Property Summary: 11 Lynx Street
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This 2022-built home offers 1,327 sq ft of living space on a 2,338 sq ft lot. Its standout feature is the construction year—newer than 99% of homes citywide, while the area’s average build date is 1966. The property’s assessed value sits at $364,000, slightly below the city average of $390,000 but in line with others on the same street.
The appeal lies in its relative newness within an older, established neighbourhood. Most nearby homes were built decades earlier, meaning this property offers modern construction standards, energy efficiency, and a lower-maintenance start. The lot size, while modest by city and community standards, is the second-largest on Lynx Street—a useful detail for anyone wanting a bit more outdoor space without moving to a larger property.
This would suit a buyer who values a newer home in a central Winnipeg location, likely first-time homeowners or downsizers who want something move-in ready. It’s less ideal for someone seeking a large yard or a home in a neighbourhood of similarly new builds. The property offers a practical middle ground: new construction in a well-established area, not a brand-new subdivision.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the property’s size compare to other homes nearby?
The living area is close to the average for Lynx Street and the city overall, but smaller than the typical home in the West Kildonan Industrial community, where the average is about 1,591 sq ft. The lot is larger than most on the street but significantly smaller than the community and city averages.
2. Is the assessed value of $364,000 reasonable for this home?
It’s in line with other homes on Lynx Street, where the average is $363,000. Compared to the broader community ($443,000 average) and the city ($390,000 average), it’s priced below the norm, reflecting the smaller living area and lot size relative to those wider areas.
3. Why is the build year listed as “below average” on its own street?
Most homes on Lynx Street were built in 2023, making this one slightly older in that very specific context. Citywide and within the community, however, the home is much newer than the vast majority. The street-level ranking is a narrow comparison, not a reflection of the home’s overall age.
4. How does the lot size affect usability?
At 2,338 sq ft, it’s a compact lot by Winnipeg standards. While it’s the second-largest on the street, it’s still smaller than most properties in the community and city. It offers room for a small yard or garden but won’t suit someone wanting a large outdoor area.
5. What does “open the surrounding map analysis” offer?
That tool lets you compare this property side-by-side with nearby single-family homes on a map, filtering by build year, living area, assessed value, and lot size. It’s useful for seeing how this home stacks up visually against its immediate neighbours, not just the broader averages.
