Property Summary: 61 Surfside Crescent, Island Lakes
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This two-storey home in Island Lakes offers a practical and comfortable living space with a recently renovated basement. At 1,650 sqft, it provides above-average space for Winnipeg overall, while feeling more modest and manageable within its immediate, established neighbourhood. The lot is a standout feature, larger than most in the city and on the street, offering generous outdoor space.
Its primary appeal lies in its balanced position. It’s not the largest or most expensive home on the block, which can represent a value opportunity in a desirable area. The renovated basement adds modern, functional space without the need for immediate projects. Built in 1989, the home is newer than the Winnipeg average but is a typical vintage for Island Lakes, suggesting predictable maintenance timelines for a buyer familiar with homes of that era.
This property would suit a buyer looking for a established, family-friendly neighbourhood with room to breathe outdoors. It’s ideal for those who want a move-in-ready foundation with a modernized lower level, and who appreciate a home that offers more space than the city norm without being the largest estate on the street. It’s a solid choice for practical upgraders seeking a long-term home without overextending.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home’s size compare to others nearby?
While its living area is slightly below the average for Surfside Crescent itself, it is squarely average for the broader Island Lakes community and above average for Winnipeg as a whole. This suggests a well-proportioned home in a neighbourhood of generally larger properties.
2. What does the "above average" land area mean practically?
With a lot just under 6,900 sqft, you have more outdoor space than approximately 82% of properties in Winnipeg. This allows for larger gardens, play areas, or privacy compared to many newer subdivisions.
3. The home sold in 2022 and 2023. Is that a concern?
The recent sales history indicates a fluid market for this property. It’s important to review the detailed listing history and conditions of those sales, which can be provided upon request, to understand the context.
4. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value of $510k is above the city average. It serves as a baseline for property taxes, but market conditions, the home’s specific condition, and the renovated basement will ultimately determine the sale price.
5. What is the neighbourhood character of this part of Island Lakes?
Surfside Crescent appears to be a street of mature homes on large lots. The data shows a range of home sizes and values, indicating a mix of original owners and updated properties, typical of a stable, late-1980s/1990s subdivision.
