Property Summary: 114 Bloomer Crescent
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a spacious, well-situated family home in the established Varsity View neighbourhood. Built in 1999, it offers modern practicality within a mature setting. The key feature is its generous scale: with over 2,000 sqft of living space on a large, approximately 9,474 sqft lot, the home provides ample room both indoors and out. It is a one-storey design with a finished basement and an attached garage.
Its appeal lies in its proven desirability and space. The home ranks in the top tier for lot size, living area, and assessed value not just on its street, but across the wider community and Winnipeg itself. This indicates a property that is consistently competitive in the market. The less obvious perspective is that a 27-year-old home often represents a "sweet spot"—major systems may be newer than in much older homes, while the neighbourhood has had time to fully establish its character and landscaping.
This property would best suit buyers looking for a move-in ready, single-level living option with plenty of room for a growing family or for hosting. It’s ideal for those who value space and a strong, established neighbourhood profile over a brand-new build.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the ranking data actually mean?
The rankings show how this property compares to others. For example, being in the "top 7%" for lot size in Winnipeg means 93% of homes in the city sit on a smaller lot, highlighting the rarity of this much land.
2. Is the basement included in the 2,014 sqft living area?
Typically, the listed "living area" refers to above-grade, finished space. The home has a separate, finished basement, which adds significant additional usable space not reflected in that primary square footage figure.
3. The build year ranks lower on its street. Is that a concern?
This simply means there are newer homes on Bloomer Crescent. With a 1999 build, the home is still relatively modern and ranks as newer than most homes across the broader community and city, suggesting a good balance of established neighbourhoods with contemporary construction.
4. How should I interpret the high assessment value ranking?
Ranking in the top 4% of Winnipeg for assessed value confirms this is a substantial property in the city's market. It reflects the combined value of its large lot, generous living space, and desirable location.
5. What is the neighbourhood character of Varsity View?
