Property Summary: 303 Laxdal Road
Section 1: Overview & Appeal
This is a distinctive, single-storey home in Varsity View, built in 1961. Its primary appeal lies in its exceptionally generous, nearly 11,000 sqft lot, which places it in the top tier of properties in Winnipeg for land size. The home itself offers 1,640 sqft of living space, which is comfortably above average for the area. Key features include a finished basement and a private swimming pool, a rare amenity that provides a ready-made recreational oasis.
The property suits buyers who prioritize outdoor space and privacy over a modern build. It’s ideal for families seeking room for play, gardens, or future expansion, or for entertainers who value the pool and sizable yard. The home’s above-average assessment value and strong rankings for lot and living space suggest a solid, established property in a desirable location. A less obvious perspective is that the very mature lot (65 years) offers established trees and landscaping you can’t replicate quickly, but it also implies a home of vintage systems and style, appealing to those comfortable with or planning thoughtful updates.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the ranking data (e.g., "top 5% in Winnipeg") actually mean?
This data compares specific metrics of this property against others. For example, its land size is larger than 95% of all residential properties in Winnipeg, a major standout feature. Conversely, its 1961 build year is newer than only 39% of Winnipeg homes, providing context on the home's age.
2. Is there parking or a garage?
The listing specifies there is no garage. Prospective buyers should consider where vehicles will be parked and the implications for storage and Winnipeg winters.
3. The home is 65 years old. What should I consider?
While the basement is finished and the home is well-maintained, a build year of 1961 means core components like plumbing, electrical, the roof, and windows may be original or have been updated at various times. A thorough inspection is essential.
4. How does the swimming pool impact value and upkeep?
The pool is a significant lifestyle amenity but requires dedicated seasonal maintenance, safety considerations, and ongoing operating costs. It can be a major asset for the right buyer or a liability for those not prepared for the responsibility.
5. Why is the lot size so significant?
At over 10,800 sqft, the lot is a rare commodity, especially in established neighbourhoods. It offers unparalleled privacy, space for additions like a garage or workshop, and long-term value that smaller lots cannot match. This is the property's most defining and competitive characteristic.
