Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 1,138 sqft home sits on a 5,509 sqft lot. While the living space is more compact than some on its street, it is very much in line with the average for both the Mission Gardens area and the wider city. Its standout feature is its assessed value, which ranks in the top 10% for the neighbourhood and top 24% city-wide, suggesting a favourable tax assessment relative to many peers. The 2008 build date means it is a newer home compared to most in Winnipeg, likely requiring less immediate upkeep.
The property suits practical buyers looking for a modern, low-maintenance home without a premium price tag. It's ideal for first-time homeowners, small families, or downsizers who prioritize a newer build, a good-sized yard, and financial efficiency over expansive square footage. A thoughtful perspective is that this home represents a "smart buy" within its immediate circle—it offers the benefits of a newer property in a mature area, but without commanding the highest price on the block, potentially offering better long-term value.
