92 Hammond Road – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1,014 sqft home built in 1969, sitting on a 6,235 sqft lot in Winnipeg’s Westdale neighbourhood. Its strongest asset is the lot size—above average at every level: on the street, in the neighbourhood, and citywide. The year built is similarly notable, ranking elite on Hammond Road (top 2%), though it falls below the Westdale average and sits around the city median.
The living area is modest, ranking near the bottom third citywide, and assessed value tracks closely with local averages: $331,000, slightly above the neighbourhood norm but below the city average of $390,100.
The appeal here is straightforward: you’re paying for land and location rather than square footage. The lot offers potential for expansion, landscaping, or simply more outdoor space than most comparable properties nearby. The home’s age, while not unusual for the area, is consistent with a generation of post-war bungalows and side-splits that many buyers in Westdale appreciate for their solid construction and established neighbourhoods.
This property would suit a buyer who values outdoor space and is willing to compromise on interior square footage—perhaps someone looking to renovate, add an extension, or simply enjoy a larger yard in a mature, central-Winnipeg neighbourhood. It’s less suited to someone seeking a move-in-ready, spacious interior or a newly built home.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes in the area?
The assessed value is $331,000, which is slightly below the Hammond Road average ($337,100) but above the Westdale average ($307,400). Citywide, it’s below the average for comparable homes ($390,100), so it’s priced modestly relative to the broader market.
2. Is the lot large enough for a garage addition or secondary suite?
At 6,235 sqft, the lot is above average for both the street and neighbourhood, and roughly on par with the citywide average. Zoning permitting, there is likely room for a detached garage, workshop, or potentially a laneway house—but you would need to verify local bylaws and setbacks.
3. How does the living area rank compared to other homes?
It’s around average on Hammond Road (top 61%) and in Westdale (top 53%), but below average citywide (top 72%). The 1,014 sqft is typical for a mid-century bungalow but smaller than many newer builds or larger family homes in Winnipeg.
4. What does the “year built” ranking tell me about this home?
It was built in 1969, which puts it among the newer homes on Hammond Road (top 2%), but it’s older than the Westdale average (1971) and close to the citywide median (1966). In short, it’s a well-aged home that’s relatively modern for its immediate street but not unusually new for the neighbourhood.
5. Is this property suitable for a first-time buyer?
It could be, depending on your priorities. The lower living area and average assessed value keep the price reasonable, but the larger lot and older construction may mean ongoing maintenance or renovation costs. First-time buyers looking for a starter home with room to grow—and who don’t mind some work—might find it a good fit.
