Property Summary: 108 Atlas Crescent
1. Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 2019-built home with 2,014 square feet of living space on a 4,722-square-foot lot. Its standout quality is how it balances size and recency against the wider market. While the house is only slightly newer than the average home on its own street (Atlas Crescent), it is substantially newer than the typical home across the entire city of Winnipeg—ranking in the top 4% citywide for build year. Similarly, its living area is well above the city average (top 11%), and its assessed value reflects that premium, also sitting in the top 11% citywide.
The lot is slightly smaller than the street average but still generous compared to the broader community (top 23%). That means the house itself is notably larger than many nearby homes, with a modern build that stands out in a city where the average home dates to 1966.
The appeal here is for a buyer who wants a newer, spacious home without being in a brand-new subdivision—someone who values being in an established street (Atlas Crescent) with a mix of older and newer homes, but doesn't want to compromise on modern construction or interior space. It would suit a family looking for move-in-ready living area above 2,000 sqft, or someone who prioritizes citywide comparables over hyper-local averages. It’s less suited for buyers who want maximum land or a lot that outpaces the neighbours.
2. Five Possible FAQs
Q: How does this home compare to others in the immediate neighbourhood?
A: On Atlas Crescent, it sits in the top 28% for living area and top 20% for assessed value. The street average for living space is 1,800 sqft, so this home is about 200 sqft larger than most on the street. The lot is on the smaller side for the street (top 65%), but still above the wider community average.
Q: Is the property overpriced relative to its neighbours?
A: The assessed value aligns closely with its size and age advantages. It ranks in the top 20% on the street and top 11% citywide—so it's priced as a premium home, but the numbers suggest the premium reflects actual market position rather than an arbitrary markup.
Q: How old is the home, really?
A: Built in 2019. That's roughly average for Atlas Crescent, but significant when you look citywide: it's newer than 96% of homes in Winnipeg. You're getting a nearly-new build in an area where most homes are much older.
Q: Is the land big enough for a family with kids or a garden?
A: The lot is 4,722 sqft. That's about 10% smaller than the average on the street, but it's still larger than 77% of lots in the surrounding community (West Kildonan Industrial). It's a functional urban lot—room for a yard and some outdoor space—but it won't offer the sprawling land you'd find in newer subdivisions farther out.
Q: What might be a less obvious downside?
A: The home is newer than most in the city, but the street itself has a mix of older homes. That means the character and condition of neighbouring properties may vary. Also, being in the top 11% for assessed value citywide means property taxes are proportionally higher than the average Winnipeg home—something to factor into monthly costs.
