This 1955-built home sits on a 5,530 sqft lot, with 850 sqft of living space. The assessed value is $257,000.
The property’s main strength is its lot size. At 5,530 sqft, it ranks in the top 24% on Seaton Street and slightly above the street’s average. This gives it outdoor space that stands out relative to its immediate neighbours. However, the living area and assessed value are both well below average for the street, the Westwood neighbourhood, and Winnipeg as a whole. The home ranks in the bottom 20% of the street for both size and value, and in the bottom 1% of Westwood. The build year is also on the older side, even for a neighbourhood where most homes date from the mid-1960s.
The appeal here is for a buyer who prioritises land over finished square footage—someone willing to take on a project or sees potential in updating or expanding a smaller home on a generous lot. It would suit a hands-on buyer, an investor looking for a renovation opportunity, or someone who values a quieter street in an established neighbourhood and is less concerned with a move-in-ready interior. This isn’t a house for someone seeking a polished, low-effort purchase; it’s a property with room to add value over time.
1. How does the property’s size compare to others in Westwood?
Living space and assessed value are notably below the Westwood average. The home ranks in the 99th percentile (i.e., near the bottom) for both metrics, meaning it’s significantly smaller and less valuable than most homes in the area. The lot, however, is closer to the neighbourhood average, ranking in the 73rd percentile.
2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the market price?
Assessed value is used for property tax calculation and is not a direct reflection of current market value. It’s a baseline, but actual sale price will depend on condition, recent sales, and how buyers value the lot for redevelopment or renovation potential.
3. What does the “rank” data actually tell me?
The rankings show how this property stacks up against comparable houses on the same street, in Westwood, and across Winnipeg. Higher percentiles (near 1st) mean it’s more desirable for that metric. For example, the lot ranks in the top 24% on the street, while living area ranks in the bottom 20%. It’s a useful way to see exactly where the property stands relative to its surroundings.
4. Does the older build year mean major repairs are likely?
A 1955 build is likely to have older systems—plumbing, electrical, roof, foundation, windows, insulation. It’s not a given that everything needs replacing, but a thorough home inspection of these key areas is highly recommended. The age alone suggests a higher likelihood of deferred maintenance compared to a newer property.
5. Who would this property not be a good fit for?
Buyers looking for a turnkey home with modern finishes, generous living space, or a low-maintenance property would likely be disappointed. Similarly, someone wanting to be in one of Westwood’s more sought-after homes or streets may find the size and price rank discouraging. This is a property for someone who wants to invest sweat equity or has a specific vision for the lot.
