Property Summary: 83 Erlandson Drive

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 1,536 sqft home built in 1969, sitting on a 6,028 sqft lot in the Westwood neighborhood of Winnipeg. Its main draw is consistency: across every major metric—living space, assessed value, and year built—it ranks above average or near the median on its street and in the neighborhood.

The appeal is not flashy. The home is larger than most comparable properties on Erlandson Drive (ranked 9th out of 35) and in the wider city, but the lot size is essentially average for the street. The assessed value of $422k is also above average locally, reflecting the larger living area and newer build compared to the neighborhood norm (average build year in Westwood is 1966). This suggests a well-maintained, solid mid-century home that competes well without being an outlier.

This property would suit a buyer who wants a verified, data-backed sense of security. It's ideal for someone who values practical, above-average space over trendy finishes or a premium location. The house offers established, modestly better-than-average numbers for living area and condition compared to its immediate competition—but does not command a premium for land or status. It feels like a logical choice for a family or investor who wants to know they are getting more house than most on the block, without paying for a top-tier lot or a newly-built home.

Five Possible FAQs

1. How does the living space compare to other homes nearby?
It ranks in the top 26% on its street and top 23% in the neighborhood. At 1,536 sqft, it is roughly 130 sqft larger than the average home on Erlandson Drive and about 164 sqft larger than the Westwood average. It is a meaningfully bigger house than most of its direct neighbors.

2. Is the assessed value considered high or standard for this area?
It is above average for both the street (top 23%) and the neighborhood (top 22%), but essentially average citywide (top 33%). The $422k assessment is about $30k higher than the street average, which aligns with the larger living area. It is not overvalued relative to its size and age.

3. How old is the property, and is that unusual for the street?
Built in 1969, it is newer than most homes on Erlandson Drive (average 1968) and significantly newer than the neighborhood average (1966). It ranks in the top 14% on its street for newer construction, which is a small but notable advantage for long-term maintenance and resale.

4. Is the lot size a major selling point?
Not particularly. At 6,028 sqft, the lot is almost exactly average for the street and slightly smaller than the typical neighborhood lot (6,491 sqft). It ranks in the top 31% citywide, but that is more a reflection of Winnipeg’s mixed lot sizes than a standout feature. The house itself is the main asset, not the yard.

5. What does the "neighbourhood analysis map" show that the summary doesn't?
The map allows you to see how this property physically sits among nearby homes, with side-by-side data on lot shape, build year, and assessed value. It clarifies whether the above-average living area comes from a larger footprint, a second story, or a finished basement, and shows how its lot compares in depth and width to others on the block.
