Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1982-built home in River Park South presents a distinct value-oriented profile. With 1,208 sqft of living space, its size is very typical for the street and broadly average for Winnipeg. The primary appeal lies in its financial positioning: the assessed value of $289k is notably below averages for both the immediate street and the wider neighborhood. This suggests a potentially lower property tax burden and an accessible entry point into the established, family-friendly River Park South area.

The home would suit practical, value-conscious buyers—such as first-time homeowners, downsizers, or investors—who prioritize location and fiscal efficiency over lot size or a newer build. It’s a property that offers community stability without the premium price tag often found there. A thoughtful perspective is that its smaller, more manageable lot (2,584 sqft) translates to less maintenance, which can be a significant hidden benefit for those seeking a simpler lifestyle. However, the data clearly indicates trade-offs: the lot size is among the smallest in the area, and the home is older than many on its street, so buyers should be prepared for the character and potential update needs of a 40-year-old home.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the low assessed value a red flag?
Not necessarily. A below-average assessment often reflects specific characteristics like lot size, home age, and interior features. It primarily indicates a likely lower property tax bill compared to neighbors, which is an ongoing financial advantage.

2. How does the lot size impact living here?
The lot is significantly smaller than area averages, meaning a compact backyard. This limits extensive landscaping or large outdoor projects but minimizes yard work and upkeep.

3. The home sold between $250k-$300k in 2019. What does that tell us?
This recent sale price aligns with the current assessed value, suggesting stability and that the assessment is grounded in actual market history. It provides a concrete benchmark for value.

4. The home is older than most on the street. What should I consider?
Built in 1982, it is a few years older than the street average. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the condition and age of major systems (roof, windows, furnace) that may be nearing or past typical lifespans.

5. How does this property compare to others in River Park South?
It offers a cost-effective way to get into the neighborhood. You get similar interior space but on a smaller parcel and in an older home than many, resulting in the lower value. It’s a classic example of trading certain features for location and affordability.
