Property Summary: 533 North Point Boulevard
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 2023-built home with 1,388 square feet of living space on a 2,984-square-foot lot. The property’s standout feature is its age—it ranks in the top 1% citywide for newer construction, compared to an average Winnipeg home built in 1966. This alone signals lower immediate maintenance concerns and more modern building standards.
The assessed value of $432,000 sits well above the street average of $375,400 (top 8% on North Point Boulevard), suggesting this home is one of the more substantial or upgraded options on its block. However, the living area is only slightly above average for the street, meaning the higher value likely comes from quality, finishes, or lot positioning rather than square footage alone.
The land area tells an interesting story: generous for the street (top 14%) but below average citywide, where lots are often much larger. This gives the buyer a functional yard without the upkeep of a sprawling property.
Who it suits: This property will appeal to buyers who prioritize a newer, move-in-ready home in a street where nearby homes are also relatively new (average year built 2022). It’s a good fit for someone who wants a solid, current-build home without paying for a premium neighborhood or a massive lot they don’t need. First-time buyers, young families, or those downsizing from an older, larger property may find the balance right.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the assessed value compare to what I’d actually pay?
The assessed value of $432,000 is a municipal estimate for tax purposes, not a market price. On this street, it’s in the top 8%, which suggests it’s one of the higher-valued homes locally. The neighborhood average is $442,900, so the property falls slightly below that—meaning you may be getting a newer home in a street where values are somewhat lower than the broader area.
2. Is the 1,388 sqft living area small or typical for this price range?
It’s right around average for the street (1,404 sqft) and slightly above the citywide average for comparable homes (1,342 sqft). It’s not oversized, but it’s not cramped either. If you’re comparing to the neighborhood average of 1,591 sqft, you’re getting a bit less floor space, likely because homes here are newer and may include more efficient layouts.
3. Why is the year built such a strong selling point?
Most homes in Winnipeg were built in the 1960s or earlier. A 2023 build means newer plumbing, electrical, insulation, and windows. It also means you’re unlikely to face major replacements (roof, furnace, etc.) for many years. The top-1% citywide ranking isn’t just a number—it reflects a genuinely rare level of newness in the local market.
4. How much yard space should I expect?
The lot is 2,984 sqft. That’s larger than most homes on the street (average 2,598 sqft) but noticeably smaller than the neighborhood average of 3,839 sqft and the citywide average of 6,570 sqft. You’ll have a manageable yard—good for gardening or a small play area—but not a sprawling lawn.
5. What’s the neighborhood like in terms of home values and age?
West Kildonan Industrial has an average assessed value of $442,900 and an average build year of 2021. That’s a young, relatively consistent area. Your home is slightly below the neighborhood value average but newer than many (top 9% for year built). It’s a stable, modern pocket of the city, not a high-end or historic district.
