Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a spacious, well-established family home in the desirable Varsity View neighbourhood. Built in 1987, the two-storey residence sits on a large, 7,915 sqft lot and offers 1,842 sqft of living space, including a finished basement. A notable and rare feature for the area is a private swimming pool, providing immediate summer recreation. The home includes an attached garage and ranks highly across Winnipeg for its above-average living space and assessed value, placing it within the top 15% and 10% of properties citywide, respectively.

Its primary appeal lies in its generous proportions, mature setting, and unique amenity. It suits buyers looking for a move-in ready home with established gardens and room to grow, particularly families or those who value outdoor entertaining. The strong rankings suggest it offers more space and value than most Winnipeg homes, making it a competitive property in its class. A thoughtful perspective is that while the 1987 build date isn't new, the home has clearly been maintained as a high-performer in its market segment, offering proven stability rather than untested potential. The pool, while a luxury, also indicates a property geared towards private, at-home leisure.
