Property Overview: 15 Wendilene Street, Mission Gardens, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 1,459 sqft home, built in 1987, presents a solid, balanced offering in the Mission Gardens neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its above-average land size—a 6,101 sqft lot that ranks in the top 23% for the area—providing valuable outdoor space that is less common in newer subdivisions. The living space is comfortably sized, ranking above average within Mission Gardens itself, suggesting it offers more room than many immediate local alternatives.
The home’s assessed value is positioned above the neighbourhood average, indicating it is viewed as a relatively substantial property within its specific community context. It suits buyers looking for a established, mature-lot neighbourhood without sacrificing interior space. It’s particularly well-matched for those who prioritize yard size over a brand-new build, and for value-conscious buyers who appreciate a property that stands well against its direct local peers, even if it appears more average in broader city comparisons.
