204 Oakdean Boulevard – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This 1,591 sqft bungalow from 1951 sits on a 6,610 sqft lot in Woodhaven (Winnipeg). Its living space is above average at the street and city levels, and the assessed value of $395,000 is strong for Oakdean Boulevard but falls around the middle of the wider neighbourhood. The lot size is modest compared to other Woodhaven properties, though it actually beats the citywide average—meaning you get more outdoor space than many Winnipeg homes, just not as much as the bigger yards nearby.

The real strength here is the living area. For a 1950s home, 1,591 sqft is generous, and that shows in the rankings. The value is fair but not stretched: it’s priced slightly above street average yet below the neighbourhood median, suggesting the house itself (not the lot) is driving the number. The year built (1951) puts it among the older homes on the block, which may appeal to buyers who appreciate original character or are willing to update gradually—but it could also mean more maintenance in the near term.

Best suited for: buyers who prioritize indoor square footage over a large yard, want a solid mid-century home in an established neighbourhood, and are comfortable with a place that’s older than many nearby houses. Not ideal for someone seeking a newer build or a sprawling lot.

Five Possible FAQs

1. How does the lot size compare to other Winnipeg homes?
It’s actually above average citywide (top 20%), so you’re not cramped—but it’s small relative to Woodhaven, where many lots exceed 9,000 sqft. If you’re comparing within the neighbourhood, expect a snugger yard; if you’re coming from a newer subdivision, it’ll feel spacious.

2. Why is the assessed value higher than the street average but lower than the neighbourhood average?
The street has several smaller or older homes that pull the average down. Woodhaven overall has pricier properties, so $395k is near the middle of that larger group. The house itself is above-average for its immediate block but isn’t a standout in the broader area.

3. The house was built in 1951—should I expect major issues?
Not necessarily, but it’s worth checking the major systems: roof, furnace, electrical, plumbing, and foundation. Many homes of this era have been updated at least partially. The key question is whether the mechanicals and structure are original or have been replaced. An inspection is a good idea.

4. What does “Top 24%” on the street actually mean for living area?
Out of 89 comparable homes on Oakdean Boulevard, this one ranks 21st for size. That means roughly three-quarters of the homes on this street are smaller, so you’re getting a house with more interior space than most of your immediate neighbours.

5. How does this home compare to newer Winnipeg houses?
It’s older (1951 vs. citywide average of 1966), but the living area is larger than many newer homes, which often have smaller footprints and more compact lots. The trade-off is that you may need to budget for updates or repairs that a newer home wouldn’t require.
