Property Summary: 49 Sammons Crescent
Section 1: Overview & Appeal
This well-established two-storey home in Varsity View offers a compelling blend of space, location, and value. Its key characteristics include a generous 1,873 sqft of living space, a fully finished basement, and a notably large 8,132 sqft lot, providing ample room for family living and outdoor activities. Built in 1987, the home sits on a quiet crescent and comes with an attached garage.
The appeal lies in its balanced offering. The property ranks highly within Winnipeg for its above-average living space and lot size, offering more room than most city homes. It’s situated in a mature neighbourhood with a convenient location. This home would particularly suit buyers looking for a move-in ready family home with established gardens and neighbourhood character, without the premium price of a newer build. It’s ideal for those who prioritize indoor and outdoor space over having the newest construction, and who value a home that already holds a strong position in terms of assessed value relative to the wider market.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the age of the home (built 1987) impact its condition and potential costs?
While the home is nearly 40 years old, its above-average rankings for value and size suggest it has been maintained well. Buyers should still budget for updates to aging components typical of this era, such as the roof, windows, or major appliances, which could be nearing the end of their service life.
2. What does the large lot size (over 8,000 sqft) practically offer?
Beyond simple yard space, this lot provides significant potential for gardening, recreational space, and future outdoor living additions like a deck or patio. It also offers a greater sense of privacy and room for children to play compared to many newer subdivisions.
3. The home ranks highly in Winnipeg for size and value, but lower on its street for age and assessed price. What does this mean?
This indicates Sammons Crescent is a desirable street with a mix of properties. This home offers excellent value and space compared to the city overall, but on its specific street, there may be newer or more recently renovated homes. It represents a solid, value-oriented choice within a sought-after location.
4. Is the finished basement included in the listed 1,873 sqft living area?
Typically, the listed living area (sqft) refers to above-grade space. The fully finished basement is an additional bonus area, providing extra rooms for recreation, guests, or a home office, which adds significant functional space not reflected in the main square footage figure.
5. What is the neighbourhood of Varsity View like?
Varsity View is a mature, family-friendly community in Winnipeg, often valued for its established trees, quieter streets (like crescents), and proximity to schools, universities, and amenities. The mature landscape offers an immediate, settled feel that newer neighbourhoods can take decades to achieve.
