1239 Wellington Crescent – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 1941-built home with 2,032 square feet of living space on a 12,246-square-foot lot, located on Winnipeg’s Wellington Crescent. What stands out most is the land: it ranks in the top 3% city-wide for lot size, and in the top 17% within the neighbourhood. That’s a meaningful advantage on a street where lots tend to be generous to begin with. The house itself is close to the average size for the street and the area—neither oversized nor undersized—which suggests it fits naturally into the local housing stock. Its assessed value is $907,000, placing it in the top 1% of properties across Winnipeg, though it sits near the median for Wellington Crescent itself. That combination—prime location, large lot, and a valuation that’s high city-wide but reasonable for the street—makes this property appealing to buyers who want a foothold on one of Winnipeg’s most prestigious streets without paying a premium that stands out among neighbours. It would suit someone looking for a solid postwar home with room to renovate, expand, or rebuild, and who values land over turnkey finishes.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the living space compare to other homes on Wellington Crescent?
It’s slightly below the street average of 2,574 square feet, ranking in the middle of the pack (146th out of 267). That means it’s not unusually small for the area, but it’s not one of the larger homes either. For many buyers, this offers a more manageable footprint on a generous lot.

2. Is the property overvalued relative to its neighbours?
Not really. Its assessed value of $907,000 is close to the Wellington Crescent average of $929,000, and slightly above the broader community average of $806,000. So while it’s a high-value property by city standards, it’s priced in line with what similar homes on the street are worth.

3. What does the age of the home mean in practical terms?
Built in 1941, it’s older than the average Winnipeg home but actually newer than the typical home in its immediate neighbourhood (average build year 1940). That suggests the surrounding area has a mix of older and newer homes, and this one falls somewhere in the middle. Buyers should expect the usual considerations for a home of this era—foundation, plumbing, electrical—but the lot’s value may offset the need for immediate updates.

4. How usable is the lot?
At over 12,200 square feet, it’s a large urban lot—bigger than 97% of properties city-wide. On Wellington Crescent, it’s slightly smaller than the street average but still ranks in the top half. It offers room for gardens, outdoor living, or future expansion, and the lot itself is likely the property’s strongest asset.

5. Who typically buys on Wellington Crescent, and does this property fit that profile?
Buyers here tend to prioritize location, land, and long-term value over modern interiors. This property fits that mindset well: it’s not the biggest or newest house on the street, but it offers a rare combination of a top-tier address, a large lot, and a valuation that hasn’t outpaced its neighbours. It’s a good match for someone who sees the house as a base and the land as the real investment.
