footage, potentially for a family room, home office, or guest space. It means a major cosmetic or structural project is already complete, though as with any renovation, checking the quality and permits (if applicable) during a home inspection is always recommended.
