Property Overview
163 Irving Place is a one-storey home in Winnipeg's Kildonan Drive area, built in 1952. Its key appeal lies in its generous, above-average land size of over 10,000 sq ft, offering significant outdoor space in a city-wide context. The home itself, at 1,119 sq ft, is more compact and below average for its immediate street, but it features a renovated basement. A detached garage completes the property. Its assessed value is notably strong within the local Kildonan Drive area.
This home would best suit a buyer who prioritizes land over living square footage—perfect for gardening, expansion, or simply enjoying a large private yard. It’s a practical option for downsizers or first-time buyers seeking a manageable single-level layout with modernized below-ground space, set on a substantial lot that is rare for the city. The value appears to be anchored more in the land and location than in the size or newness of the dwelling.
