This is a compact 720 sqft home built in 1973, sitting on a 3,398 sqft lot in Winnipeg’s Westdale neighbourhood. The assessed value is $267,000.
Where the appeal lies: The property’s main strength is its value relative to the local market. Though the living area and land are both below street and neighbourhood averages, the assessed value holds close to the street average ($271,800) and remains well under the neighbourhood average ($307,400). For a buyer focused on purchase price and monthly costs rather than square footage, this represents a relatively affordable entry point into a neighbourhood where larger, pricier homes are the norm.
What stands out less obviously: The home was built in 1973, which is newer than the neighbourhood median (1971) and citywide median (1966). In a market where many homes date from the 1950s and 1960s, this property may have more modern construction standards, electrical, or plumbing—something that doesn’t show in the size rankings but matters for maintenance and renovation costs.
Best suited for: First-time buyers or downsizers who prioritize affordability and a manageable footprint over generous living space. Also suitable for someone who values location (Westdale) and is open to a smaller home that may need cosmetic updates rather than structural overhauls. Not ideal for families needing multiple bedrooms or large open areas, or for buyers expecting significant land for gardening or expansion.
1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes on this street?
It’s slightly below average. The street average is $271,800, and this property is assessed at $267,000, ranking in the top 57% of 44 comparable homes. That means a good chunk of homes on the street are valued higher, but it’s not an outlier.
2. Is the small living area a dealbreaker for resale?
It depends on the buyer pool. Homes under 800 sqft tend to appeal to a narrower segment—singles, couples without children, or investors renting to students or singles. In Westdale, the average living area is 1,029 sqft, so you’re competing with larger homes. That said, a well-maintained smaller home can sell quickly if priced realistically, especially for buyers prioritizing low utility costs and easier upkeep.
3. How old is the property, and does it need major work?
Built in 1973, it’s newer than the neighbourhood average. Homes from that era often have aluminum wiring and older windows, but also more uniform floor plans and fewer of the structural quirks found in pre-1960s builds. Without an inspection report, it’s wise to budget for updates to mechanicals (furnace, hot water tank, roof) if they haven’t been done recently.
4. Why is the land area so small compared to other homes in Westdale?
Westdale has many properties on larger lots—over 5,000 sqft on average. This one sits on 3,398 sqft, which is on the smaller end even for its own street (average 3,839 sqft). That means less yard maintenance but also less privacy from neighbours and limited space for garages, sheds, or outdoor entertaining.
5. What’s the neighbourhood like for daily life?
Westdale is a well-established residential area with a mix of single-family homes and some multi-family buildings. It’s close to the University of Manitoba and major routes like Pembina Highway, so it’s popular with professionals and students. Schools, parks, and shopping are within a short drive, but the area isn’t especially walkable for errands. The smaller lot means you won’t have a large backyard, but the trade-off is less time on yard work and more access to nearby amenities.
