Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,050 sqft bungalow, built in 1974, presents a solid, middle-of-the-road offering in Winnipeg's Valley Gardens neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in its stability and alignment with local norms. The home sits on a slightly larger-than-average lot for the area (5,699 sqft), offering good outdoor space potential. With an assessed value of $326,000, it sits comfortably within the average range for its immediate street and neighborhood, suggesting it is priced consistently with its surroundings without premium or discount signals.

The property would suit pragmatic, value-conscious buyers—particularly first-time homeowners or downsizers—who prioritize neighborhood establishment over a fixer-upper project or a luxury purchase. A thoughtful perspective is that its "average" metrics across the board can be a strength: it indicates lower risk of overpaying relative to the area and avoids the premium often attached to standout "top tier" homes. Its 1974 build date is newer than many on its street, potentially meaning fewer immediate updates compared to older stock. The appeal is one of predictability and a balanced entry into a mature community.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to recent sales in the area?
No direct sales history is published for this listing. However, you can request the exact sold price history by emailing the site; they will provide a manual lookup.

2. Is the living space smaller than typical Winnipeg homes?
At 1,050 sqft, it is moderately smaller than the Winnipeg city average for comparable homes (1,342 sqft), but it is very close to the averages for both its street (1,042 sqft) and the Valley Gardens neighborhood (1,117 sqft).

3. What does the assessed value tell me about the property tax?
The $326,000 assessed value is used to calculate municipal property taxes. It is above the street average but aligns with the neighborhood average, so taxes should be typical for Valley Gardens.

4. The home was built in 1974. What should I consider regarding its age?
While newer than many homes on its block, a 52-year-old home will likely have had several systems updated over time. An inspection is crucial to determine the condition of the roof, wiring, plumbing, and windows.

5. Are the lot size and rankings a significant advantage?
The lot is above average for the street and neighborhood. This doesn’t dramatically alter its value ranking but does offer more private outdoor space than many nearby properties, which is a tangible benefit.
