Property Overview: 19 Denton Place
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This spacious two-storey home in Winnipeg's Marlton area is defined by its generous scale and established presence. Built in 1983, it sits on a large, approximately 11,746 sqft lot, offering substantial outdoor space that is increasingly rare. With nearly 2,900 sqft of finished living space, including a developed basement, the home provides ample room for family life, entertaining, or hobbies. Its standout feature is its exceptional ranking in size, placing it within the top 1% of homes in Winnipeg, which speaks to its uncommon interior volume.
The appeal lies in a combination of space, value, and a mature setting. The property's high city-wide rankings for lot size, living area, and assessed value suggest a home that offers more square footage and land than the vast majority of Winnipeg properties at its price point. It suits buyers who prioritize space over newness—those looking for a large family home, multi-generational living possibilities, or simply room to grow without the premium of a brand-new build. It’s an ideal match for practical buyers who see the value in a well-maintained, established property on a quiet street, where the investment has gone into land and living area rather than recent renovations.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "ranking" data actually mean?
The rankings compare this property to others on its street, in Marlton, and across all of Winnipeg. For example, being in the top 1% for living area means it is larger than 99% of Winnipeg homes, highlighting its standout spaciousness.
2. Is a 43-year-old home a concern?
While not new, the home's age is typical for the neighbourhood. The key will be the condition of major systems (roof, windows, furnace) and maintenance over the years. Its high assessment value relative to age suggests it has been well-kept.
3. Who might this property not suit?
Buyers seeking a modern, open-concept layout or a turn-key, recently renovated home may find the 1983 floor plan and likely decor require updates. It's best for those comfortable with some potential projects.
4. What are the advantages of such a large lot?
Beyond privacy and space for play or gardens, a lot of this size (over a quarter-acre) offers long-term flexibility for additions, a large shed, or landscaping features that smaller lots cannot accommodate.
5. The assessment value is listed at $649,000. Is that the sale price?
No. The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes. The sale price is set by the seller and the market, and can be higher or lower than the assessment.
