Key Characteristics & Buyer Appeal

This 1974-built home in River West Park presents a balanced profile, defined by its generous lot and citywide value. At 1,160 sqft, the living space is modest for the immediate street and neighborhood, but is close to the Winnipeg average. The standout feature is the 8,156 sqft lot, which is significantly larger than most city lots, offering ample outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or future expansion. With an assessed value of $445k, it sits around the average for its street but is above average citywide, suggesting the property holds its value well in the broader market.

Its appeal lies in this land-to-house ratio, offering a suburban feel within the city. It suits practical buyers who prioritize yard space over a large interior footprint, such as young families seeking room for children to play, DIY enthusiasts with projects in mind, or those looking for a manageable home with the potential to add value through renovations or an addition. It represents a solid, grounded entry into a stable neighborhood without the premium price of a larger modern home.
