Property Overview: 93 Queen's Park Crescent, Linden Woods
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home presents a compelling value proposition within Winnipeg's desirable Linden Woods neighbourhood. Built in 1987, it is a well-established property on a generous 8,119 sqft lot. With 2,316 sqft of living space, it offers ample room for a family. The core appeal lies in its positional value: while the home itself is modest relative to its immediate, upscale crescent (ranking in the lower tier for size and assessed value on the street), it provides access to a premier area at a comparatively accessible point. Its city-wide rankings tell the true story—it sits in the top 5% for living area and top 4% for assessed value compared to all Winnipeg homes, highlighting its substantial footprint and official valuation in a broader context.
This property would suit value-conscious buyers seeking space and location over a turn-key or luxury finish. It’s ideal for those who want a large lot in a top neighbourhood and are willing to potentially update a late-80s build. It also represents a strategic entry point into a crescent where most homes are larger and more valuable, offering the potential for future equity growth through renovations.
