82 Taurus Way – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1,596 sqft home built in 2020 on a 4,015 sqft lot in the West Kildonan Industrial area. The property sits on a street where most homes were also built around 2020, so the immediate context is consistent and relatively new. The assessed value is $451k.
What stands out here is how the property ranks differently depending on the comparison level. Citywide, it’s above average in living space (top 26%) and assessed value (top 28%), and it’s in the top 3% citywide for year built—meaning it’s significantly newer than most Winnipeg homes. But on its own street, both the living area and assessed value are below the median, and the lot is slightly smaller than the street average. The lot size is also below average citywide, though it’s around average for the neighbourhood.
The appeal is in the trade-off. You get a newer, well-sized home in a neighbourhood where the averages suggest you’re not paying a premium compared to what’s nearby. The street has some larger, higher-valued homes, so this property offers a more accessible entry point relative to its immediate neighbours while still being above the citywide median. The home is also slightly newer than the neighbourhood average.
This would suit a buyer who wants a relatively new home without paying top-of-market for it, and who values being in a consistent, modern streetscape. It’s less suited to someone who needs a large lot or wants to be on the most established block in the area.
Possible FAQs
1. How does this home compare to others on the same street?
On Taurus Way, this home ranks 29th out of 39 for living area and 38th out of 39 for assessed value. Most homes on the street are larger and valued higher. It ranks around the middle for year built and lot size.
2. Is this a good value for the neighbourhood?
In the West Kildonan Industrial neighbourhood, the assessed value is around the median (ranked 306 out of 664). The living area is also average for the area. So relative to the broader neighbourhood, it’s fairly priced.
3. How does the lot size compare to other homes in Winnipeg?
The lot is 4,015 sqft, which ranks in the bottom 26% citywide. Winnipeg has many homes on larger lots, so this is smaller than typical. Within the neighbourhood, it’s closer to average.
4. What does “top 3% citywide for year built” actually mean?
Out of nearly 200,000 comparable homes in Winnipeg, only about 5,500 are newer than this one. The average home in the city was built in 1966, so this is well above the norm in terms of age.
5. Should I look at the street ranking or city ranking more carefully?
Both matter, but for different reasons. The street ranking shows how this property fits among its immediate neighbours—useful if you care about resale or curb appeal relative to nearby homes. The city ranking gives a broader sense of how it compares to the overall market. A home can be below average on its street but still well above citywide norms.
