Property Overview
This home at 217 Lindmere Drive in Winnipeg's Linden Woods neighbourhood presents a balanced and above-average offering within its context. Built in 2003, its key appeal lies in its strong positional value. The 1,839 sqft living space is comfortably sized, but the property truly stands out for its generous 6,678 sqft lot—significantly larger than most on the street—offering excellent outdoor potential. Its assessed value ranks highly both locally and city-wide, suggesting a solid investment in a desirable area.
The home suits buyers looking for a established property in a prime neighbourhood without the premium for a brand-new build. It’s ideal for those who value space for a garden, play area, or future expansion over having the largest interior square footage on the block. It also appeals to data-conscious buyers who appreciate its quantifiable strengths: a newer build date than most city homes, a lot size in the top tier for the street, and an assessment that indicates strong value retention.
