Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the significance of the property’s high rankings?
The rankings indicate this home is larger and has a higher assessed value than a majority of comparable properties in its immediate area and across Winnipeg. This generally points to a strong, above-average asset in terms of both physical size and municipal valuation.

2. Is a 1987-built home a concern?
While not a new build, a home from this era often features well-established landscaping and mature neighbourhood character. Prospective buyers should prioritize a thorough inspection to understand the condition of major systems (roof, HVAC, etc.), which are likely at or entering their renewal phases, balancing the charm of an established property with practical planning.

3. How does the pool impact the property?
The private pool is a major recreational amenity but also entails seasonal maintenance, safety considerations, and ongoing costs. It’s a significant lifestyle feature that will be a major pro for some buyers and a consideration for others.

4. What does the large lot size offer?
At over 8,700 sqft, the lot provides exceptional outdoor space for gardening, play, and privacy—a growing rarity. It also offers potential for future additions or landscaping projects, subject to local bylaws.

5. Who is the typical buyer for this home?
The data suggests this home is most suited for a family or someone needing significant space, as it ranks highly for living area. The combination of finished basement, pool, and large lot indicates a property designed for indoor and outdoor living and entertaining.
