101 Campbell Street – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a newly built home (2023) on Wellington Crescent in Winnipeg, with 2,718 sq ft of living space on a 4,795 sq ft lot. Its standout feature is how it compares within its own street: it ranks 3rd out of 400 homes for living area (top 1%) and 1st for assessed value and construction year. That means on Campbell Street, this property is an outlier—both newer and significantly larger than the surrounding stock, where the average home was built around 1945 and measures roughly 1,299 sq ft.
The appeal lies in contrast. You get a modern build in an established, older neighbourhood without the compromises that often come with infill—small lot, tight spacing, or dated finishes. The lot is slightly below the Wellington Crescent average (4,795 vs. 9,488 sq ft), which is typical for newer builds in mature areas, but the interior space is generous. City-wide, it sits in the top 2% for living area and top 1% for assessed value, reinforcing that this is a premium property by local standards.
This home would suit buyers who want a turnkey, contemporary house in a well-regarded central neighbourhood, but who aren't looking for a large yard or acreage. It's a good fit for someone who prioritises interior square footage and modern construction over outdoor space, or for a household downsizing from a larger lot but not wanting to sacrifice room inside. It may also appeal to buyers who value statistical rarity—owning one of the newest and largest homes on a street dominated by older, smaller houses.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size compare to other homes in the area?
The lot is 4,795 sq ft, which is below the Wellington Crescent average of 9,488 sq ft and slightly below the Campbell Street average of 5,348 sq ft. It ranks in the 69th percentile on the street and 73rd in the community, meaning most nearby homes sit on larger parcels. This is common for newer infill builds, where the trade-off is a newer house on a smaller footprint.
2. Is the assessed value of $1.33M in line with recent sale prices?
The assessed value is used for property tax calculation and may not directly reflect market value. On Campbell Street, this property ranks 1st out of 400 for assessed value, with the street average at $437,000. In Wellington Crescent, it ranks 68th out of 548, where the average is $806,000. Buyers should request recent comparable sales data from their agent to understand current market pricing.
3. What makes this property unusual compared to other homes on Campbell Street?
Three things: age, size, and assessed value. The average home on the street was built in 1945; this one was built in 2023. The average living area is 1,299 sq ft; this one is 2,718 sq ft. And the average assessed value is $437,000; this one is $1.33M. It is a statistical outlier in all three categories, which means it doesn't blend in with its immediate neighbours.
4. Does the property have any disadvantages compared to newer builds in other areas?
The main trade-off is land. Many new suburban homes offer larger lots for a similar or lower price. Here, you're paying a premium for location (Wellington Crescent) and for being one of the newest homes on an established street. If yard space or privacy from neighbours is a priority, this lot may feel compact relative to newer subdivisions.
5. How should I interpret the ranking data shown on the property page?
The rankings compare this home against others within the same street, community (Wellington Crescent), and the entire city of Winnipeg. Higher rankings (smaller numbers) mean the property is larger, newer, or more valuable relative to its peers. The progress bars show what percentage of comparable homes this one outperforms. For example, a "top 1%" ranking means it beats 99% of homes in that category within that geographic range.
