77 Dickens Drive – Property Summary

Key Characteristics

This is a 1968-built home with 1,196 square feet of living space on a 6,803-square-foot lot. Its assessed value is $420,000.

What stands out most is the land. The lot ranks in the top 16% on the street, top 22% in the Westwood neighbourhood, and top 19% citywide. That’s noticeably larger than typical for the area. The year built is also a small advantage: it’s newer than most homes on the street (top 24%) and in the neighbourhood (top 18%).

The living area is the weaker point. At 1,196 square feet, it’s below average compared to other homes on Dickens Drive, which average around 1,445 square feet. Citywide, it lands right around the middle. The assessed value sits slightly above average locally—top 36% on the street, top 23% in Westwood—but aligns closely with the citywide median.

Who it suits: Buyers who prioritize outdoor space over interior square footage. The generous lot offers room for gardens, a workshop, an addition, or simply more privacy than neighbouring properties. It would also work well for someone who values a quieter, established neighbourhood over newer suburbs, and is comfortable with a home that’s solid but not oversized.


Five FAQs

1. How does the living area compare to other homes nearby?
On its own street, it’s smaller than average—ranked 64th out of 70 homes. In the broader Westwood neighbourhood and across Winnipeg, it’s roughly average. So the home feels compact relative to immediate neighbours, but isn’t unusually small for the city.

2. Is the assessed value a fair reflection of the property?
It’s slightly above the street average ($410k) and neighbourhood average ($392k), but close to the citywide median ($390k). The higher lot size likely contributes to this, even though the living area is modest. Keep in mind assessed value isn’t the same as market price—it’s a benchmark used for property tax calculations.

3. Why is the lot ranked higher than the living area?
The lot size is genuinely above average at every comparison level—street, neighbourhood, and city. Inside, the home is tighter. This is a common trade-off in older, established areas: you trade some indoor space for more outdoor room, especially on streets built in the late 1960s.

4. What does “ranked” mean here?
Each ranking compares this property against comparable homes within the same scope. For example, “top 16% on the street” means only 15% of homes on Dickens Drive have a larger lot. A higher rank (lower percentage) is better for lot size, year built, and assessed value. For living area, larger is better—so a top 91% ranking means it’s near the bottom.

5. Are there homes nearby that allow easy comparison?
Yes. The property detail page includes a neighbourhood analysis feature that maps this home alongside similar houses. You can compare year built, living area, assessed value, and lot size directly on the map. It’s useful for seeing how this property fits into the block and the wider Westwood area.
