Highlights & common questions: 78 Montclair Bay, Winnipeg

Property Summary: 78 Montclair Bay, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 78 Montclair Bay presents a solid, well-proportioned offering in the Waverley Heights neighborhood. With 1,323 sqft of living space, it sits comfortably above the neighborhood average, providing more interior room than many nearby homes. The lot size of 6,275 sqft is generous, particularly when compared to the citywide average, offering good outdoor potential.

The appeal lies in its balanced positioning. It’s not an outlier in any extreme, but rather a home that offers a bit more space than its immediate peers while carrying a below-average assessed value for its specific street. This creates a value-oriented proposition. The 1975 build date is typical for the street but is actually on the older side for the broader Waverley Heights area, suggesting a streetscape of mature, established homes.

This property would suit pragmatic buyers looking for space and value in a mature neighborhood. It’s ideal for someone who prioritizes a larger lot and more living area over a newer build, and who sees potential in a home that is priced more accessibly than others on the same block. It’s a sensible choice for those wanting room to grow without overextending.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this house a good value compared to its neighbors?
The data suggests it might be. Its assessed value is below the average for Montclair Bay street, while its living area is slightly above that same street average. This discrepancy can sometimes indicate a relative value opportunity.

2. How does the 1975 build date affect things?
While perfectly average for the street, it means this home is older than most in the wider Waverley Heights area. Buyers should be prepared for the maintenance and update cycles typical of a home from this era, but can also expect a mature streetscape with established landscaping.

3. What does the lot size mean for me?
At over 6,000 sqft, the lot is larger than most in Winnipeg. This is a key feature, offering more privacy, yard space, and potential for gardening, play areas, or additions than many city properties.

4. Are the rankings a sign of quality?
The rankings compare specific metrics like size and value, not overall condition or charm. This home ranks well for living area in the neighborhood and for lot size city-wide, which are objective strengths. Its lower rank for assessed value on its street is a financial metric that may reflect its appeal to a value-conscious buyer.

5. What’s the main takeaway from all this data?
The home offers a compelling combination: more interior space than many neighborhood homes, a significantly larger-than-city-average lot, all at an assessed value that is modest for its immediate street. It represents a trade-off where space and land are prioritized over a newer construction date.
