Property Overview: 68 Sammons Crescent

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated Varsity View bungalow presents a practical and spacious family home on a large, 6,294 sqft lot. Built in 2004, it offers modern construction without the premium of a brand-new build, and its single-story layout provides easy living. The home features a finished basement and an attached garage, with a generous living area of 1,621 sqft that ranks above average for Winnipeg.

Its primary appeal lies in a combination of space, location, and established value. The property consistently ranks in the top tiers for its assessed value and recent sale price within the broader Winnipeg market, suggesting a history of solid value retention. It’s particularly suited for buyers seeking a move-in ready bungalow—ideal for empty-nesters looking to downsize without sacrificing room, or for young families who value the safety and convenience of a single level and a large yard in a mature neighbourhood. A less obvious angle is its appeal to value-conscious buyers who prioritize statistical performance; the home's strong rankings for its price point in the city indicate a property that has historically outpaced most of the market, which can be a reassuring data point.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the property’s value compare to its neighbours?
The home’s assessed value and its last sale price in 2021 rank in the top 30% on its street and the top 15% in the Varsity View community, indicating it is valued higher than many surrounding properties.

2. Is the lot size a significant feature?
Yes. At over 6,200 sqft, the lot is substantially larger than many in Winnipeg (ranking in the top 26% city-wide), offering ample outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or future expansion, which is a key asset in this established neighbourhood.

3. What does the "finished basement" include?
The listing confirms a finished basement but does not specify the details. A viewing or inquiry with the listing agent is necessary to determine the layout, rooms, and finish quality.

4. The home was built in 2004. Are there any major components nearing replacement?
At 22 years old, major systems like the roof, HVAC, and some appliances may be approaching the end of their typical service life. A thorough home inspection is recommended to assess their condition and plan for potential future updates.

5. How does the property’s size rank for a bungalow?
With 1,621 sqft of living space, this bungalow is more spacious than roughly 78% of all Winnipeg homes, offering ample room for a single-story floor plan.
