6130 Wilkes Avenue – Property Overview

Key Characteristics & Ideal Buyer Profile

This is a 1997-built home with 1,744 square feet of living space sitting on an exceptionally large 250,747-square-foot lot. The property’s standout feature is the land: it ranks in the top 1% citywide for lot size in Winnipeg and the top 3% within its immediate neighbourhood. The house itself is newer than most homes on the street and across the city, though the assessed value ($651,000) is notably below the Wilkes South neighbourhood average of $968,900. This gap suggests the property offers more land for the price compared to neighbours, but also reflects that the home’s living area is below the local average.

The appeal here is land value and relative newness rather than square footage. For buyers who prioritize space outdoors—gardening, hobby farming, or simply privacy—this lot is a rare find in a city where the typical residential lot is under 7,000 square feet. The property would suit someone looking for a newer-construction home on a large parcel without paying top-of-market neighbourhood prices. It may be less attractive to buyers seeking maximum interior space or a house that blends seamlessly with higher-value homes in the immediate area.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the living area compare to other homes nearby?
The home’s 1,744 square feet is below the neighbourhood average of 2,399 square feet, ranking in the bottom 27% locally. However, it’s above the citywide average for comparable homes (1,342 square feet) and ranks in the top 19% across Winnipeg.

2. Why is the assessed value lower than the neighbourhood average?
The neighbourhood average of $968,900 is influenced by many larger and older homes on even bigger lots. This property’s lower value reflects its smaller living area relative to those homes, plus the fact that assessed value accounts for both land and structure. The land here is large, but the structure is modest by local standards.

3. Is the land usable for development or subdivision?
The lot is extremely large at roughly 5.75 acres, but specific zoning and municipal regulations would determine its potential for subdivision or additional structures. Buyers should verify with the city of Winnipeg before assuming development possibilities.

4. How does the home’s age compare to others in the area?
Built in 1997, it is newer than the street average (1972) and the citywide average (1966). Within the neighbourhood, it’s slightly older than the average (1996). This means the home is likely in better structural condition than many older properties nearby, though not the newest on the block.

5. What kind of maintenance or upgrades should a buyer expect?
A 1997 home is now over 25 years old. Major systems like the roof, HVAC, and windows may be approaching replacement age depending on prior upkeep. The large lot also requires significant ongoing maintenance—mowing, landscaping, and potential drainage management—which is uncommon for a typical city property.
