Property Overview
8 Notley Drive is a modern, two-storey home in Winnipeg's Grassie neighbourhood. Built in 2014, it offers 1,511 sqft of living space on a notably large, nearly 10,000 sqft lot, with an attached garage and a renovated basement. Its assessed value places it above average for both the neighbourhood and the city.
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home’s primary appeal lies in its balance of modern construction and generous outdoor space. As one of the newest homes on its street and in Grassie, it likely offers contemporary building standards and less immediate need for major updates. The renovated basement adds functional living space. While the house itself is slightly below the average size for its immediate street, it sits on a lot that is significantly larger than most in the area, offering rare potential for gardening, expansion, or simply more private outdoor living.
It would suit buyers looking for a relatively modern home who prioritize a large yard over having the largest floor plan on the block. It’s also a strong fit for those seeking a home in good original condition within a mature neighbourhood, appealing to both young families and downsizers wanting single-level living in a two-storey layout, with main-floor laundry and living areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home’s size compare to others?
While the living area is slightly smaller than the average on Notley Drive, it is above the city-wide average. The property compensates significantly with a lot size that ranks in the top 10% on its street.
2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or layout. This would be a key detail to clarify with the seller or listing agent.
3. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the selling price?
The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes. While it places the home above average for the area, the final sale price is determined by the market. The provided sold price history from late 2021 can offer a historical benchmark.
4. What are the benefits of a 2014 build in an older neighbourhood?
A newer home like this typically means more modern insulation, wiring, windows, and major systems (like HVAC), which can offer energy efficiency and lower near-term maintenance costs compared to much older homes in the area.
5. How can I find out the exact past sold prices?
The exact sold prices are not publicly displayed. As noted on the detail page, you can request this information by email from the service, which provides the data manually without using your email for marketing.
