Property Overview: 255 Tufnell Drive, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This 1978-built home in River Park South presents a practical entry point into a well-established Winnipeg neighborhood. With 915 square feet of living space on a 3,749 sqft lot, its key characteristic is its efficiency. The home is notably more compact in both size and lot dimensions compared to most on its street and in the broader area, which is reflected in its below-average living area rankings.

Its appeal lies in its value positioning. The assessed value of $377k is around the city-wide average but sits below the neighborhood average, suggesting a potentially more accessible price point for the River Park South area. This creates an opportunity for buyers seeking location over square footage. The home would suit first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a lower-maintenance property in a mature community without a premium for larger, modern footprints. It’s a pragmatic choice for those who prioritize a stable neighborhood character and cost-effectiveness, understanding that the property offers a solid foundation rather than expansive space.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s size compare to others nearby?
The living area is smaller than most comparable homes on Tufnell Drive and in River Park South. It ranks in the top 92% on its street, meaning about 92% of similar homes on the street are larger. This indicates a cozy, efficient layout.

2. Is the assessed value high for the area?
No, the assessed value is actually below the neighborhood average for River Park South. It is, however, close to the city-wide average. This suggests the property is valued in line with Winnipeg overall but may represent a relative value within its specific community.

3. When was it last sold and for how much?
Public records indicate a sale between November 2017 for a price in the range of CA$300,000–$350,000. For fully verified and exact historical sale figures, a manual lookup through the site is required.

4. What are the less obvious considerations with a home of this vintage and size?
Built in 1978, the home is older than most in River Park South but older than the city-wide average. This era may involve specific maintenance considerations for original components. The smaller lot size translates to less outdoor upkeep, which can be a benefit, but also less private outdoor space than neighbors might have.

5. Are there similar properties nearby for comparison?
Yes. The listing references several nearby homes on Tufnell Drive and surrounding streets like Paddington Road. For instance, 250 Tufnell Drive (1979, 960 sqft, $391k assessment) and 166 Paddington Road (1978, 998 sqft, $373k assessment) offer close comparisons for year, size, and value.
