Property Overview: 52 Al Thompson Drive, Grassie, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This bi-level home at 52 Al Thompson Drive presents a practical and value-conscious opportunity in Winnipeg's Grassie neighborhood. Built in 2009, it offers modern construction fundamentals without the premium of a brand-new build. The home’s key physical attributes include 1,292 sqft of living space, a renovated basement, an attached garage, and a notably generous 7,354 sqft lot—a standout feature that ranks well above average for the immediate street and the wider city.

The primary appeal lies in its balance and potential. While the living space is functional rather than expansive, the large lot provides valuable outdoor space and future flexibility, whether for gardening, recreation, or expansion. The renovated basement adds immediate usable square footage. Its assessed value positions it as a strong value proposition city-wide, suggesting a relatively lower property tax burden compared to many Winnipeg homes.

This property would suit first-time buyers seeking a manageable, modern home with room to grow outdoors, or value-focused buyers who prioritize land size and a solid building foundation over sheer interior volume. It’s a home that offers a stable entry point into the market with the added benefit of a blank-canvas yard.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s size compare to others?
At 1,292 sqft, the living area is slightly below average for homes on Al Thompson Drive itself but is generally on par with averages for the broader Grassie area and the city. The renovated basement effectively adds to the usable space.

2. What is the significance of the lot size?
The 7,354 sqft lot is a key asset. It places the property in the top 20% on its own street and top 14% city-wide for land area. This means more private outdoor space than most comparable properties.

3. What does the assessed value tell me?
With an assessed value of $49.90k, this home ranks in the top 20% city-wide, indicating its official valuation is higher than 80% of Winnipeg homes. This often correlates with a desirable assessment for resale but suggests property taxes may be comparatively lower than for homes with higher assessments.

4. Is the 2009 build date an advantage?
Yes. A 2009 build means major components like the roof, windows, and mechanical systems are likely still within a reasonable lifespan, reducing the risk of immediate costly replacements. It ranks as newer than 88% of homes across Winnipeg.

5. Where can I find the exact historical sale price?
The listed sale price ranges are based on public data. To obtain the precise sale price from the last transaction, you can request it via email from the listing source. They provide this detail manually and state they do not use email addresses for unsolicited marketing.
