Property Overview
This two-storey home at 45 Sand Lily Drive in Dakota Crossing presents a practical and spacious family option. Its key appeal lies in offering above-average space both inside and out, within a well-established neighbourhood. With 1,527 sqft of living space, it ranks in the top 16% for size on its own street and offers a generous 6,793 sqft lot, placing it in the top 20% locally for land area. The home features a renovated basement and an attached garage. Built in 1991, it is notably newer than most homes on Sand Lily Drive. The assessed value is consistent with the local area.
This property would suit buyers looking for a move-in ready family home with ample room for children, pets, or gardening, without venturing into brand-new, premium-priced subdivisions. It’s a solid choice for those who value established communities with mature landscaping and predictable property metrics, rather than seeking a cutting-edge renovation project or the smallest lot on the block.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the home’s size compare to others in Winnipeg?
City-wide, the living area is above average, ranking in the top 29% of homes. This means it offers more interior space than roughly 7 out of 10 homes in the city.
Is the lot size a significant feature?
Yes. The lot is over 6,700 sqft, which is larger than average for both the immediate street and the wider Dakota Crossing area. This provides notable outdoor space compared to many newer developments.
What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. A viewing is essential to see the finish quality, check for proper permits, and understand the layout—whether it's a recreational space, additional bedrooms, or a separate suite.
The home sold in 2020 for $360k. How does that relate to its current assessed value?
The 2020 sale price provides historical context, but the current assessed value for taxation purposes is approximately $49,100k. Market value is determined by current conditions, recent comparable sales, and the home's present state.
Are there any potential concerns with a 1991-built home?
While newer than many Winnipeg homes, a 33-year-old house will have aging components. Prospective buyers should pay special attention to the roof, windows, HVAC system, and plumbing during an inspection, as these may be nearing or past their typical lifespans.
