2 Breckenridge Close – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a well-established, single-family home in Whyte Ridge, built in 2003. It sits on a 7,397 sqft lot, which is larger than average for both the neighborhood and the city. The living area of 1,685 sqft is slightly below the street average of 1,967 sqft, but above the citywide average for comparable homes. The assessed value of $626,000 ranks very high—top 6% citywide—which signals strong market positioning and likely good condition or desirable features.
The appeal here is more about location and land than square footage. The lot size gives room for expansion, landscaping, or storage, and the build year is newer than most homes in Whyte Ridge (average build year in the neighborhood is 1994). The property ranks in the top 7% of the neighborhood for both value and year built, suggesting it stands out in terms of quality and recency.
This home would suit a buyer who prioritizes a newer build, a larger lot, and a strong resale value—families looking for space outdoors, or someone who wants a modern floor plan in an established suburban area without being on a brand-new street. It’s less suitable for someone seeking maximum interior square footage for the price, or a fixer-upper opportunity.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the living area compare to nearby homes?
The living area of 1,685 sqft is below the street average of 1,967 sqft, ranking 14th out of 19 homes on Breckenridge Close. However, it’s around average for Whyte Ridge overall, and above the citywide average for similar properties. So while it’s not the biggest on its street, it’s still a solid size relative to the broader market.
2. Is the assessed value realistic or overpriced?
The assessed value of $626,000 is above average at every level—street, neighborhood, and city. It ranks 3rd on the street and in the top 6% citywide. This reflects a combination of a newer build, larger lot, and likely good upkeep. It’s not a bargain, but the data suggests it’s in line with what comparable homes in the area are worth.
3. What’s the lot like, and can I build an addition?
The lot is 7,397 sqft, which is above the neighborhood average (6,175 sqft) and city average (6,570 sqft). On the street, it’s around the middle of the pack. The extra space offers flexibility for a garage, shed, garden, or potential expansion—but you’d need to check local zoning and setback rules in Whyte Ridge before planning any major changes.
4. How old is the home, and is it well maintained?
Built in 2003, it’s one of the newer homes on the street (ranked 4 out of 19) and significantly newer than the neighborhood average of 1994. That means it likely has modern insulation, wiring, and building standards. A home inspection would confirm condition, but the recency is a plus for buyers wanting to avoid major immediate repairs.
5. What does the “rank” system actually mean?
The rankings compare this property to similar homes within three levels: street (Breckenridge Close), neighborhood (Whyte Ridge), and city (Winnipeg). A higher rank means it beats out more properties in that category. For example, a citywide rank of top 6% for assessed value means it’s more expensive than 94% of comparable homes across Winnipeg. The system uses living area, lot size, year built, and assessed value to give a relative picture—not a guarantee of quality.
