Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home’s size compare to its neighbors?
The living area is slightly below the average for Niakwa Road itself but is comfortably above the average for both the Niakwa Place neighborhood and the city of Winnipeg as a whole.
2. What does the “Elite” ranking for the lot size mean?
The lot size of over 21,600 sqft is exceptionally large. It ranks in the top 2% of lots in Niakwa Place and the top 1% citywide, making it a standout feature that offers rare potential and privacy.
3. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the sale price?
The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is often different from market value. This home recently sold for a price that ranked in the top 2% citywide, which was significantly above its assessed value, reflecting strong market demand for its specific attributes.
4. What are the implications of the home being newer than others on the street?
Built in 1986, it is the newest home among the 19 comparable properties on Niakwa Road. This can be an advantage, often meaning updates to major systems (like electrical or plumbing) may have been made more recently, and the home may align better with modern layouts and expectations.
