Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This 1969-built, one-storey home in Varsity View offers a blend of space, established charm, and recreational appeal. Its most defining feature is the generous 8,152 sqft lot, which provides ample outdoor space and ranks within the top third of properties in Winnipeg for size. The home itself features 1,232 sqft of living space, a finished basement, and a notable private swimming pool. There is no garage.
The appeal lies in its established neighborhood setting and the rare combination of a large, private yard with a pool—a significant advantage for outdoor living and entertainment. Its rankings indicate it outperforms most city homes on lot size, but is more average in terms of age and interior space for its immediate area.
This property would suit buyers prioritizing outdoor amenities and space over a modern or expansive interior. It’s ideal for families or entertainers who value a large, private backyard oasis, or for those looking to add value through future landscaping or expansion. It may also appeal to buyers comfortable with the maintenance of a mature home and pool, and who do not require a garage.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lack of a garage impact daily life and property value?
While a garage is absent, the very large lot offers potential for adding a detached garage or carport, subject to local bylaws. Buyers should factor in the convenience trade-off and potential future investment.
2. What should I consider regarding a pool of this age?
A pool from a home built in 1969 requires diligent inspection. Focus on the condition of the liner/concrete, mechanical systems (pump, heater, filter), and associated operating costs. Ensure proper permits and safety fencing are in place.
3. The home is older; what are the likely maintenance priorities?
Given its age, key areas to investigate are the roof, original windows, plumbing, electrical systems, and the foundation. The recent assessment value suggests the home is in fair condition relative to the market.
4. The lot is large, but how is it shaped and positioned?
The specific dimensions and orientation are not listed. A viewing is essential to understand how the house sits on the lot, where the pool is located, sun exposure, and how the space can be utilized for gardens, play, or expansion.
5. The rankings show strong lot size but average interior space. What does this mean?
This highlights the property’s core dynamic: you are primarily investing in land and location. The interior is functional but not oversized for the neighborhood. The value proposition is the potential of the land and the lifestyle offered by the pool and yard.
