Property Overview: 156 McQuaker Drive
Key Characteristics & Buyer Appeal
This is a spacious, well-established family home in Ridgedale, built in 1967. Its primary appeal lies in its generous proportions and mature lot. With nearly 2,500 sqft of living space, it offers significantly more room than most Winnipeg homes, ranking in the top 3% city-wide for size. The property sits on a large, approximately 9,671 sqft lot, providing ample outdoor space and privacy. The home is a four-level split with a finished basement, offering distinct living zones that can accommodate multi-generational living, teenagers seeking separation, or dedicated hobby and office spaces. A combined attached and detached garage adds considerable utility for vehicles, workshops, or storage.
Its appeal is for buyers prioritizing space and land over a modern, turn-key condition. It suits a practical buyer—perhaps a growing family, an avid gardener, or a home-based professional—who sees value in the solid foundation and potential of a character home. The rankings suggest a property with a unique mix: it's larger and sits on a bigger lot than most of the city, yet it's older than many in its immediate neighborhood. This presents an opportunity for someone willing to invest in updates over time to tailor it to their taste, ultimately creating a highly personalized and spacious retreat.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "four-level split" layout typically mean?
This design creates multiple, slightly offset living areas over four short flights of stairs. It often provides good separation between common living spaces, private bedrooms, and recreational basement areas, which can be great for noise buffering and defined zones.
2. The house is older (1967). What should I budget for initially?
While systems may have been updated, a pre-purchase inspection is crucial. Given the age, you should be prepared for potential updates to major components like the roof, windows, or HVAC over the coming years, even if they are currently functional.
3. How does the large lot size benefit me?
Beyond gardening and play space, a lot of this size (over 1/5 of an acre) offers long-term flexibility. It provides room for additions like a deck, shed, or play structure, and contributes to a sense of privacy not always found in newer subdivisions.
4. What are the pros and cons of having both an attached and detached garage?
The attached garage offers convenient, weather-protected access. The detached garage is ideal for noisy projects, woodworking, or as a dedicated workshop without disturbing the main house, or for secure storage of lawn equipment and bicycles.
5. The assessment value is noted, but how does that relate to the selling price?
The municipal assessment is for tax purposes and is not a market appraisal. It can be a rough indicator, but the final sale price is determined by current market conditions, the home's specific state, and buyer demand for a unique, large property like this.
