43 Cavendish Court

Property Overview: 43 Cavendish Court, Linden Woods

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a substantial, well-established family home in the desirable Linden Woods neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its generous scale and premium lot size. With over 3,660 square feet of living space, the home ranks in the top 1% city-wide for size, offering ample room for a large or multi-generational family. The property sits on an 11,005 sqft lot, which is notably larger than most in Winnipeg (top 5% city-wide) and provides significant outdoor space and privacy—a rarer find in newer subdivisions.

Built in 1985, the home is mature but ranks above average for its age both on its street and city-wide, suggesting it is among the better-maintained or updated homes from its era. Its assessed value places it firmly in the elite tier for Winnipeg, aligning with its premium attributes. The home last sold in the $900k-$950k range in 2024.

This property would best suit buyers who prioritize space—both indoors and outdoors—over a brand-new build. It’s ideal for a family seeking a long-term home in a prime neighbourhood, where the value is derived from established landscaping, mature community feel, and a lot size that is increasingly difficult to find. It may also appeal to those who see potential in a solid, larger-footprint home from the 80s, whether for customization or simply for its proven, roomy layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s age impact its value and condition?
Built in 1985, the home is 41 years old. While this means some systems or finishes may be due for updates, its rankings show it is newer than the city-wide average home and comparable to others on its street. Its elite assessment suggests it has been well-maintained or updated, but a thorough inspection is recommended.

2. Is the lot size a major advantage?
Yes. At over 11,000 sqft, the lot is a standout feature. It ranks in the top 6% within Linden Woods and the top 5% across Winnipeg, offering exceptional outdoor space for gardens, recreation, or future additions—a key differentiator from newer homes on smaller lots.

3. Who determines the "Elite" or "Top 1%" rankings?
The rankings are generated by comparing this property's specific metrics (like living area, lot size, assessed value) against all other residential properties in Winnipeg, its neighbourhood (Linden Woods), and its immediate street. "Elite" typically means it falls within the top 1-5% of all homes for that metric.

4. The assessed value is listed at $91.40k. Is that the market value?
No. In Manitoba, the assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is often significantly lower than market value. The recent sale price between $900k and $950k in 2024 is the true indicator of its market worth.

5. How can I find out the exact past sale price?
The public data shows a price range. The listing service offers to provide the exact historical sale prices via a manual email request, which they aim to fulfill by the end of the same business day without using your email for marketing.
