48 Roseglen Crescent, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1999-built home with 1,271 square feet of living space on a 5,375-square-foot lot. The numbers tell a story of a property that punches above its weight in value relative to its size—especially when you zoom out to the city level.
Where the appeal lies: The assessed value is $486,000, which ranks in the top 22% citywide. That’s notable because the living area itself is only around average for Winnipeg. So the value isn't coming from square footage alone. The land also stands out: the lot is in the top 18% on this street, meaning you’re getting more outdoor space than most neighbours. And the year built (1999) puts it among the newer homes in the area and citywide—top 18% across Winnipeg. In other words, this is a home that's newer and on a bigger lot than comparable city properties, and the assessed value reflects that combination.
One less obvious angle: the neighborhood (Whyte Ridge) skews toward larger homes—averaging 1,666 square feet—so this house is smaller than many nearby. But because it's newer and on a good-sized lot, its assessed value is competitive. That suggests a potential mismatch: you get newer construction and a decent yard, but you’re not paying for the full square footage premium of the neighbourhood. That could matter for someone who wants a well-built, modern home without stretching into the price range of the bigger houses around it.
Who it suits: Buyers who prioritize land and a newer build over maximum interior square footage. Also suited to those who want a home that's solidly above-average in citywide value rankings, without being the most expensive house on its street. It could work for a family who’d rather have a good backyard and a home built in the last 25 years than an older, larger house at the same price.
Five Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home’s living area compare to others nearby?
It's around average for Roseglen Crescent (1,310 sqft average on the street), but below average for Whyte Ridge overall, where the average is 1,666 sqft. Citywide, it’s close to the typical comparable home.
2. Is the assessed value reasonable for what you get?
Relative to the street, it's above average—$486K vs. $471K—but below the Whyte Ridge neighbourhood average of $529K. That gap is partly because Whyte Ridge has larger homes on average. Citywide, it’s well above the $390K benchmark, landing in the top 22%.
3. How old is the property, and does that matter for maintenance?
Built in 1999, which puts it among the newer homes in the neighbourhood (top 22%) and the city (top 18%). It's now about 25 years old, so typical mid-life updates (roof, windows, mechanicals) could be worth looking into, but it's not an older home needing major system replacements.
4. What’s the lot like compared to others?
The land area is 5,375 sqft, which is above average for the street (5,052 sqft) and ranks in the top 18% there. Within Whyte Ridge, it's roughly average. Citywide, it's slightly below the typical lot size, but not by much—it's in the top 47%.
5. How does this property rank overall across all four metrics?
It performs best on assessed value (top 22% citywide) and year built (top 18% citywide). Living area is around average. Land area is strong on the street (top 18%) but more ordinary at the neighbourhood and city levels. So it's a home that's newer than most, valued higher than average, but not oversized.
