95 Mira Gate – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a newly built home (2022) on Mira Gate, a street where it ranks in the top 3% for both newness and living space. The house itself is 1,327 square feet—slightly above the citywide average for comparable homes, but noticeably smaller than the typical property in the surrounding West Kildonan Industrial neighbourhood. The assessed value ($339K) reflects this: it’s in line with other homes on the same street, but well below the broader area average of $443K, likely because many nearby properties are older and sit on larger lots.
The land area is the standout limitation. At 1,916 square feet, it ranks near the bottom on its own street and in the bottom 2% of the neighbourhood. That means limited outdoor space and possibly less privacy than you’d get from a more typical Winnipeg lot. For a 2022 build, this is a trade-off you’re making for a central, established location and a newer home with modern finishes.
Who it suits: Buyers who prioritise a move-in-ready, low-maintenance new home in a mature area, and are willing to compromise on yard size. It’s a good fit for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors who want something efficient and easy to manage—not for someone looking for a large lot, a garden, or expansion potential. The street itself appears to be a strong pocket within a neighbourhood that’s otherwise more varied: on Mira Gate, the homes are newer and more uniform in size and value.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home compare to others on Mira Gate?
Very favourably in terms of size and age. It has the largest living area on the street (top 3%) and is one of the newest builds. Its assessed value is around average for the street, meaning you’re getting more square footage for a similar price point relative to neighbours.
2. Why is the assessed value lower than the neighbourhood average?
The West Kildonan Industrial area includes many older homes on much larger lots, some of which are over 3,800 square feet. That drives the average assessed value up. This property is new but compact, so its value reflects the building itself, not land size.
3. Is the small lot a problem?
Depends on your needs. If you want a big yard for kids, dogs, or gardening, it’s a real limitation. But for someone who values a newer, efficient home with less upkeep, it’s a feature rather than a drawback. Many buyers in this price range for a new build will face a similar trade-off in central Winnipeg.
4. What’s the neighbourhood like?
West Kildonan Industrial is a mixed area—part residential, part commercial/industrial. That’s likely why land sizes vary so much. Mira Gate itself seems to be a newer enclave within that zone, so the immediate street feels more uniform. You’d want to visit in person to gauge the surrounding noise, traffic, and nearby amenities.
5. How does this property rank city-wide?
It’s in the top 1% city-wide for year built (almost no homes in Winnipeg are newer), top 40% for living area, and around average for assessed value. That means it’s a very new home for the price, but you’re not getting exceptional value in terms of space or land—you’re paying for the build year and location.
