Property Overview: 175 Larchdale Crescent, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a notably spacious and well-situated one-storey home in Winnipeg's Kildonan Drive area. Its primary appeal lies in its generous proportions, both in the home itself and the land it occupies. With 2,625 square feet of living space, it ranks in the top 1% of homes on its street and top 2% city-wide for size. The property sits on a large 13,461 sqft lot, placing it in the top 3% of all Winnipeg homes for land area. These metrics suggest a home that offers ample room for living, entertaining, and outdoor enjoyment, a rarity compared to most local listings.
The home features an attached garage and a renovated basement, adding functional living space. Built in 1962, its age is typical for the neighbourhood, but its maintained and updated condition is reflected in its above-average assessed value for the area. The appeal is one of established space and privacy in a mature setting. It would best suit buyers who prioritize interior square footage and a sizable yard over a newer build, such as multi-generational families, those who work from home and need dedicated space, or anyone looking for a property with room to grow without moving to the city's outskirts.
