86 Vineland Crescent – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1998-built, single-detached home in Whyte Ridge with 1,662 square feet of living space on a 6,037-square-foot lot. Its assessed value is $549,000.
The property’s strongest asset is its value relative to the wider market. Citywide, it ranks in the top 13% by assessed value, while its living area sits in the top 23%—and the citywide average home is significantly older (1966). That means you’re getting a newer, larger-than-average home in a stable suburban neighbourhood, without the premium you might expect for that combination. On its own street and in Whyte Ridge, the numbers are more middle-of-the-pack: the living area is roughly average for the area, and the lot size is slightly above average on the street but typical for the neighbourhood.
The appeal here is less about standout features and more about consistency. Nothing about the property is extreme—it’s not the biggest lot or the newest build on the block—but it holds its own across all four metrics: size, age, land, and value. That suggests a solid, unflashy home that was likely well-maintained and hasn’t been overpriced relative to its peers.
This would suit a buyer who values predictability over uniqueness. Families looking for a turnkey home in a well-established suburban area, without the renovation headaches of an older property, will find it practical. It’s also a strong candidate for someone comparing across Winnipeg broadly, rather than fixating on a single street—because citywide, it outperforms most homes in its price bracket.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the assessed value compare to the neighbourhood average?
The assessed value of $549,000 is above the Whyte Ridge average of $529,600 (top 26% in the neighbourhood). It’s also well above the citywide average for comparable homes, which sits at $390,100. So while it’s not the most expensive house on Vineland Crescent, it is clearly positioned above typical homes in both the area and the city.
2. Is the living space actually bigger than most homes in Winnipeg?
Yes. At 1,662 square feet, it ranks in the top 23% citywide among comparable properties, where the average is 1,342 square feet. Within Whyte Ridge and on its own street, the living area is essentially average—so the “above average” status is driven by citywide comparisons, not local ones.
3. How new is the construction relative to other homes in the area?
Built in 1998, it’s newer than the neighbourhood average of 1994 and significantly newer than the citywide average of 1966. On its own street, the average year built is also 1998, so it’s right in line with immediate neighbours. If you’re looking for a home that avoids major structural updates, this is a reasonable bet.
4. Is the lot size generous or tight?
The lot is 6,037 square feet. That’s above average for Vineland Crescent (5,605 sqft) and larger than about 27% of homes on the street. However, it’s slightly below the Whyte Ridge average of 6,175 sqft and well below the citywide average of 6,570 sqft for comparable homes. So it’s a good-sized lot by street standards, but not unusually large for the broader neighbourhood or city.
5. What does the “rank” data actually mean for a buyer?
The rankings compare this home to other single-detached properties within the same scope (street, neighbourhood, city). A higher rank means the home outperforms more of its peers. For example, the top 13% citywide assessed value means this home is valued higher than 87% of comparable homes across Winnipeg. The bar fills show roughly how many peers you’re beating—helpful for gauging whether a home is a relative bargain or already priced at the top of its range.
