Property Overview: 259 Wakopa Street, Meadowood, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 1976-built home on a 5,879 sqft lot presents a specific value proposition in the Meadowood neighbourhood. With 916 sqft of living space, it is notably more compact than many homes on its own street, but offers a lot size that is above average for the Meadowood area. This creates a distinct profile: a modest-sized house on a relatively generous parcel of land.
The primary appeal lies in its efficient scale and the potential of its lot. It suits first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a lower-entry point into the Winnipeg market without sacrificing outdoor space. The assessed value of $340k is modest for the city overall, suggesting a manageable property tax burden. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home itself is below average in size for its immediate street, this can mean less maintenance and lower utility costs, while the larger-than-area-average lot provides room for gardening, expansion, or simply more privacy than neighbouring properties might offer. It’s a property for those who prioritize land over square footage.
