Property Overview: 24 Sandcliffe Court, Linden Woods
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This well-situated home in Linden Woods is defined by its generous proportions and established neighbourhood setting. Built in 1992, the property offers a substantial 2,318 sqft of living space, which ranks within the top 14% for its immediate street and an elite top 5% city-wide. Its true standout feature is the land: a 9,421 sqft lot that places it in the top 10% within Linden Woods, offering significant outdoor space that is increasingly rare. While the home’s assessed value is around the neighbourhood average, its last known sale price (2022, in the $650k-$700k range) and its metrics suggest you are paying primarily for space and location rather than a premium for a recently built or fully renovated property.
The appeal lies in securing above-average interior and exterior space in a sought-after, mature area. It suits buyers looking for a family home with room to grow, garden, or potentially expand, and who value the established trees and quiet court setting over a brand-new build. It’s a property for those who see the underlying value in a large lot and are comfortable with a home that may benefit from personal updates over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size compare to typical Winnipeg homes?
The lot is exceptionally large by city standards, ranking in the top 7% overall. At nearly 9,500 sqft, it offers significantly more outdoor space than the Winnipeg average of about 6,570 sqft.
2. The home sold in 2022. What does the price range indicate?
The sold price range of CA$650k–700k reflects the strong market conditions of that period. It indicates the premium buyers were willing to pay for a home of this size in Linden Woods at that time, and serves as a key benchmark for current value.
3. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the market price?
Not directly. The assessed value ($64.90k) is for tax purposes and is consistently much lower than market value. The sale history is a far more useful guide for understanding the home’s market worth.
4. What does the "above average" living area ranking mean for the street?
On Sandcliffe Court itself, this home has the largest living area. It ranks 1st out of 7 homes, making it the biggest house on the court—a point of distinction for privacy and scale.
5. The home is 34 years old. What should I consider?
While the building’s age is around the neighbourhood average, a home from the early 90s will likely have had several systems updated. A thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition and remaining lifespan of the roof, windows, HVAC, and major appliances, and to budget for any modernizations you desire.
