Property Overview: 246 Tufnell Drive, River Park South, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home at 246 Tufnell Drive is a practical, entry-level property in the established River Park South neighborhood. Built in 1979, its key characteristic is its compact and efficient footprint. With 924 sqft of living space and a 3,596 sqft lot, it sits below the average size for both the street and the wider area. This translates to a more manageable scale for maintenance and lower utility costs. The assessed value of $352k is notably below the neighborhood average, positioning it as a financially accessible option in a popular family area.
Its primary appeal lies in its value proposition and location. It offers a foothold in a mature community with larger, more expensive homes, often at a lower entry point. This suits first-time buyers, downsizers seeking a simpler layout, or investors looking for a rental property in a stable area. A thoughtful perspective is that a smaller, well-maintained home on a modest lot can represent less future upkeep and a clearer budget, allowing owners to invest in updates or savings rather than constant maintenance on larger spaces and yards. It’s a home that prioritizes community and practicality over sheer size.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this home significantly smaller than its neighbors?
Yes. The living area is below average for Tufnell Drive, the River Park South neighborhood, and Winnipeg overall. The lot size is also smaller than most on the street. This contributes to its pricing but means less indoor and outdoor space.
2. How does its value compare to nearby homes?
Its $352k assessed value is below the street and neighborhood averages. Compared to the wider city, however, it is around the average mark. This suggests you are paying less for the specific location while getting a home that is competitively priced city-wide.
3. What is the sales history of this property?
It sold previously in September 2019 and November 2016, with both sale prices falling within the $250k–$300k range. Exact figures require a manual lookup from the provider.
4. What are similar nearby properties like?
Nearby homes on Tufnell Drive and in River Park South, such as the references at 250 Tufnell and 15 Lechman Place, are typically from the same era (late 1970s/early 1980s) but often feature more living space and, consequently, higher assessed values.
5. Who would this property suit best?
It is ideally suited for first-time buyers entering the market, investors, or empty-nesters looking to downsize. It’s less suitable for those requiring ample room for a growing family or who prioritize extensive private outdoor space.
