Highlights & common questions: 86 Leighton Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview

86 Leighton Avenue is a one-and-a-half storey home in Winnipeg's Kildonan Drive area, built in 1948. It features 1,236 square feet of living space, a renovated basement, and a detached garage on a 5,026 sqft lot.

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home presents a solid, move-in ready opportunity in a well-established neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its above-average condition and value within its immediate area. The renovated basement adds functional living space, a key upgrade for a home of this era. The detached garage offers practical storage or workshop potential.

Statistically, the property stands out on its own street: its living area is in the top 25% and its assessed value is in the top 6% compared to neighbours, suggesting it is a larger and more updated home on Leighton Avenue. While its lot size is more modest compared to wider areas of Kildonan Drive, the yard is still generous for city living.

It would best suit practical buyers looking for a character home without major immediate projects—first-time homeowners, small families, or downsizers seeking single-level living potential (with primary bedroom on the main floor). It’s for those who value neighbourhood stability over a sprawling lot, and who appreciate a home that already holds strong value relative to its peers.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value relate to the likely selling price?
The assessed value of $38,300 is for municipal tax purposes. The last recorded sale in July 2023 was between $41,500 and $44,500, which is a more current market indicator. Always consult a realtor for a current market valuation.

2. What does the "above average" ranking for this street mean?
The data shows that compared to the 175 comparable homes on Leighton Avenue, this home's size and assessed value rank highly. This often indicates the home has been updated or is better maintained than many others on the same block.

3. Is the basement renovation a legal suite?
The listing states the basement is renovated but does not specify it as a legal rental suite. Buyers should verify with the city and the seller if they are interested in rental income potential, as permits and compliance are crucial.

4. What are the implications of the lot size being "below average" for Kildonan Drive?
The Kildonan Drive area includes many homes with larger lots. At just over 5,000 sqft, this lot is smaller than the area average but is still a good size. It may mean less yard maintenance but also slightly less privacy or expansion space than some neighbouring properties.

5. How can I get the exact historical sale price?
The exact sale price is not publicly posted due to privacy regulations. The listing service provides a range. You can request the exact figure by emailing them through the provided button; they manually verify and provide the data without using your email for marketing.
