Property Overview & Appeal
This 1962-built, one-storey home in Varsity View sits on a generous 7,196 sqft lot, offering a rare combination of space and established character. Its key characteristics include a fully finished basement, a versatile attached + detached garage setup, and a practical 1,340 sqft layout. The appeal lies in its above-average lot size, which ranks in the top 16% citywide, providing significant outdoor potential in a mature, central neighbourhood. The property also shows strong value metrics, with its assessed value ranking higher than 65% of Winnipeg homes.
It would suit buyers looking for a solid, no-fuss bungalow with room to grow outdoors, whether for gardening, play, or future expansion. It's particularly well-matched for those who value a large yard over a brand-new build, and who appreciate the convenience of a double garage configuration. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home itself is of average size for the area, the lot size represents a long-term asset that is increasingly scarce in central neighbourhoods, offering both privacy and possibilities not found in newer subdivisions.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "attached + detached" garage mean?
This indicates there are two garage spaces: one is connected to the house (attached), and the other is a separate structure (detached). This offers excellent flexibility for vehicle storage, a workshop, or extra storage.
2. The house was built in 1962. Should I be concerned about major updates?
While the building is solidly built, a key focus for any older home is the condition of major systems. Prospective buyers should prioritize inspections of the roof, foundation, plumbing, and electrical to understand what maintenance or updates may be anticipated.
3. How does the lot size compare practically?
At over 7,000 sqft, the lot is significantly larger than many in the city. This translates to more backyard space, greater distance from neighbours, and potentially more landscaping or recreational options than a standard lot.
4. The rankings show the home size is above average for the street but the age is older than most. What does this imply?
This suggests the home is one of the larger bungalows on a street that may have a mix of original homes and newer, perhaps taller, infill developments. It offers more interior space than many neighbours but may lack the modern open-concept flow of a recent renovation.
5. Is the finished basement included in the 1,340 sqft living area?
Typically, the listed "living area" refers to above-grade, heated square footage. The finished basement adds additional usable space but is usually not counted in that official figure, meaning the home offers more functional space than the main number indicates.
