6 Fleury Place – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This 1956 bungalow in Windsor Park offers 1,189 sq. ft. of living space on a 5,033 sq. ft. lot. Its assessed value is $289,000.
The property’s standout feature is its living area. On Fleury Place, it ranks in the top 5% for size—well above the street average of 1,073 sq. ft. Within Windsor Park, it sits in the top 19%, and citywide, it lands near the middle. This means the home provides more interior space than most of its immediate neighbours, even though lot sizes on the street and in the area tend to be slightly larger elsewhere.
The assessed value tells a different story. At $289,000, it falls below the street average ($318,800), the neighbourhood average ($354,200), and the citywide average ($390,100). This is partly because the house is older than many nearby homes. Built in 1956, it’s one of the older properties on the street (top 18%), but within Windsor Park and Winnipeg as a whole, it’s around average for its era.
Who this suits: Buyers who want a solid, well-sized interior without paying a premium for a newer build or a larger lot. It’s a practical fit for someone who values square footage over modern finishes or who’s comfortable taking on a project. The below-average assessment also suggests potential for equity growth if the home is updated, or lower property taxes relative to similarly sized homes in the area. It may be less appealing to buyers seeking a move-in-ready home with a big yard or a contemporary floor plan.
Five Possible FAQs
1. Why is the assessed value so much lower than the city average when the living area is above average?
Assessed value depends on more than square footage. This home is older than the citywide average (1956 vs. 1966), and its lot is smaller than the typical Winnipeg lot for comparable homes. Age and land size are major factors in valuation, so a smaller, older lot with an older house drags the value down even if the interior is roomy.
2. How does the lot size compare to other homes on the street?
The lot is 5,033 sq. ft., which is slightly below the street average of 5,230 sq. ft. It ranks 8th out of 22 homes, so it’s in the middle of the pack—not notably small, but not generous either. Within Windsor Park, lots are generally larger (average 6,030 sq. ft.), so this is one of the tighter properties in the neighbourhood.
3. Is this a fixer-upper?
Not necessarily, but the age suggests that systems like plumbing, electrical, and insulation may need attention depending on previous updates. Since it’s older than many homes in the area, it’s worth budgeting for potential maintenance. That said, being an older home from the 1950s often means solid construction and good bones, so it could be a strong candidate for renovation rather than a full rebuild.
4. How does the year built affect the property’s standing?
On the street, it’s actually among the newer homes built in 1956 (the street average is also 1956, so it’s tied for the common era). But in Windsor Park, the average home is five years newer (1961), and citywide, the average is ten years newer (1966). So while it’s typical for the immediate street, it’s older relative to the broader market, which can affect resale value and insurance costs.
5. What does the “rank by” system mean in simple terms?
For living area and land area, a higher rank (lower number) means the property is larger than others. For year built, a higher rank means it’s newer. For assessed value, a higher rank means it’s worth more. The fill colour and bar length show roughly how many similar homes you’re ahead of in that category. So on Fleury Place, this home outperforms 95% of neighbours in living area, but trails most of them in assessed value—illustrating the trade-off between size and price.
