Property Overview: 4128 Roblin Boulevard
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a well-established family home in the Marlton area, offering a classic 1970s 3-level split layout on a notably large, nearly 10,000 sqft lot. Its key features include a finished basement and a detached garage. The home’s primary appeal lies in its generous outdoor space, which is significantly larger than most in Winnipeg, ranking in the top 7% for lot size city-wide. This presents a major opportunity for gardening, recreation, or future expansion. The interior living space is practical at just over 1,200 sqft.
The property would suit buyers looking for a solid, no-frills home in a mature neighbourhood, where the land itself is a primary asset. It’s ideal for those who value private outdoor space over a brand-new build and are comfortable with a home that has character and a functional layout from its era. The strong lot-size ranking suggests a property that feels more private and spacious than its peers, a trade-off for the home’s average rankings in age and assessed value within its immediate area.
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 7% for lot size in Winnipeg means the yard is exceptionally large, while more average rankings in other categories show it’s a typical home for its neighbourhood in terms of age and size.
2. Is the finished basement included in the 1,207 sqft living area?
Typically, the listed "居住面积" (Living Area) refers to above-grade square footage. The finished basement is an additional bonus space, not counted in that official 1,207 sqft figure.
3. What are the considerations with a 1971 build?
A home of this age will have older components. Prospective buyers should pay special attention to the condition of the roof, windows, plumbing, and electrical systems during an inspection. The upside is the potential for solid construction and mature landscaping.
4. How does the assessed value relate to the listing price?
The $320,000 assessment is for municipal tax purposes and is not the market price. The listing price is set by the seller. The assessment being in a lower percentile suggests the city’s valuation is conservative compared to other homes, but market conditions ultimately determine sale price.
5. What is a 3-level split layout like?
This style features short flights of stairs separating living areas, often creating defined zones and multiple half-levels. It can offer good separation between living and sleeping areas but may feel less open than a modern bungalow or two-storey. It’s a layout characteristic of its time and worth experiencing in person.
