45 Sansome Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Fit

This 1,261 sqft bungalow, built in 1961, sits on a 5,640 sqft lot in Winnipeg’s Westwood neighbourhood. Its standout feature is assessed value: ranked 3rd out of 93 homes on Sansome Avenue (top 3%) and 24th in the wider neighbourhood (top 24%). This suggests the home carries a premium that may reflect updates, location advantages within the street, or lot positioning rather than sheer size. The living area (top 29% on the street) is slightly above average for the immediate block but falls a bit below both neighbourhood and city averages—so it’s not a sprawling home, but it’s competitive for its street. The lot is around the median for the area, and the 1961 build date is earlier than many nearby homes (bottom 17% on the street, bottom 13% in the neighbourhood). This means a buyer should expect an older structure that may need maintenance typical of its era, but the high assessment relative to neighbours hints that the property has been improved or is in a particularly desirable pocket. The appeal lies in getting a well-regarded address on a strong street without paying for excessive square footage. It suits buyers who prioritize location and value stability over raw space, and who are comfortable with an older home that has likely been cared for or upgraded.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s living area compare to others nearby?
It’s above average on Sansome Avenue itself (1,261 sqft vs. the street average of 1,244), but slightly below the neighbourhood average of 1,372 sqft. So you’re getting a home that’s on the larger side for its immediate block, but not oversized for Westwood as a whole.

2. The build year is 1961—should I expect major renovations?
Yes, it’s older than most homes on the street (average build year there is 1963) and significantly older than the neighbourhood average of 1966. Buyers should budget for potential updates to systems (electrical, plumbing, roof) unless recent work has been documented.

3. Why is the assessed value so high relative to similar homes?
The assessment ranks in the top 3% on the street and top 24% citywide, despite the home being slightly smaller than neighbourhood averages. This usually points to superior condition, recent renovations, a desirable lot orientation, or a location within a quieter or more sought-after section of the street.

4. How does the lot size affect the property’s usability?
At 5,640 sqft, the lot is near the median for the street (average 5,792 sqft) but smaller than both the neighbourhood and city averages. It’s a typical urban lot—adequate for a yard and garden, but not oversized. If you’re looking for extra space for a garage or expansion, you may find more on neighbouring streets.

5. What’s the best way to judge whether this property is overpriced?
Look beyond the assessment rank. Check recent sale prices of homes within a few blocks that have similar square footage and lot size, but also note their condition. Because this home’s value is high for its age and size, the premium is likely tied to renovations or location specifics—verify those before making an offer.
