Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a well-maintained, single-story home built in 1976, situated on a generous 3,598 sqft lot in the established Varsity View neighbourhood. With 1,040 sqft of living space and a finished basement, it offers practical, single-level living. The home’s primary appeal lies in its solid foundation and location within a mature community. Its competitive rankings, particularly for lot size and building age relative to the immediate street, suggest it is a sturdy and spacious offering in its local context.

The property would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an entry point into a quiet, long-established area without the maintenance of a larger property. It’s a pragmatic choice for those who value interior space and a sizable yard over modern finishes or a garage. A thoughtful perspective for a buyer is to see the 50-year-old structure not just as its age, but as a home that has proven its durability through Winnipeg’s climate, potentially with well-settled foundations and mature, landscaping that offers immediate privacy and character a newer subdivision cannot.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the significance of the property’s ranking data?
The rankings compare this home against others on its street, in Varsity View, and across all of Winnipeg for specific metrics. For example, ranking in the top 43% for building age on its street means it is newer than over half of its immediate neighbours, suggesting a relatively modern presence on the block.

2. Is the lack of a garage a major drawback?
This depends on buyer priorities. While it eliminates enclosed vehicle storage and workshop space, the large lot (over 3,500 sqft) may offer ample room for adding a garage or shed in the future, or simply provides more private outdoor space, which can be a premium in older neighbourhoods.

3. The assessment value seems lower than expected for the area. What does this indicate?
The municipal assessment is for taxation purposes and reflects factors like age, size, and recent area sales. A lower assessment relative to many neighbours can suggest the home is more modest in scope or finishes, but it also typically translates to lower property taxes, which is an ongoing financial benefit.

4. What are the pros and cons of a finished basement in a 50-year-old home?
The finished basement adds valuable living space. However, a thoughtful inspection is wise to check for signs of moisture management, the quality of the finishing work, and to understand the home’s foundational health, which is prudent for any property of this vintage.

5. Who might find the "one storey" design particularly appealing?
Beyond the obvious appeal for those seeking to avoid stairs, the single-story layout offers efficient, compact living where all daily essentials are on one level. This can mean lower heating costs and easier maintenance, making it a cost-effective and manageable long-term home.
