Property Overview: 19 Desjardins Drive, Island Lakes, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This two-storey home in Island Lakes presents a solid, move-in-ready opportunity. Built in 1989, it features 1,498 sqft of living space, an attached garage, and a renovated basement. The lot is a generous 6,296 sqft, offering ample outdoor space for a mature neighbourhood.
Its primary appeal lies in its balance and established setting. The home doesn't lead the area in size or assessed value, but it consistently ranks as "around average" or "above average" across key metrics when compared to its immediate street, the wider Island Lakes area, and the entire city. This suggests a reliable, well-proportioned property without extreme outliers. The renovated basement adds functional living space, a valuable update for a home of this vintage.
This property would suit practical buyers looking for a stable family home in a mature, sought-after neighbourhood like Island Lakes. It's ideal for those who value a larger lot and attached garage, and who prefer a home that has seen some updates (like the basement) but may allow for personalization over time. It represents a sensible choice rather than a standout luxury item, offering the benefits of the community without a premium price tag for top-tier size or finishes.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home's size compare to others in Island Lakes?
At 1,498 sqft, the living area is slightly below the average for Desjardins Drive but is very close to the average for the broader Island Lakes neighbourhood. It offers a comfortable footprint typical for the area.
2. What does the "above average" citywide ranking for assessed value indicate?
While the assessed value is around average for its immediate area, it ranks in the top 26% citywide. This suggests the property holds its value well compared to the entire Winnipeg market, reflecting the enduring desirability of the Island Lakes community.
3. Is the lot size a notable feature?
Yes. The 6,296 sqft lot is above average for both the street and the city, providing more private outdoor space than many comparable properties. This is a key asset for gardening, recreation, or future additions.
4. The home sold in 2021. What can that price history tell me?
The sold price range from 2021 provides a recent market benchmark. Understanding how the current asking price relates to that last sale, considering market changes and any updates made since, is a crucial starting point for assessing value.
5. The home was built in 1989. What should I consider?
A home of this age is likely to have seen some major components updated, but a thorough inspection is advised to assess the condition of original elements like the roof, windows, and major mechanical systems (furnace, water heater). The renovated basement is a positive sign of maintenance.
