This is a 1,201 sqft single-family home built in 1961, sitting on a 5,538 sqft lot in the Westwood area of Winnipeg. Compared to other homes on Sansome Avenue, the property is very close to the street average for living space, but its assessed value and land size fall noticeably below the street and neighbourhood medians. The home’s construction year is also slightly older than the surrounding stock, though not dramatically so.
The property’s main appeal is its solid, mid-range position. It’s not oversized or undervalued relative to its immediate neighbours—it’s neither a standout bargain nor a premium entry. That can be attractive for buyers who want something predictable and unremarkable in a statistical sense, especially if they’re prioritising location and street character over getting the biggest lot or newest build. It suits first-time buyers who want a reasonable floor plan without paying a premium for extra land, or downsizers who are fine with a slightly older home but want to avoid renovation-heavy fixer-uppers. Buyers looking for a clear value gap or upside in land size relative to the area should look elsewhere, as the numbers here are quite even.
1. How does this home’s property tax assessment compare to similar houses nearby?
It’s assessed at $331,000, which is below the average for both the street ($356,000) and the Westwood neighbourhood ($392,000). That means a relatively lower property tax bill compared to many nearby homes, though the difference isn’t extreme.
2. Is the lot size considered small or large for this part of Winnipeg?
At 5,538 sqft, the lot is smaller than the average for Sansome Avenue (5,792 sqft) and well below the Westwood average of 6,491 sqft. However, it falls closer to the citywide median, so it’s not unusually small on a broader scale—just slightly compact compared to the immediate area.
3. What does the “close to average” rating across most metrics actually mean for a buyer?
It means this property is statistically unremarkable in a neutral sense. You’re not overpaying for a standout feature, but you’re also not getting a hidden deal. For some buyers, that’s reassuring—it suggests the price and size are well-aligned with market expectations for this street and neighbourhood, which can make resale more predictable.
4. How old is the house, and should I expect major maintenance issues?
Built in 1961, it’s older than the typical home on Sansome Avenue (average 1963) and in Westwood (average 1966). That’s not unusual for the area’s housing stock, but a 63-year-old home will likely need updates to systems like plumbing, electrical, or roofing, depending on what the current owners have already done. It’s wise to budget for possible replacements.
5. Would this property appeal to an investor or someone looking for land value?
Probably less so. The lot is below average for the neighbourhood, and the assessed value doesn’t suggest much undervaluation. Investors typically look for a gap between land value and purchase price, or a large lot with subdivision potential—neither of which seems to apply here. It’s better suited for someone buying primarily for a home, not for land speculation.
