Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This 1987-built home on Eaglemount Crescent in Linden Woods offers 1,672 square feet of living space on a 5,738-square-foot lot, with an assessed value of $541,000. While the living area sits moderately below the average for both its street and neighbourhood, it ranks well above the citywide median—placing it in Winnipeg’s top 22% for size. The lot is on the smaller side for the area, but remains in the top 38% citywide. The assessed value is notably strong, ranking in the top 14% across Winnipeg and above most homes on the same street.

Where the appeal lies: This property balances a desirable age (late 80s construction, often with better bones and lot sizes than newer infills) with a value proposition that’s not overreaching for the neighbourhood. It’s not the biggest house on the block, but it’s comfortably above average for the city—meaning you’re not paying a premium for square footage you don’t need. The lot, while modest by Linden Woods standards, is still generous enough for a functional yard.

Who it suits: Buyers who want an established, well-ranked Winnipeg neighbourhood without stretching into the upper-tier price point for the area. It fits households that prioritise location and solid assessed value over maximum interior space—empty nesters, small families, or professionals who value proximity to amenities and don’t need a sprawling footprint. It’s also a strong candidate for someone who sees value in a home that’s not the most expensive on the street but holds its own in citywide rankings.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home compare to others on Eaglemount Crescent?
It ranks in the bottom 38% for living area on the street and bottom 6% for lot size, but sits in the top 23% for year built (newer than most neighbours) and top 17% for assessed value. So it’s one of the more valuable homes on the street despite being smaller—suggesting either better condition, finishes, or lot orientation.

2. Is a 1987 build considered old or new for Linden Woods?
It’s slightly older than the neighbourhood average, which is around 1990–1995 for many sections. However, 1987 homes in Winnipeg often feature solid construction, mature landscaping, and larger lots than what’s common in newer developments. It’s not a fixer-upper era, but it predates the 2000s building boom.

3. What does the assessed value of $541,000 tell me?
It places the home in Winnipeg’s top 14% for value, meaning it’s priced well above typical city stock. However, it’s within the top 9% for Linden Woods, so it’s not at the very peak of the neighbourhood. This suggests you’re getting a property that’s competitive on value without hitting the premium tier of Linden Woods listings.

4. Why is the living area smaller than the street and area averages?
Eaglemount Crescent includes a mix of house sizes, and Linden Woods has some larger custom homes. At 1,672 sqft, this property sits below the street average of 1,761 sqft and the area average of 2,023 sqft. That said, it’s still well above Winnipeg’s median of 1,342 sqft—so it’s a mid-sized home in a neighbourhood that leans larger.

5. What should I look into before viewing?
Check the condition of systems and finishes, especially given the 1987 build—roof age, windows, furnace, and foundation are worth noting. Also compare the lot layout: 5,738 sqft can feel different depending on shape and frontage. Finally, request the neighbourhood analysis map to see how this property sits relative to immediate neighbours in terms of privacy, sun exposure, and setback.
