Property Overview
36 Millfield Drive presents a well-proportioned family home in Winnipeg's Minnetonka neighbourhood. Built in 1972, it offers 1,386 square feet of living space on a generous 9,081 square foot lot. The home's key appeal lies in its balanced, above-average positioning across several metrics when viewed in the wider city context. It last sold between $400,000 and $450,000 in 2022.
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This property stands out for its substantial lot size, which ranks within the top 25% of the Minnetonka area and the top 8% city-wide, offering significant outdoor space relative to many Winnipeg homes. While the living area is average for its immediate street and area, its assessed value ranks above average city-wide, suggesting a solid valuation foundation. The home is newer than most on its street, which may imply updates or a different construction era than immediate neighbours.
Its primary appeal is for buyers seeking a established neighbourhood character with a larger-than-average yard for gardening, recreation, or future expansion. It would suit a practical buyer—perhaps a young family or downsizer—who values space over a brand-new build, and who appreciates a home that performs steadily in broader city comparisons rather than just on its own block. The consistent sales history indicates a stable, in-demand location.
