Property Overview: 29 Sammons Crescent, Varsity View, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a well-established, single-storey home on a large, 7,280 sqft lot in the sought-after Varsity View neighbourhood. Built in 1987, the 1,712 sqft residence features a finished basement and an attached garage. Its appeal lies in a combination of space, location, and value. The property ranks highly across Winnipeg for its above-average living area and lot size, placing it in the top 15-20% of the city for these metrics. It offers the quiet, family-friendly feel of a mature community with the convenience of being close to the University of Manitoba, major routes, and amenities.
The home would suit a range of buyers, particularly those looking for a move-in ready bungalow with a generous yard—ideal for families, downsizers seeking single-level living, or investors attracted by the stable rental market near the university. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home is nearly 40 years old, its rankings show it competes favorably with newer builds in terms of space and assessed value, suggesting it has been well-maintained and sits on a desirable parcel of land that newer subdivisions often can't match.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "ranking" data actually mean?
The rankings compare this property against others on its street, in Varsity View, and across all of Winnipeg for specific traits like size, age, and assessed value. For example, ranking in the "top 15%" for lot size in Winnipeg means 85% of city properties have a smaller lot, highlighting a key strength.
2. Is the basement included in the 1,712 sqft living area?
Typically, living area (sqft) refers to above-grade, finished space. The 1,712 sqft is likely the main and upper floors only, with the finished basement providing additional living space not reflected in that primary figure.
3. How does a 1987 build date affect the home?
A home of this age will have components, like the roof, windows, and major systems, that may be nearing or due for updates. However, its rankings show it is newer than 72% of Winnipeg homes, and it may benefit from more modern layouts and materials than much older character homes.
4. Who might the "top 12% in assessed value" ranking appeal to?
This high ranking for assessed value relative to the city suggests the property is viewed as a substantial asset, which can be appealing to buyers looking for long-term equity growth or those who see value in a property that is officially assessed significantly higher than many others in the market.
5. What is the neighbourhood vibe in Varsity View?
Varsity View is a mature, established community known for its proximity to the University of Manitoba. It tends to offer a mix of academic staff, families, and long-term residents, resulting in a quiet, educated, and community-oriented atmosphere with well-kept properties.
