Property Overview
This one-storey home at 910 Lagimodiere Boulevard in Holden offers a distinct value proposition centered on land and location. Built in 1985, it is a newer construction compared to most in the immediate area. Its primary standout feature is the exceptionally large lot of over 14,000 sqft, which ranks in the top 1-2% locally and citywide. This provides rare potential for expansion, gardening, or outdoor activities. The living space (1,280 sqft) is comfortably above average for the neighbourhood. The home’s assessed value is modest and in line with area norms, though it sits below the Winnipeg city average, reflecting Holden’s market.
The appeal here is straightforward: space and opportunity. It suits a buyer looking for a solid, no-frills home where the true asset is the land itself—ideal for those wanting room to breathe, build a garage, or create an extensive outdoor living area without a premium suburban price tag. It would also fit a practical buyer who values a home newer than most surrounding properties, potentially meaning fewer immediate major repairs. The detached garage adds functional value. It’s less suited for those seeking a turn-key, modern interior or an urban lifestyle, as the appeal is rooted in its generous footprint and potential rather than high-end finishes.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the large lot size typical for Holden?
No, it is exceptional. This property’s lot is in the top 1% for the area, where the average is closer to 5,000 sqft. This makes it a rare find in the neighbourhood.
2. How does the home’s age compare to others nearby?
Built in 1985, it is significantly newer than the average home on its street and in Holden, which mostly date from the 1950s. This could suggest more modern construction standards and systems.
3. Why is the assessed value so much lower than the Winnipeg city average?
This reflects the local market in Holden, where property values are generally lower than the citywide median. The assessment is in line with similar homes in the immediate area.
4. What are the implications of the home being “one-storey” with no basement?
This means all living space is on a single level, which can be ideal for accessibility or avoiding stairs. However, it also limits storage and potential for below-ground expansion; the large lot may offset this by allowing for above-ground additions.
