This is a 1,606 sqft home built in 1968 on a 5,971 sqft lot in Westwood, Winnipeg. Its assessed value is $404,000.
The property's strongest feature is its living area. At 1,606 sqft, it ranks in the top 29% on its street, top 18% in the neighbourhood, and top 25% citywide. This is noticeably more interior space than the typical home in any of those categories. The year built is also slightly newer than most nearby (top 18% in the neighbourhood), which means it avoids the oldest housing stock in the area.
The assessed value sits around average for the street and for the city, but slightly above average for the neighbourhood. The land area is essentially average across all three scopes—no standout feature there, but not a disadvantage either.
Where the appeal lies: The home offers above-average square footage without a premium on assessed value. For a buyer who prioritizes interior space over lot size or wants a home that's newer than many in Westwood without paying a neighborhood premium, this property hits a practical middle ground. It’s not a showpiece, but it’s solidly above average in the ways that matter most day-to-day.
Suitable buyers: Families or couples who want more room inside than most comparable homes in the area, especially if they plan to stay for a while. Also suitable for buyers who want a home that’s slightly newer than the neighbourhood median—less likely to need major structural updates than a 1960 or earlier build, but still old enough that renovation budgets should be realistic.
1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes nearby?
It’s right around the street average of $410,100 and the citywide average of $390,100, but slightly above the neighbourhood average of $392,100. So you’re not paying a notable premium for the extra living space.
2. Is the lot big enough for additions or a garage expansion?
At 5,971 sqft, the lot is average for the street and neighbourhood. It’s not oversized, so any significant expansion would depend on existing setbacks and zoning. It’s not a standout lot, but it’s not unusually small either.
3. How old is the home, and what should I expect maintenance-wise?
Built in 1968—that’s newer than most homes in Westwood (where the average is 1966) and newer than half the homes citywide. It’s not new, but it’s past the period when major systems (roof, furnace, windows) from the 1950s and early ’60s tend to fail. Still, a pre-purchase inspection is wise.
4. What’s the neighbourhood like in terms of resale value?
Westwood shows above-average assessed values compared to the city overall, and this home sits within that. The street itself is fairly typical in value. The broader neighbourhood is stable and slightly above average—not a hot market outlier, but not a weak one either.
5. How does this property rank for living space versus other homes I might see?
Very favourably. It’s in the top 18% of Westwood homes for living area and top 25% citywide. If interior square footage is a priority, this home outperforms most listings you’ll find in a comparable price or neighbourhood bracket.
