Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 1983-built, one-storey home in Elmhurst offers a practical layout with 1,130 sqft of living space and a finished basement, situated on a generous 5,527 sqft lot. Its key appeal lies in its established neighborhood setting and its relative modernity compared to most houses on its street—it is newer than 97% of the homes on Woodchester Bay. The property presents a balanced profile: while its living space is modest relative to the broader area, its lot size, recent assessment value, and newer construction date offer solid fundamentals. It includes a connected garage and avoids the maintenance of a pool.
This home would suit first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable, single-level living space in a mature community. It’s also a candidate for buyers who value a larger lot with potential for gardening or expansion over a larger interior footprint. The strong rankings for its age and assessment value suggest it could be a competitively positioned, lower-maintenance option in its immediate area.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "ranking" data mean?
The rankings compare this home against others on its street, in Elmhurst, and across all of Winnipeg for specific metrics (like lot size or age). For example, being newer than 97% of houses on its street is a notable advantage, while its living space is more average compared to the city.
2. Is the basement included in the 1,130 sqft living area?
No, the 1,130 sqft refers to the above-ground living space. The home has a separate, finished basement, which adds additional usable area.
3. How does the lot size compare to typical properties?
At 5,527 sqft, the lot is notably spacious. This is a key feature, offering more outdoor space than many properties and ranking highly on its own street.
4. What might the "finished basement" entail?
The listing confirms the basement is finished, meaning it has been developed into livable space (such as a rec room, office, or additional bedrooms), but the specific layout and features would need verification via a viewing or detailed listing sheet.
5. Why is the home's age considered an appeal?
Built in 1983, it is a relatively modern structure compared to many in mature Winnipeg neighborhoods. This can mean fewer concerns with outdated building materials, more modern electrical systems, and potentially lower immediate maintenance costs than much older homes.
