Highlights & common questions: 42 Kettering Street, Winnipeg

Here is a clean, standalone summary of the property at 42 Kettering Street, written for direct display on a webpage.


Key Characteristics & Ideal Buyer Profile

This property, built in 1974, is a 1,020 sqft home on a 4,327 sqft lot in the Westdale neighborhood. Its strongest asset is its lot and position on the street. It ranks at the very top (#1 out of 44) on Kettering Street for both lot size and year built, meaning it has the largest plot and is the newest home on the block. The living area is also well above the street average (837 sqft), landing in the top 11%.

However, the context shifts as you zoom out. While the home is competitive on its street, it sits right at the neighborhood average for both size and assessed value, and falls below the citywide average for comparable homes. The assessed value of $296K is a notable discount from the neighborhood average of $307K and well under the city average of $390K. This creates an interesting dynamic: a property that is a top performer locally but a relative bargain citywide.

The appeal lies in getting a larger-than-average lot and a newer build on a specific street, without paying a premium relative to the broader market. It would suit a buyer who values immediate street-level advantages—like a big yard and a more modern structure—over neighborhood prestige or citywide metrics. This is a practical choice for someone who wants to maximize square footage and outdoor space per dollar, rather than buying into the most expensive part of the neighborhood. It may also appeal to investors looking for a property with strong lot value relative to its assessment.


Possible FAQs

1. How does the lot size compare to other homes in Westdale?
While the lot is the largest on Kettering Street, it is only around average for the wider Westdale neighborhood. The neighborhood average for lot size is 5,168 sqft, so this property’s 4,327 sqft is smaller than many older, deeper lots in the area.

2. The assessed value is lower than the neighborhood average. What does that mean for taxes?
It likely means your property taxes will be lower than the typical Westdale home. The city assesses this property at $296K, whereas the neighborhood average is $307K. Unless there is a recent significant renovation, you can expect a tax bill that reflects this below-average assessment relative to the immediate area.

3. Why is the home listed as “citywide below average” for living area?
The citywide average for comparable homes in Winnipeg is 1,342 sqft. This home is 1,020 sqft. It is a significantly smaller footprint than the typical citywide comparable. The strong street ranking is because many homes on Kettering Street are even smaller.

4. Is a home built in 1974 considered old or new for this area?
It is very new for the street. It ranks #1 out of 44 homes on Kettering Street for year built. For the wider Westdale neighborhood, it is still above average, as the average home there was built in 1971. Citywide, it is roughly average.

5. What is the main reason someone would choose this home over others in Westdale?
The primary reason is getting a larger, more private lot on a specific street without paying a top-tier neighborhood price. You are buying a standout property on its block for a cost that is below the neighborhood benchmark. The priority is street-level value over neighborhood-wide status.
