Property Overview: 39 Barker Boulevard, River West Park, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home presents a balanced offering in Winnipeg's River West Park neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in its generous, above-average lot size of over 8,000 sq. ft., which is a standout feature both locally and city-wide, offering excellent potential for gardening, expansion, or outdoor living. With 1,161 sq. ft. of living space, the house itself is more compact than most in its immediate area and neighborhood, but it aligns closely with the average Winnipeg home. Built in 1973, it is among the older homes on its street, which may suggest a well-established streetscape.

The assessed value of $429k is consistently around average for its street and neighborhood, yet it positions the property above average compared to the wider city, indicating a desirable location. A recent sale occurred between March 2022 in the $450k-$500k range. This property would best suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a manageable home in a mature neighborhood, with the lot size being a key asset for future projects or simply enjoying more private outdoor space. It’s a practical choice for those who value land over a large interior footprint.
