123 Roseglen Crescent – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a home that stands out more for its land and age than its interior square footage. Built in 2003, it’s the newest house on its street and among the newest in the Whyte Ridge neighbourhood—a meaningful advantage if you want a newer foundation, roof, and mechanicals without paying for a custom build. The lot measures 6,815 sqft, placing it in the top 10% locally and top 19% citywide. For Winnipeg, that’s a generous yard in an established area.
The living area is 1,214 sqft, which is slightly below the street and neighbourhood averages. That’s not a flaw—it just means the house is compact relative to its lot. The assessed value of $485k is above the street and city averages, but below the neighbourhood average, suggesting the price reflects the newer build and large lot more than interior size.
This property would suit buyers who prioritise outdoor space and a newer home over maximum interior square footage. It’s a good fit for someone who wants room for a garden, a shop, or kids to play, but doesn’t need a sprawling main floor. It’s also worth a look for buyers who prefer a home that’s already been through its first two decades—settled foundation, known maintenance history—rather than a fixer-upper from the 1990s or earlier.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the living area compare to similar homes nearby?
It’s below average on the street and in Whyte Ridge. The street average is about 1,310 sqft, and the neighbourhood average is 1,666 sqft. Citywide, the 1,214 sqft is almost exactly average for comparable homes, so it’s not unusually small—just compact for this area.
2. Is the assessed value a realistic market price?
The assessed value is $485k, which is above the street average of $471k and well above the citywide average of $390k. It’s below the Whyte Ridge neighbourhood average of $530k. That suggests the home is priced competitively for the area—paying a bit more than street neighbours, but less than the typical home in the broader neighbourhood.
3. Why is the year built a selling point here?
Built in 2003, it’s the newest home on Roseglen Crescent and among the newest 7% in Whyte Ridge. For a buyer, that means the home is 21–22 years old, which is often a sweet spot: major systems (roof, furnace, windows) may still have several years left, and the construction is modern enough to meet current building codes, unlike many homes in the area built in the 1990s or earlier.
4. How big is the lot, and what can you do with it?
The land area is 6,815 sqft, ranking 4th out of 39 homes on the street. That’s roughly 30% larger than the street average. In a neighbourhood like Whyte Ridge, where many lots are closer to 5,000–6,000 sqft, this gives you noticeable extra yard space—enough for a decent garden, a playset, or a potential future addition, subject to zoning.
5. What does the “Top 92%” or “Top 21%” ranking actually mean?
Those rankings compare this home to others in the same category. For example, “Top 21%” on assessed value means it’s valued higher than 79% of homes on the same street. “Top 92%” on living area means it’s smaller than 92% of street neighbours—only 8% are smaller. The bar fill shows how many homes you outperform; a longer bar means a better rank relative to peers in that scope.
