Property Overview
This 1,056 sqft bungalow at 411 Keenleyside Street in Winnipeg's Munroe East neighbourhood presents a specific and practical value proposition. Built in 1970, it is notably newer than most homes on its street and in the wider area. The living space is efficient and compares favourably in size to nearby homes, though the lot itself is more compact than area averages. Its assessed value positions it as a more accessible entry point within the broader city and neighbourhood markets.
The primary appeal lies in its modern construction relative to its surroundings, offering a potentially updated mechanical and structural foundation compared to older, mid-century homes. It suits first-time buyers or practical downsizers seeking a manageable, low-maintenance property without the premium often attached to newer builds in other districts. It’s a home for those who prioritize the condition and efficiency of the living space over a large yard, and who see value in a asset that stands out for its age on a street of older properties.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the 1970 build date affect this home?
Being built in 1970 makes this home significantly newer than most on its street (ranking in the top 2%). This often means updates to fundamental building codes, materials, and systems like wiring and plumbing, which can reduce immediate renovation needs compared to a home built in the 1950s or earlier.
2. The lot size is noted as below average. How impactful is this?
The lot is approximately 3,150 sqft, which is smaller than typical lots in Munroe East. This translates to less exterior maintenance and yard work, which can be a benefit for some. It may limit options for large additions or extensive landscaping, but provides adequate private outdoor space.
3. What does the assessed value tell me about this property?
With an assessed value notably below the city-wide average for homes, it suggests this property is positioned in a more affordable segment of the market. This can indicate a lower property tax burden and a potentially attractive entry price, though the final sale price is determined by the market.
4. The home last sold between 2016-2025. Can I find out the exact price?
The exact sold price is not publicly displayed in the listing history. The listing service offers to provide this specific information manually via email upon request, as they have compiled more precise data from that period.
5. Who would this home not be suitable for?
This property may not suit buyers looking for a large, expansive yard for gardening or recreation, or those seeking a home significantly larger than 1,056 sqft. It also may not align with buyers prioritizing investment in a property with a lot size that is average or above for the area.
