Property Overview: 51 Waterhouse Bay, River West Park, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 51 Waterhouse Bay presents a compelling mix of space, established value, and location. Its primary appeal lies in its generous 2,141 sqft of living area, which ranks well above average for the neighborhood and city, offering more interior room than most comparable Winnipeg homes. With an assessed value of $579k, the property sits in a tier above its immediate peers on Waterhouse Bay and in River West Park, suggesting a perception of higher quality, updates, or desirability within its locale.

Built in 1977, the house is typical for its street but is actually newer than many in the broader River West Park area. A thoughtful perspective is that while the lot size is slightly smaller than others on the street, it remains above the citywide average, potentially offering a balance of manageable outdoor maintenance without sacrificing yard space.

This property would suit buyers looking for an established home in a mature neighborhood who prioritize interior square footage. It’s ideal for someone seeking a residence that already stands above the norm in terms of size and assessed value within its community, likely appealing to growing families or those wanting room to entertain without venturing into newer, more peripheral subdivisions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the lot size compare?
The land area is 6,754 sqft, which is slightly below the average for Waterhouse Bay but remains larger than the typical Winnipeg lot. It suggests a manageable yard within a street of mostly larger properties.

What does the assessed value ranking indicate?
Ranking in the top 14% on its street and in the neighborhood, the $579k assessment is consistently higher than local averages. This often reflects factors like renovations, premium finishes, or a favorable location on the bay, but it's important to verify the home's specific condition.

When was it last sold and for how much?
Records show it sold in July 2021 for between $550,000 and $600,000. This placed it in the top 15% of sale prices for the River West Park area at that time.

How can I get the exact historical sale price?
The provided data shows a price range. For fully verified and exact sale figures, you must request a manual lookup from the site via email, as they do not display MLS records directly.

Built in 1977, it is very typical for its immediate street but is actually newer than the average home in the wider River West Park neighborhood, which may be a positive for some buyers.
