Property Overview: 59 Salme Drive

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This property is defined by its exceptional space and premium positioning within the Winnipeg market. The nearly 3,641 sqft of living area places it in the top 1% of the entire city, offering a rare level of interior volume. This is complemented by an expansive 34,469 sqft lot, which also ranks within the top 1% city-wide, providing unparalleled outdoor potential and privacy for an urban setting. The home’s assessed value of $1.58M reflects this premium, positioning it in the top tier of its neighborhood and street.

The appeal lies in acquiring a property that outperforms averages at every level—street, community, and city—particularly in the most tangible metrics: living space and land size. It suits buyers for whom space is the ultimate priority, whether for multi-generational living, extensive entertaining, or simply a desire for significant room to grow. A thoughtful perspective is that while the 1966 build year is older than most on its specific street, it aligns with the average for its established, sought-after neighborhood (Victoria Crescent), suggesting a classic, well-located property rather than a modern rebuild. This is a legacy-scale home for those looking to make a long-term investment in one of the city's most spacious and stately settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the 1966 build year affect the property?
While older than the average home on Salme Drive, the build year is typical for the mature Victoria Crescent community. Buyers should anticipate the character and potential renovation needs of a well-built, mid-century home, balanced against its exceptional lot and living space.

2. What does the high assessed value ($1.58M) indicate?
It primarily reflects the property’s premium market position due to its large lot and living area. This valuation is used for tax purposes; the eventual sale price is determined by the market, but this assessment underscores the home's top-tier status in official records.

3. Is the large lot size usable, or is it irregular?
At over 34,000 sqft, the lot is significantly larger than average. Its exact topography and usability should be verified via a survey and viewing, but the size alone offers exceptional potential for gardens, pools, additions, or simply extensive private grounds.

4. Who would this home suit best?
It is ideal for buyers who prioritize space and land above new construction. It perfectly suits large families, those who work from home and need multiple dedicated areas, or anyone seeking a property with the scale to customize and grow into over many years.

5. How does it compare to neighboring homes?
The data shows it excels in size. It has the largest living area on Salme Drive, the second-highest assessment, and the fourth-largest lot. This indicates it is one of the most substantial properties in the immediate area, likely offering more interior and exterior space than most neighbors.
