Highlights & common questions: 489 Stalker Bay, Winnipeg

Section 1: Property Overview

This home at 489 Stalker Bay in Winnipeg's Rossmere-A neighborhood presents a solid, well-situated property with a clear value proposition. Its key appeal lies in offering above-average space on a good-sized lot within a stable, established community, all at an assessed value that is modest relative to broader city averages.

Key Characteristics & Appeal:
Built in 1960, the home is actually one of the newer properties on its specific street, which can be a subtle advantage regarding the potential age of major components. With 1,258 sqft of living area, it provides more space than most homes in the immediate neighborhood and on the street itself. The 6,047 sqft lot is also generous, offering ample outdoor space compared to many city and neighborhood properties.

The appeal here is one of practical value. The home's assessed value of $334k sits below the street average and significantly below the Winnipeg city average for comparable homes, suggesting a potentially more accessible entry point into a neighborhood where you get more house and land for your money. It suits buyers looking for a established-character home without a premium price tag, such as growing families seeking space, value-conscious purchasers wanting a solid foundation in a mature area, or those who prioritize a larger yard over a recently built structure.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
While the assessed value ($334k) is a key municipal metric for calculating taxes, it is not a direct market appraisal. The home last sold between $300k-$350k in 2020. The current market price will be influenced by factors like condition, updates, and market trends, but the assessment suggests it is positioned below area averages.

2. How does this home compare to others nearby?
The data shows this property is competitive within its immediate context. It has more living space than most neighbors on Stalker Bay and in Rossmere-A, and a larger-than-average lot for the city. While its assessed value is slightly below the street average, this may indicate an opportunity if the home is in good condition.

3. What does the "Year Built" ranking mean?
Ranking #1 out of 34 on the street for "Year Built" (1960) simply means it is one of the newest homes on Stalker Bay, where the average build year is also 1960. This doesn't imply it's a new build, but rather that it's not an older outlier on a street of similar-era homes.

4. What are the potential considerations for a home built in 1960?
Homes from this era are typically solidly built but may require updates to major systems like plumbing, electrical, or insulation to meet modern efficiency standards. A thorough inspection is recommended to understand the condition of the roof, foundation, and mechanical systems.

5. Can I find out the exact historical sale prices?
The exact sale price from August 2020 is not publicly displayed in this summary. The site provides a mechanism to request the exact figures via email, with a manual process to retrieve that specific data from detailed records.
