Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This property stands on a notably large lot—223,889 square feet—placing it in the top 1% city-wide for land area in Winnipeg. The house itself is 2,706 square feet, which is slightly below the average for its street but well above the city-wide median. Built in 2006, it is newer than most homes in the city (top 14%) and roughly in line with the neighbourhood average. Its assessed value of $1.43 million is in the top 1% city-wide and top 14% within the area.

The appeal here is not about the house being the largest or most luxurious on its street, but about land. Buyers are paying for a rare combination: a relatively modern home on a lot that dwarfs most city properties. The lot size alone signals privacy, potential for expansion, or simply space that is hard to find inside the city limits.

This property would suit buyers who prioritize land over finishings—someone looking for acreage-style living without leaving Winnipeg. It may also appeal to those who want room for workshops, gardens, outbuildings, or keeping animals, provided zoning allows. It is less suited for someone seeking a turn-key urban home or who values being central to city amenities.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes nearby?
On the street, the $1.43 million assessment is above average (top 28%), but within the neighbourhood it ranks top 14%. The largest gap is city-wide, where it sits in the top 1%, reflecting how uncommon both the lot size and house size are in Winnipeg.

2. Is the living area considered small for a house at this price point?
It is average for the street, but the house is not priced on square footage alone. The primary value driver is the land. A buyer comparing purely on living area per dollar may find better value elsewhere, but the lot changes the calculation.

3. What does the land area allow in practice?
At roughly 5.1 acres, the lot is among the largest 136 properties out of nearly 200,000 in the city. This opens possibilities for significant landscaping, additional structures, or separation from neighbours. However, buyers should verify zoning and any restrictions on use or subdivision.

4. How does the year built affect the property's condition or maintenance?
Built in 2006, the home is roughly 18 years old as of 2024. This typically means major systems (roof, HVAC, windows) may still have useful life left, but it is old enough that a home inspection is wise. It is newer than most homes in the neighbourhood (average 1996) and city-wide (average 1966), so it may require fewer immediate updates.

5. Can I view this property relative to others in the neighbourhood on a map?
Yes. The page includes a link to an interactive neighbourhood analysis map that compares year built, living area, assessed value, and lot size with nearby homes. This is useful for getting a visual sense of how the property fits into the street and area.
