86 Yasmin Ali Crescent
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a brand-new home, built in 2024, in the Waverley West B neighbourhood of Winnipeg. It offers 2,121 square feet of living space on a 4,384-square-foot lot, with an assessed value of $612,000.
The property’s strongest feature is its newness—it ranks in the top 2% on its street, top 3% in the neighbourhood, and top 1% city-wide for year built. That’s unusual for a resale listing. The living area is also well above average: top 18% on the street, top 8% city-wide. The assessed value is slightly above the street average but roughly in line with the neighbourhood, suggesting the price is competitive for what’s offered.
The land area is the one metric that’s merely average. At 4,384 square feet, the lot is typical for the street but significantly smaller than the neighbourhood average (12,967 sqft), which reflects Waverley West B’s mix of larger estate lots. This home likely sits on a standard modern infill or subdivision lot.
This property would suit buyers who want a move-in-ready home with no renovation needs, strong resale potential due to its age, and a size that’s generous for Winnipeg standards but not oversized. It’s less ideal for someone seeking acreage, a large yard, or a more established, mature neighbourhood.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the assessed value compare to similar newer homes nearby?
The assessed value of $612,000 is slightly above the street average ($580k) but below the neighbourhood average ($629k). That means you’re paying a modest premium for newness on this street, while getting a bit of a discount relative to the broader area’s newer homes.
2. Is the lot size typical for a 2024 build in this area?
Yes, it’s essentially average for Yasmin Ali Crescent (top 37%). But it’s notably smaller than the Waverley West B average, which includes many larger lots from earlier developments. If you want a low-maintenance yard without feeling cramped, this lot fits that middle ground.
3. What does “Top 8% city-wide for living area” actually mean in practical terms?
At 2,121 square feet, this home is larger than roughly 92% of comparable properties across Winnipeg. For context, the city-wide average is 1,342 sqft. That gives you noticeably more interior space than most homes in the city, especially older stock.
4. Why is the neighbourhood land area average so much higher than the street’s?
Waverley West B includes older subdivisions with larger, estate-sized lots (average 12,967 sqft). Yasmin Ali Crescent is a newer street where lots were subdivided more efficiently, so the street average (4,488 sqft) is much closer to this home’s lot size. The discrepancy just reflects different development phases.
5. Does the 2024 build year mean the home is still under builder warranty?
Yes, typically new homes in Manitoba come with a one-year warranty on materials and labour, plus longer coverage for structural components (often up to seven years through the New Home Warranty Program). Always confirm the specific coverage remaining with the seller.
