8 Lachine Road – Property Summary
1. Key Characteristics, Appeal, and Suitability
This is a 900-square-foot home built in 1961, sitting on a 5,681-square-foot lot in Winnipeg’s Windsor Park neighbourhood. The property’s assessed value is $380,000. Compared to nearby homes, it’s on the smaller side for living space—ranking in the bottom tier on its street and well below the neighbourhood average. However, the lot size is fairly typical for the area, and the assessed value sits slightly above the neighbourhood average, suggesting the land or location carries weight. The house itself is older than many citywide comparables but in line with others on the same street.
The appeal here isn’t square footage or a modern build. It’s about value relative to the neighbourhood and the potential of a larger-than-average lot for its street. The property would suit buyers who are comfortable with a modest interior but see opportunity in the land—whether for renovation, future expansion, or simply enjoying an outdoor space that’s more generous than the house suggests. It’s not a turnkey home for someone wanting move-in-ready space; it’s a better fit for those who prioritize location and lot over current floor plan, or for buyers looking to enter Windsor Park at a more accessible price point.
2. Five Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the living space actually feel for a 900-square-foot home?
A: It’s compact by modern standards. The layout matters more than the number—some 900 sq ft homes feel tight, others flow well due to efficient room sizes and minimal wasted hallway space. A site visit will tell you more than the rank.
Q: Is the assessed value of $380,000 a reliable guide to the market price?
A: Assessments are a snapshot, not a prediction. They’re useful for comparison against similar homes, but market conditions, recent sales, and renovation potential can push a sale price above or below that figure. In this case, the assessment is slightly above the street average, which may indicate stable demand.
Q: What does the lot size really offer compared to other homes?
A: At 5,681 sq ft, it’s average for Windsor Park but smaller than the typical citywide lot. It’s not oversized for a major project, but it gives more breathing room than many newer infill properties. For gardening, a detached shed, or backyard entertaining, it’s workable.
Q: Why is the living area ranked so low when the lot size and value are more competitive?
A: This is a common pattern in older neighbourhoods where homes were built smaller but on decent-sized lots. The property’s value is more tied to the land and location than the house itself. Buyers often pay for what they can do with the property, not just what’s standing.
Q: What should someone look out for with a 1961 build?
A: That era can have solid construction, but also outdated electrical, plumbing, or insulation. Roof and foundation are worth a close look. It’s not a red flag—many homes from that decade are well-maintained—but a pre-purchase inspection is wise, especially if there’s no record of major updates.
