Property Overview: 170 Westchester Drive, Linden Woods

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home is a study in balanced, established value within Winnipeg’s desirable Linden Woods neighbourhood. Built in 1989, it presents as a classic, well-maintained property that aligns closely with the local averages for living space, assessed value, and age. Its primary appeal lies in its stability and location rather than standout size or a brand-new build.

A key characteristic is its generous 5,882 sqft lot, which is notably larger than many city-wide properties but is actually on the more modest side for Westchester Drive itself. This creates an interesting dynamic: homeowners enjoy substantial private outdoor space typical of Linden Woods, but with potentially less yard maintenance than some neighbouring properties. The home’s assessed value ranks highly city-wide (top 9%), underscoring the enduring premium of the area, while being very typical for the immediate street.

This property would best suit buyers seeking a move-in ready home in a prestigious, mature neighbourhood without the premium or unpredictability of a brand-new construction. It’s ideal for professionals or families who value established communities, larger lots, and the strong long-term value retention that Linden Woods offers. It represents a pragmatic choice for those who want space and location without extremes.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s lot size compare to others in the area?
While the lot is a comfortable size and above the Winnipeg average, it is actually one of the smaller lots on Westchester Drive itself. This could be a positive for those wanting less yard upkeep while still enjoying a spacious setting.

2. The home was built in 1989. What should I consider?
Homes of this age in Linden Woods are often well-built and established. Buyers should prioritize a thorough inspection focusing on major systems (roof, windows, HVAC) that may be nearing or have undergone scheduled replacement, which can be an opportunity to understand the home’s maintenance history.

3. The assessed value seems high compared to the sale history. Why?
The city’s assessed value for tax purposes is a formula-based estimate and doesn’t always directly correlate with market sale price. Its high city-wide ranking (top 9%) primarily reflects the desirable location, not necessarily an inflated market expectation.

4. What does it mean that the living area is “around average” for the street?
With 1,883 sqft, the home provides the spacious layout expected in this area without being oversized. It suggests the floor plan is likely functional and comparable to successfully lived-in homes nearby, offering a good standard of space.

5. How can I find out the exact past sale price?
The listed sale range is based on public data. The exact price is available by request from the listing source, which provides it manually via email as a verified service without marketing spam.
