Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This is a classic, one-storey home in Roblin Park, built in 1954. Its most defining feature is the exceptionally large, half-acre lot (20,786 sqft), which places it in the top 1% of properties in Winnipeg for land size. The house itself is modest at 1,084 sqft, with an unfinished basement and a detached garage. While the home's age and interior size are average for its immediate area, the sheer scale of the private outdoor space is rare and dominates the property's appeal. It ranks highly within its community and city for lot size, but lower for newer features and assessed value.

The appeal lies in tremendous potential and privacy. The vast, blank-canvas yard is ideal for gardening, recreation, or future expansion. It suits a buyer looking for an affordable entry into a established neighborhood with room to grow, whether that's by finishing the basement, adding to the home, or simply enjoying one of the largest private lots in the city. This property is for a visionary, a gardener, or a family seeking space over a turn-key modern finish. It’s a long-term play on land value and customization rather than immediate move-in convenience.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the ranking data actually mean?
The rankings compare this property against others on its street, in Roblin Park, and across all of Winnipeg. For example, being in the "top 1%" for lot size city-wide confirms the land is exceptionally large. Conversely, rankings in the 70th percentile for age indicate it's an older home compared to most.

2. Is the unfinished basement a drawback or an opportunity?
It's both. It means immediate living space is limited to the main floor's 1,084 sqft, which some may find compact. However, it provides a clean slate for future development—such as adding bedrooms, a rec room, or a suite—subject to permits and investment.

3. Why is the assessed value ranking lower than the lot size ranking?
Municipal assessments consider the building's age, size, and condition alongside the land value. The modest, older home on the site likely tempers the total assessed value, despite the premium lot. This can sometimes indicate a perceived gap between the property's current state and its potential value.

4. Who would this property not suit?
It may not suit those seeking a modern, low-maintenance, or immediately spacious home without renovation projects. The scale of the yard requires upkeep, and the home itself likely needs updates, appealing more to a hands-on owner than someone wanting a fully finished property.

5. How significant is a detached garage versus an attached one?
A detached garage offers flexibility for use as a workshop or studio separate from the house but means dealing with the elements when moving between your vehicle and home. For this era and style of home, it is a typical feature, but it's a practical consideration for our climate.
