Property Overview: 78 Huppe Bay, Island Lakes, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This one-storey home in the established Island Lakes neighbourhood presents a practical and comfortable living option. Built in 1986, it features 1,376 sqft of living space, an attached garage, and a renovated basement. The lot is a manageable 5,479 sqft.
The primary appeal lies in its balance and location. While its living space is modest for the immediate street and Island Lakes area, it stands close to the city-wide average, offering a well-sized home without excessive upkeep. A key, less obvious strength is its relative age within its micro-market: on Huppe Bay itself, it ranks in the top 5% for being newer, suggesting it may have fewer age-related issues than many direct neighbours. The renovated basement adds functional, modernized space.
This property would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a single-level layout in a mature, family-friendly neighbourhood. It’s ideal for someone who values the community amenities and green spaces of Island Lakes but prefers a home that is efficient to maintain and heat, rather than a larger, more demanding property. The assessed value positions it as an above-average offering city-wide, indicating solid inherent value for the Winnipeg market.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the size of this home compare to others?
At 1,376 sqft, the living area is below the average for both Huppe Bay and the wider Island Lakes area. However, it is very close to the average size for a home across the entire City of Winnipeg, making it a typically sized property in the broader context.
2. What does the assessed value tell me?
The assessed value of $45,400 is around average for the street but above average when compared to all Winnipeg homes. This suggests the property holds its value well on a city-wide scale, though it is priced more accessibly within its own desirable neighbourhood.
3. Is the 1986 build date a concern?
While 40 years old, the home is actually one of the newer properties on its street (ranking in the top 5%). This can be an advantage, as systems and structure may be relatively younger than those in many neighbouring houses. The renovated basement also indicates updates have been made.
4. What is the lot size like?
At just under 5,500 sqft, the lot is slightly smaller than the average for the street and the city. This means a manageable yard for gardening and maintenance, but with less expansive private outdoor space than some other homes in the area.
5. How can I find out the exact historical sale prices?
The exact sold prices are not published publicly. You can request the precise history by emailing via the provided button on the listing page. The service is manual, with a promise of a reply by the end of the same day and no unsolicited marketing use of your email address.
