Property Overview: 90 Smuggler's Cove, Island Lakes
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 4-level split home, built in 1989, presents a compelling mix of space, value, and established neighbourhood charm. With 1,783 sqft of living area, it offers above-average interior space for both its immediate street and the city overall, making it a practical choice for growing families or those who appreciate room to spread out. A key feature is the renovated basement, adding immediate modern livability without the need for a major project.
The home’s appeal is grounded in its value proposition. Its assessed value is notably below the Island Lakes area average, suggesting a potentially attractive entry point into this desirable neighbourhood. While the lot size is smaller than others on Smuggler’s Cove, it remains consistent with broader area averages. A thoughtful perspective is that this combination—generous interior space on a manageable lot—can appeal to buyers seeking lower maintenance without sacrificing room indoors. The home suits first-time buyers looking for a move-in-ready property with space to grow, or downsizers from larger homes who still want ample living area but prefer a yard that’s easier to care for.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size impact the property?
At 5,382 sqft, the lot is smaller than most on its street but is typical for the wider Island Lakes area. This translates to less yard maintenance while still providing private outdoor space.
2. What does the "below average" assessed value for Island Lakes indicate?
This suggests the home is assessed at a lower value than many area comparables. While not a direct price predictor, it can sometimes indicate a more favourable property tax assessment or a value opportunity within the neighbourhood.
3. Is the 1989 build date a concern?
The home is 37 years old, which is typical for the street but older than many in Island Lakes. The renovated basement is a significant update. Buyers should focus on the condition of major systems (roof, windows, HVAC) common to homes of this era.
4. How does the living space compare practically?
At 1,783 sqft, the home offers substantially more space than the average Winnipeg house (1,342 sqft). The 4-level split design provides distinct living zones, which can be ideal for separating living, sleeping, and recreational areas.
5. Where can I find the exact historical sale prices?
