Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This two-storey home at 59 Claude Mongeau Place in Winnipeg's Grassie neighbourhood is a modern property built in 2016. With 1,719 sqft of living space and an attached garage, it sits on a generous 7,161 sqft lot. The home features a renovated basement. Its key appeal lies in its contemporary build within a well-established area, offering a balance of newer construction amenities and mature community setting. The data suggests it is a notably newer home compared to most in the wider city and even within its own desirable neighbourhood.
The property would suit buyers looking for a move-in ready, modern home without the premium often attached to brand-new builds. It’s ideal for those who value space, both indoors and on the lot, and prefer a home that likely requires less immediate upkeep. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home's living area is slightly below average for its immediate street, it ranks highly for its size and assessed value within the broader Grassie area and city-wide, indicating it occupies a sweet spot of value and desirability in the larger market context.
