Property Overview
This is a truly exceptional property defined by its significant scale and premier standing. The nearly 6,000 sqft residence is situated on a vast one-acre lot (over 44,000 sqft), offering a rare combination of expansive living space and generous grounds within the city. Built in 2010, it provides modern construction and systems within a well-established neighborhood.
Its appeal lies in its absolute top-tier ranking. The home's living area and tax-assessed value each place in the top 1% of its street, community, and the entire city of Winnipeg. The land size is similarly elite, ranking in the top 1% citywide. This isn't just a large home; it's a statistical standout in multiple key categories.
This property would suit buyers for whom space, privacy, and modern luxury are non-negotiable. It is ideal for a large or multi-generational family, or for those who require dedicated spaces for work, entertainment, or hobbies within the home. The buyer is likely one who values both the prestige of a top-ranked address and the practical benefits of a contemporary build on a private, sizable parcel of land.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "top 1%" ranking actually mean for a buyer?
Beyond prestige, it quantifies rarity. You are not just buying a big house, but one of the very largest and most highly valued properties in Winnipeg by official metrics. This often correlates with long-term stability and a distinct position in the market.
2. The home was built in 2010. How does that compare to the neighborhood?
The neighborhood average build year is around 1966. This means you benefit from modern building codes, energy efficiency, and contemporary layouts without the potential issues of a century-old home, while still enjoying a mature, established setting.
3. With such a high tax assessment, what should be expected for annual property taxes?
While exact taxes depend on the final mill rate, the assessed value of $2.51M is a direct input. Prospective buyers should budget for a significant annual tax bill commensurate with this elite valuation, which is over five times the street average.
4. Is all 44,250 sqft of the land usable?
The total area is substantial, but the usable space depends on the property's grading, landscaping, and any municipal easements. The lot offers exceptional potential for gardens, recreation, or future additions, subject to local zoning.
5. How does living in a home of this size impact utility and maintenance costs?
Heating, cooling, and maintaining nearly 6,000 sqft of finished space requires a corresponding budget. However, the 2010 build year suggests systems are relatively modern and potentially more efficient than those in a similarly sized older estate, which can mitigate some operational costs.
