Property Overview
248 Linden Avenue is a modern, well-situated home in Winnipeg's Rossmere-B neighborhood. Built in 2010, it stands out as one of the newer properties on its street and within the wider area. With 1,343 square feet of living space and a 5,335 square foot lot, it offers above-average roominess for its immediate locale. Its assessed value of $385k is notably higher than many neighboring homes, reflecting its newer construction and larger footprint. Recent sales data indicates it sold for between $400k and $450k in early 2024.
The appeal of this property lies in its contemporary build within an established neighborhood. Buyers get the benefits of a modern home—likely with updated systems and less immediate maintenance—while being part of a mature community. It particularly suits buyers who prioritize a move-in ready home without the need for renovations, and who value having more space both inside and on the lot than many of the surrounding older homes. It represents a practical choice for those seeking a balance between modern comforts and neighborhood character.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home’s value compare to others nearby?
Its assessed value ranks in the top 4% on its street and in the Rossmere-B neighborhood, meaning it is valued significantly higher than most comparable homes nearby. This is primarily due to its much newer construction date.
2. Is the lot size typical for the area?
The lot is above average for Linden Avenue but is around the median size for the broader neighborhood and city. It offers a good balance of yard space without being an outlier.
3. What does the "Elite" ranking for the build year mean?
An "Elite" ranking indicates the home is among the newest in its comparison group. Built in 2010, it is far newer than the average home on its street (1951) and in Rossmere-B (1955), which is a key driver of its value.
4. Why is the citywide ranking for value only "Around Average"?
While the home ranks very high within its local context, the citywide average assessed value for comparable homes is slightly higher at $390.1k. This suggests that while it's a premium property in Rossmere-B, its value is more in line with the broader Winnipeg market.
