Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This single-family home at 62 Haverstock Crescent in Winnipeg's Linden Woods neighbourhood presents a specific value proposition. Built in 2001, its 1,674 sqft living area is notably comfortable by city-wide standards but is on the more modest side for its immediate street and established neighbourhood. This creates an interesting dynamic: you're acquiring a home in a desirable area without the typically larger footprint, which can mean less maintenance and lower utility costs. The lot size of 5,903 sqft follows a similar pattern—perfectly ample by most measures, yet smaller than many neighbouring properties.
The core appeal lies in its location and efficient scale. Linden Woods is known for its parks, trails, and community feel, offering a suburban lifestyle within the city. The home’s assessed value ranks highly city-wide, suggesting solid underlying value for the market. It would suit first-time buyers moving into a premium neighbourhood who are willing to trade square footage for location, or downsizers seeking to remain in the area with a more manageable property. It’s a pragmatic choice for those who prioritize community amenities over maximizing interior space.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home's size compare to others in Linden Woods?
The living area is below the neighbourhood average. This means the home may feel cozy compared to others on the street, but it also translates to potentially lower heating, cooling, and property tax costs.
2. What does the "Elite" city-wide ranking for Assessed Value mean?
This indicates the home's official assessed value is in the top 4% of all Winnipeg homes. While not a direct market price, it strongly suggests a high-value asset relative to the entire city, anchored by its location.
3. Is the lot size a disadvantage?
It depends on your priorities. The yard is smaller than many in Linden Woods but is still a good size by general Winnipeg standards. It offers outdoor space without the extensive upkeep of a larger lot.
4. The home sold between $550k-$600k in 2020. What is it worth today?
We provide exact historical sold prices by email upon request to ensure accuracy. For a current market valuation, a professional assessment considering today's market conditions is necessary.
5. Who would this property not suit?
Buyers needing extensive room for a growing family or those who desire a large, sprawling yard may find the proportions limiting. It's best for those who value location and community over maximum square footage.
