Property Overview: 86 Barker Boulevard, River West Park, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home presents a compelling opportunity in Winnipeg's River West Park neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in offering above-average space and value across multiple metrics. With 2,006 sqft of living area, it sits comfortably in the top 15% of homes on its own street and the top 11% city-wide, providing more room than most comparable Winnipeg properties. The lot size of over 8,100 sqft is also notably larger than the city average, allowing for generous outdoor space.

The assessed value of $568k ranks highly against local averages, suggesting a perception of solid value and desirability. Recent sale prices indicate strong and consistent market performance. While built in 1974, its age is typical for the immediate area. This combination positions the property as a spacious, established home in a stable neighborhood. It would particularly suit buyers looking for a larger-than-average family home without venturing into the premium luxury market, or those seeking a property with strong fundamentals that has consistently tracked above neighborhood and city norms for size and value.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s size truly compare to others?
It ranks exceptionally well for living space. With 2,006 sqft, it is larger than approximately 89% of comparable homes across Winnipeg and 86% of those in the River West Park neighborhood.

2. What does the assessed value tell me?
The $568k assessment is significantly higher than the average for the street ($438.5k), area ($485.6k), and city ($390.1k). This typically reflects factors like its above-average square footage and lot size, and can indicate a stronger tax base and perceived long-term value.

3. Have recent sale prices been consistent?
Yes. The last three recorded sales (2021, 2023, 2023) all fell within the $550k-$600k range, and each placed in the top 10-18% of area sales for their time, showing steady, high-performing market value.

4. Is the 1974 build date a concern?
It is average for the street and neighborhood, meaning most nearby homes are of a similar vintage. Buyers should plan for maintenance and updates typical of a 50-year-old home, but it is not an outlier in its community.

5. Where can I get verified, exact sale price history?
The provided data is compiled from public sources. For fully verified figures and a complete transaction history, you must request a manual lookup from the site via email, as MLS sold records are not displayed here due to industry regulations.
