Property Overview: 195 Shoreline Drive, Linden Woods
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This well-situated home in the established Linden Woods neighbourhood presents a compelling blend of space, location, and value. Built in 1997, it is notably newer than most homes citywide and is above average for its immediate street. The 2,234 sqft living area provides ample space, ranking well above the Winnipeg average. Its strong citywide appeal is highlighted by an elite-tier assessed value, placing it in the top 3% of all Winnipeg properties, suggesting a solid foundation of perceived market value.
The appeal lies in its position within a desirable, mature neighbourhood, offering more modern construction than typical for the city on a good-sized 7,032 sqft lot. It suits buyers looking for a spacious family home in a prime area without the premium of a brand-new build. A thoughtful perspective is its "middle-ground" positioning on its own street: while the lot size is smaller than most neighbours', the home itself is newer and has a higher assessed value per square foot than many in the wider area, indicating potential for those who prioritize the home's condition and internal space over the largest possible yard. It would particularly suit value-conscious move-up buyers or families seeking established community amenities and a home that stands out favourably in broader city comparisons.
