Property Overview: 79 Byars Bay, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home at 79 Byars Bay in Munroe East is a practical, no-frills property built in 1969. Its key appeal lies in offering solid fundamentals: a manageable 988 sqft living space on a notably generous 5,496 sqft lot for the neighbourhood, ranking well above the area average for land size. The assessed value is modest, positioning it as an accessible entry point.
The property suits first-time buyers or practical investors looking for a lower-cost footprint in a stable area, with the lot size offering future potential for expansion or outdoor space. Its appeal is more utilitarian than luxurious; it’s a home that prioritizes land over lavish interior space. A thoughtful perspective is that while the house itself is smaller and older than many on its own street, it holds its own more favorably when compared to the broader Munroe East area, suggesting it represents better value within its immediate community context.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home’s value compare to its neighbours?
The home’s assessed value is below the average for Byars Bay street itself, but is around the average for the wider Munroe East area. This suggests it may offer a more budget-friendly option on a street where other homes are valued higher.
2. Is the lot size a significant feature?
Yes. The lot of 5,496 sqft ranks in the top 24% for size in Munroe East, meaning it’s substantially larger than many area properties. This is a key asset, providing more yard space than typical for the neighbourhood.
3. What should I consider about the home’s age and size?
Built in 1969, the home is older than many in the city but is actually newer than most on its street and in Munroe East. The living area is below the city-wide average, indicating a compact layout. Buyers should weigh the generous lot against the modestly sized, 57-year-old house.
4. What does the recent sold price range indicate?
The property sold between $300k-$350k in 2024. This price ranked in the top 20% for the Munroe East area, meaning it sold for more than many nearby homes, likely reflecting the value placed on its larger lot.
5. Who would this property not suit?
It may not suit buyers seeking a modern, move-in-ready home with ample interior space or those who prioritize a high-end street presence. The value here is in the land and location more than in the current structure’s size or premium finishings.
