Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home stands out as a premier property within its immediate community. Built in 2001, it is significantly newer than most homes on its street and in the wider St. George neighborhood, suggesting modern construction and potentially lower maintenance. With 1,447 sqft of living space, it offers substantially more room than local averages, ranking in the top 1% on its street. The lot size is also generous for the area, providing ample outdoor space.

The appeal lies in its clear position as a top-tier home in a well-established area. Its assessed value of $499k is notably higher than neighboring properties, reflecting its size, newer age, and likely superior condition or finishes. This isn't just an average house in the neighborhood; it's one of the largest and most valuable on the block. It would perfectly suit buyers looking for a move-in ready, spacious home in a mature area without sacrificing modern amenities, and who value a property that holds an elite standing in its immediate locale. It offers a compelling blend of space, modernity, and established community.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the sold price from 2022 relate to the current assessed value?
The home sold for between $450,000 and $500,000 in mid-2022. The current assessed value of $499,000 aligns closely with the top end of that sale range, indicating the assessment is in step with recent market activity.

2. Is the higher assessed value a benefit or a drawback?
While it indicates a premium property, it also typically translates to higher property taxes. The value is elite for the street and neighborhood, so buyers should budget for taxes commensurate with owning one of the area's most substantial homes.

3. What does the "newer build" mean for me in an older neighborhood?
A 2001 build in an area where most homes are from the mid-20th century suggests more contemporary electrical, plumbing, and insulation standards. However, it's wise to investigate if the architectural style and lot use are consistent with the surrounding homes.

4. The city-wide living area rank is "around average." Why is that?
While this home is large for its specific neighborhood, the city-wide average for comparable homes is 1,342 sqft. This puts 218 Poplarwood above that average, but not in the top tier across all of Winnipeg, highlighting that its standout size is most impactful at the local level.

5. How can I verify the exact historical sold price?
The site provides sold price ranges based on public data. To obtain the exact figure, you must request a manual lookup via email, as this platform does not have access to MLS sales records.
