Property Overview
This home at 95 Helen Mayba Crescent presents a compelling opportunity in Winnipeg's Meadows neighbourhood. Built in 2012, it is a notably newer property compared to most of the city. Its primary appeal lies in its generous proportions, featuring over 2,250 square feet of living space on a large 6,572 sqft lot. This combination of a modern build with ample room sets it apart.
The data shows its strengths clearly: its living area ranks in the top 1% for the Meadows area and the top 6% city-wide. While its assessed value of $550k is above average for its immediate street, it holds a more competitive position within the broader neighbourhood and city context. Recent sale history indicates steady value appreciation.
This property would best suit buyers looking for a modern home that avoids the premium of brand-new construction, but who still want the benefits of a newer build (like updated building codes and potentially lower maintenance). It’s ideal for families or those who value spacious, flexible living areas and a sizable yard, all within a community where the home’s size is a standout feature.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the assessed value relate to the likely selling price?
The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes. The recent sold price history (e.g., $600k-$650k in 2022) is often a more direct indicator of current market value, though market conditions change. The assessment provides a useful benchmark for comparing the property's municipal tax burden against similar homes.
What does it mean that this is one of the newest homes on the street?
Ranking in the top 2% for year built on its street suggests it likely has more modern infrastructure, materials, and energy efficiency than its immediate neighbours. This can be an advantage, but it's wise to consider if the architectural style fits the streetscape.
Are the property taxes likely to be high?
Given its above-average assessed value for the area, the property taxes will likely be correspondingly higher than those for a smaller or older home in the same neighbourhood. The exact amount can be verified through municipal records.
The lot is large, but how is it configured?
At 6,572 sqft, the lot is significantly larger than the area average. Prospective buyers should verify the lot's shape, orientation, and any potential easements to understand its full potential for gardening, recreation, or future expansion.
You mention exact sold prices require an email request. Why is that?
Sold price data is not always publicly disclosed in Manitoba. The service provides an estimated range from public sources, and obtaining the exact figure requires manual retrieval from proprietary sources, hence the email-based process.
