Highlights & common questions: 78 Braintree Crescent, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This two-storey home at 78 Braintree Crescent in Winnipeg's Jameswood neighbourhood presents a compelling blend of space, location, and value. Its key appeal lies in its generous 10,438 sqft lot, which ranks in the top 1% locally, offering exceptional outdoor potential rarely found in the area. The 1,324 sqft living area is above average for the street and neighbourhood, and the home benefits from a renovated basement. Built in 1957, it is typical for the well-established community. The detached garage and lack of a pool indicate a practical, low-maintenance exterior focus.

The property is ideally suited for buyers seeking a large yard for gardening, children, or future expansion in a mature neighbourhood. It also appeals to value-conscious purchasers who prioritize land size over a brand-new build, and to those who appreciate a home that stands out positively in its immediate context for both lot size and living space.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home truly compare to others in the area?
The data shows it ranks exceptionally well within Jameswood, particularly for lot size (top 1%) and living area (top 2%). This means you're getting more house and significantly more land than most comparable homes nearby.

2. The assessed value seems low. What does that indicate?
The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is not market value. Its "elite" ranking locally suggests the city assesses it as one of the more valuable properties on the street, which is positive, but buyers should rely on a current market evaluation for pricing.

3. What are the implications of a 1957 build date?
While the home is of a vintage common to the area, a key consideration is the condition and age of major systems (roof, wiring, plumbing, windows) despite the renovated basement. The generous lot size, however, is a permanent advantage that newer homes in the area rarely match.

4. Is the sold price history from 2016 relevant today?
It provides historical context but does not reflect current market conditions. The more pertinent figures are the recent comparative rankings for living area and lot size, which highlight the property's enduring standout features.

5. What is the neighbourhood feel of Jameswood?
As an established area with homes primarily from the 1950s and 60s, it offers a settled, quiet atmosphere. The property's location on a crescent typically means lighter traffic. Its high rankings within the neighbourhood suggest it is among the more substantial properties in this community.
