Highlights & common questions: 79 Ebb Tide Drive, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This two-storey home at 79 Ebb Tide Drive in Island Lakes presents a compelling blend of space, modern updates, and a well-established neighbourhood. Built in 2005, its key appeal lies in its above-average living space (1,975 sq ft) and a recently renovated basement, offering a move-in-ready canvas. The attached garage and functional lot size complete the practical picture. Its assessed value positions it well within its immediate area, suggesting a solid investment in a desirable part of Winnipeg.

The home is ideally suited for growing families or professionals seeking ample indoor space without the upkeep of an oversized yard. It will particularly resonate with buyers who prioritize a modernized interior (as evidenced by the basement renovation) and value a home that stands out in its immediate vicinity for both size and relative newness, while still being part of a mature, amenity-rich community like Island Lakes.

A thoughtful perspective: while the lot is average for the street, it is notably smaller than many in the wider Island Lakes area. This could be a perk for those seeking lower maintenance, but a consideration for buyers dreaming of extensive landscaping. The home’s rankings indicate you’re purchasing a property that is statistically superior in square footage and value within its own micro-market of Ebb Tide Drive, which speaks to the calibre of the immediate neighbourhood.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the property compare in size to others nearby?
The living area is significantly above average, ranking in the top 10% on its own street and top 13% in Island Lakes. You are getting more indoor space than most comparable homes in the area.

2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated, but specifics on finish quality, layout, and permits should be verified by your real estate agent during a viewing or through the seller's disclosure.

3. Is the lot size a concern?
The land area is about average for Ebb Tide Drive but smaller than the typical lot in the broader Island Lakes neighbourhood. This means less yard maintenance but may limit expansion or large outdoor projects.

4. How current are the home’s major systems?
Built in 2005, the home is 21 years old. The condition of major components like the roof, HVAC, and windows should be a key focus of a professional home inspection.

5. What is the significance of the assessed value?
The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is one indicator of market value. Its ranking in the top 12% on the street suggests the property is consistently valued higher than its direct neighbours, which is a positive signal.
