This property offers a notably large lot (9,730 sqft) that ranks in the top 7% in Whyte Ridge and across Winnipeg—a standout feature in a neighbourhood where most lots sit around 6,000–6,700 sqft. The house itself (1,773 sqft of living space) is slightly below the street average but still above the citywide median, placing it in the top 18% citywide for size. The structure was built in 1987, which is older than most homes on Bessboro Street (average year 2001) and within Whyte Ridge (average 1994), but newer than the citywide average. Its assessed value of $530,000 sits near the neighbourhood norm but is significantly above the Winnipeg median of $390,000.
The appeal here is pragmatic: you’re getting more land than most neighbours, a solidly mid-sized house, and a price that reflects the neighbourhood’s market rather than a premium for new construction. This isn’t a move-in-ready showpiece—it’s a property for someone who values outdoor space, possibly looking to garden, build a shop, or have room for kids and pets, and who doesn’t need the newest finishes. It would suit buyers who are comfortable with an older home in a well-established neighbourhood, and who see the lot size as a long-term asset rather than just extra maintenance. Because the house is older but in a desirable area, it may also appeal to renovators or those looking to build equity through updates.
1. How does this property’s lot size compare to others nearby?
The land area is 9,730 sqft, which is roughly 44% larger than the average lot on this street (6,740 sqft) and 58% larger than the typical Whyte Ridge lot. It ranks in the top 7% for the neighbourhood and citywide.
2. Is the house older than most in this area?
Yes. It was built in 1987, while the average home on Bessboro Street was built around 2001, and the Whyte Ridge average is 1994. However, it’s newer than the Winnipeg average of 1966. Buyers should expect that systems (roof, furnace, windows) may be closer to end-of-life or already replaced.
3. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes?
At $530,000, it’s slightly below the Bessboro Street average of $558,000 but essentially on par with the Whyte Ridge average of $530,000. It is well above the citywide average of $390,000, reflecting the neighbourhood’s higher land values.
4. What type of buyer would benefit most from this property?
Someone who prioritizes yard space and privacy over a newer or larger house. It’s also a good fit for buyers who are open to updating a home over time rather than paying a premium for recent renovations. The lot alone gives this property flexibility that many newer, smaller-lot homes in the area don’t.
5. Are there any drawbacks to the size of the living area?
At 1,773 sqft, it’s a functional family home but smaller than many other houses on the street (average 1,864 sqft). It’s not small by city standards, but buyers looking for a larger main-floor layout or an open-concept design from the 2000s may find the 1987 floor plan more compartmentalized. The square footage is average for the neighbourhood but not generous.
