Property Overview: 126 Tweedsmuir Road, Linden Woods
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home presents a compelling blend of space, location, and value within Winnipeg’s desirable Linden Woods neighbourhood. Built in 1989, it is notably newer than many city-wide comparables. With 1,899 sqft of living area, it offers above-average space for Winnipeg overall, though it is a moderately sized home within its own immediate street and area. The lot size of 5,544 sqft is typical for the city but is on the more compact side for Linden Woods, which may appeal to those seeking lower outdoor maintenance without sacrificing yard space.
The appeal lies in its established, family-friendly setting with the practical advantage of a newer build date than many peers. Its assessed value sits significantly below the neighbourhood average, which can indicate a different valuation approach or present a potential value opportunity for buyers compared to other Linden Woods homes. The price history shows steady appreciation, with a sale in the $500k-$550k range in 2022 following a $400k-$450k sale in 2019.
This property would suit a buyer looking for a move-in ready home in a top-tier neighbourhood without the premium lot size or assessed value of its immediate neighbours. It’s a practical choice for professionals or growing families who prioritize interior space and community amenities over a sprawling yard, and for those who see value in a home that may be more affordably assessed within a high-demand area.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size compare to typical properties in Linden Woods?
The lot of 5,544 sqft is below the neighbourhood average. This means less yard maintenance but also potentially less private outdoor space than some other homes in the area.
2. The assessed value seems low for Linden Woods. What does that indicate?
Its assessment is in the bottom tier for the neighbourhood. This doesn’t necessarily reflect market value, but it can suggest the property is viewed differently by the assessor, possibly due to lot size, specific features, or the assessment model itself. It’s important to evaluate the current market price independently.
3. What does the "newer" build year mean for a 1989 home?
While 35 years old, it’s newer than 94% of homes on its street and the majority city-wide. This often suggests updates in construction standards and materials for its era, and potentially less immediate need for major system replacements compared to older vintage homes.
4. Has the property value increased over time?
Based on available sales data, the home sold in the $400k-$450k range in 2019 and then in the $500k-$550k range in 2022, indicating notable appreciation over that three-year period.
