Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in Inkster Gardens is a modern property, built in 2019, offering move-in readiness without the immediate concerns of an aging structure. Its primary appeal lies in its generous and efficient layout. With over 2,000 sqft of living space, it ranks well above average for size both in its immediate neighborhood and citywide, providing ample room for a growing family or those who value spaciousness. The home features an attached garage and a full, unrenovated basement, presenting a clean canvas for future customization.

The property suits buyers seeking a relatively new home in a well-established area, who prioritize interior space over a large yard. The lot is standard for the street but smaller than the Winnipeg average, suggesting a lower-maintenance exterior. A thoughtful perspective is that this home represents a balance: it offers modern construction and above-average square footage in a neighborhood where many homes are older, potentially providing a unique blend of new-home amenities within a mature community setting. It would particularly suit practical buyers who want to avoid the surprises of an older home and value the statistical certainty of its above-average size and recent build date.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this a good value for the area?
Based on assessed value, the property sits around average for its specific street but is above average for the broader Inkster Gardens area and citywide. This suggests you are paying for the home's modern build and larger size relative to many other homes in the district.

2. What is the potential for future expansion or renovation?
The home has a full, unrenovated basement, which offers significant potential for adding finished living space, a rental suite, or specialized rooms. The lot size is typical for the street, so any major exterior expansion would need to be carefully considered within the existing footprint.

3. How does the property compare to others on the same street?
It ranks in the top third for living area and year built on Prairie Spring Bay, meaning it is one of the larger and newer homes on the block. Its assessed value and land area are closer to the street's median.

4. What are the typical maintenance concerns for a home of this age?
As a 2019 build, major structural components like the roof, furnace, and windows should be in good condition and likely under warranty. Attention may shift to landscaping establishment, interior finish wear, and ensuring any builder-grade materials are maintained.

5. Where can I find the exact historical sale price?
The listed sale price range is based on public data. The exact sale price is available by request from the listing service, which provides the accurate figure directly via email without using your contact information for unsolicited marketing.
