251 Arlington Street – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 2007-built home with 1,888 sq. ft. of living space on a 3,313 sq. ft. lot in the Wolseley neighbourhood. What stands out most is the property’s ranking relative to its street and city benchmarks. The assessed value of $513,000 places it in the top 1% on Arlington Street and top 9% in the neighbourhood, while the living area ranks in the top 6% on the street. The build year also ranks in the top 2% on the street and top 1% in the area, meaning it’s significantly newer than many nearby homes. The lot size, however, is slightly below the citywide average and sits around the middle of the pack for the street and neighbourhood.

The appeal lies in the combination of a relatively modern build and generous interior space in a central neighbourhood where many homes are older and smaller. It offers above-average square footage without the kind of oversized lot that demands heavy upkeep. This would suit buyers who want a newer home in an established area, value efficient use of indoor space over a large yard, and are comfortable with a price point that reflects its rarity on the street. It may also appeal to someone who prioritizes a strong resale position, given the assessed value and ranking data.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the lot size compare to other homes in the city?
At 3,313 sq. ft., this lot is smaller than the citywide average of 6,570 sq. ft., ranking in the bottom 17% across Winnipeg. Compared to other homes on Arlington Street and in Wolseley, it's close to the local averages and ranked around the 35th to 38th percentile.

2. What does the assessed value of $513,000 tell me about the market?
This value is well above the average assessed value on Arlington Street ($247,200), in Wolseley ($371,300), and citywide for comparable homes ($390,100). It signals that the home is considered a higher-end property within its immediate context, likely due to its age, size, and condition.

3. Is the house really that much newer than others in the area?
Yes. The year built ranks in the top 1% in Wolseley and the top 2% on Arlington Street. The average build year for comparable homes on the street is 1928, and in the neighbourhood it's 1916, so this home is roughly 80 to 90 years newer than the typical property nearby.

4. Does the ranking data mean I should expect higher property taxes?
Not necessarily in a straightforward way. Assessed value is one factor, but tax rates are applied citywide. A higher assessment does mean a higher tax bill compared to a lower-valued home, but the rankings reflect relative position, not the tax calculation itself. You can confirm the current mill rate with the city.

5. Why is the lot ranking so much lower than the house ranking?
This is common in older central neighbourhoods like Wolseley, where many homes were built on larger lots at a time when land was less expensive. The house itself is newer and larger inside, but the lot size is average for the area and below the city average because Winnipeg has many homes on larger suburban lots. It's a trade-off between central location and yard space.
