Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This home at 82 Riverhaven Grove is a standout property defined by its generous scale and premium positioning. Its primary appeal lies in the exceptional combination of a very large lot (over 20,800 sq ft, ranking #1 on its street) and substantial living space (2,835 sq ft), all within a modern 2005 build. The data consistently shows it ranks in the top tiers for size and value not just on its street, but across the entire Minnetonka area and Winnipeg city-wide. This creates a rare offering: a newer, spacious home with ample outdoor space in an established neighbourhood.
The property would best suit buyers who prioritize space and privacy over a brand-new build, and who understand the value of a premium lot. It’s ideal for a growing or multi-generational family needing room to spread out, or for someone who values potential for expansion, gardening, or outdoor recreation. It also appeals to the value-conscious buyer who recognizes that the assessed value, while significant, places the home among the elite properties in the city, suggesting a strong underlying investment.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the sold price compare to the assessed value?
The home sold recently for between $1.6M and $1.65M, which is above its $1.4M assessed value. This is common in active markets and indicates buyer demand exceeded the municipal valuation.
2. What does the "rank" data actually tell me?
The rankings show how this property compares to others. For example, its lot size is in the top 4% on its street and top 3% in Minnetonka, meaning very few local properties offer as much land. This contextual data is more meaningful than the raw numbers alone.
3. The home was built in 2005. What should I consider with a house of this age?
A 21-year-old home is modern enough to avoid major outdated systems but is now at an age where certain components, like the roof, major appliances, or the HVAC system, may be nearing the end of their typical lifespan and should be inspected.
4. The lot is large, but are there any restrictions on its use?
This is a key question. While the lot offers great potential, you should verify any municipal zoning bylaws or neighbourhood covenants regarding subdivisions, secondary suites, outbuilding sizes, or fence heights to understand the full scope of what you can do with the land.
5. Why is there a range for the sold price instead of the exact figure?
The exact sold price is not publicly available in Manitoba. The range provided is estimated from public data. You can request the exact price from the listing service via email, as noted on the details page.
