Property Overview
This home at 182 Westchester Drive in Winnipeg's Linden Woods neighbourhood presents a solid, established family property. Its key appeal lies in its above-average living space relative to both the city and its immediate street, offering more room than many comparable homes. Built in 1989, it is a typical home for the area, neither the newest nor the oldest. The lot size is slightly more compact than others in Linden Woods but is consistent with the city-wide average. Its assessed value is moderate for the neighbourhood, suggesting it is positioned as a practical rather than a premium-priced entry into this sought-after area. This combination suits buyers looking for a spacious, well-located family home in a mature neighbourhood without the premium often attached to newer builds or the largest lots. It’s a practical choice for those who prioritize interior space and neighbourhood amenities over a sprawling yard or a brand-new construction.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the living space truly compare to other homes?
The home's 2,162 sqft of living area ranks in the top 20% on its own street and the top 7% city-wide, meaning it offers significantly more interior space than the average Winnipeg home. Within Linden Woods, it is still above the neighbourhood average.
2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is one data point. The home last sold between $500k-$550k in 2020. Market conditions, property updates, and buyer demand will determine the final price, but the assessment suggests it is not among the highest-priced homes in the area.
3. What does the lot size mean for privacy and outdoor space?
At just under 6,000 sqft, the lot is below the Linden Woods average. This may mean smaller distances to neighbouring homes compared to others in the neighbourhood, but it still provides a good-sized yard typical of many city suburbs.
4. As a 1989 build, what should I be prepared for?
Homes of this age are often past the initial wear-and-tear of major original components. A prospective buyer should budget for potential updates to items like roofing, windows, or major mechanical systems, which may be nearing the end of their typical lifespan.
5. How can I get the exact historical sale prices?
The exact sold prices are not publicly displayed. You can request them directly via the provided email form on the listing page. The service promises to provide the accurate figures manually, typically by the end of the same day, without using your email for marketing.
