Property Summary: 61 Sammons Crescent
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a well-established, two-storey family home in the Varsity View neighbourhood, built in 1987. Its primary appeal lies in its generous scale and mature setting. The nearly 8,000 sqft lot is notably large, providing ample outdoor space that surpasses most homes in Winnipeg. With 1,740 sqft of living space and a finished basement, the home offers practical room for family life. A key feature is its strong relative standing in the market: it ranks in the top 15% of Winnipeg for lot size and top 17% for living area, meaning it offers more space than the vast majority of comparable properties. The home suits buyers looking for a settled property in a central neighbourhood, prioritizing lot size and interior space over a brand-new build. It would particularly appeal to a growing family seeking room to spread out, or to value-conscious buyers who understand that a larger, older lot in a good location often holds long-term value beyond the house itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home’s age affect its value?
Built in 1987, the home is nearly 40 years old. While some systems may be original and require attention, this era of construction often features solid bones and roomier floor plans compared to newer builds. Its high rankings for lot and living space suggest these factors significantly outweigh age for many buyers.
2. What do the ranking percentages actually mean?
They show how this property compares to others. For example, ranking in the "top 12%" for lot size in Winnipeg means 88% of homes have smaller lots. It’s a quick way to see this home’s competitive advantages, particularly in space.
3. Is the finished basement included in the 1,740 sqft living area?
Typically, the listed living area (sqft) refers to above-grade space. The finished basement is an additional bonus area, adding functional living space not reflected in that primary figure.
4. Why is the assessed value lower than I might expect for a home with these rankings?
The assessment is for taxation purposes and can lag behind market value. Its high percentile ranking (top 15% in Winnipeg) indicates the assessor recognizes its value relative to other properties, even if the dollar figure seems modest.
5. What is the neighbourhood like?
Varsity View is a central, mature community. The high lot-size ranking within the neighbourhood itself suggests it’s among the more spacious properties in the area, offering a sense of privacy and room that may be uncommon on the street.
