14 Browning Boulevard – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1,186 sqft home built in 1964, on a 5,678 sqft lot. Its main strength is its assessed value relative to the immediate street: it ranks in the top 17% on Browning Boulevard, well above the street average of $359,100. The year built is also slightly newer than the street average (1964 vs. 1963). However, the property sits below the street average for land area (ranking 67th out of 87) and is roughly average for living space both on the street and citywide. At the neighbourhood level (Westwood) and citywide (Winnipeg), the home is consistently “around average” across all metrics.
The appeal here is practical rather than showy. You get a moderately sized home on a tighter lot, but the assessed value suggests the street itself commands a premium, likely due to location, street character, or nearby amenities. This property would suit a buyer who prioritizes being on a higher-value street over having extra land or square footage—someone who sees the address as the asset, not the footprint. It’s a sensible fit for a first-time buyer or a small family looking for a solid entry point in a well-ranked street without overpaying for a large yard or extra rooms they may not need.
Five Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the living area compare to other homes in Westwood?
It’s slightly below the neighbourhood average. The home is ranked 1,611 out of 2,523 properties in Westwood (top 64%), with the neighbourhood average at 1,372 sqft. So you’re getting about 186 sqft less than typical for the area.
2. Is the lot size a concern for this property?
It could be, depending on your plans. The land area ranks 67th out of 87 homes on the street (top 77%), meaning most neighbours have more yard. If you want a large garden or room for additions, this might feel tight. If low-maintenance outdoor space is fine, it’s not a problem.
3. Why is the assessed value higher than the street average despite smaller land and living area?
Assessed value isn’t just about size—it reflects overall market conditions, including location, street desirability, and the home’s condition. Being ranked 15th on the street suggests the property itself, the street’s character, or recent sales in the area are pushing its value up beyond what square footage alone would predict.
4. How does the home’s age compare to similar homes in Winnipeg?
It’s right in line. Citywide, the average year built for comparable homes is 1966, and this one was built in 1964. On the street, it’s actually above average (top 25%), meaning several nearby homes are older.
5. Can I view a detailed map comparing this home to nearby properties?
Yes. There is a neighbourhood analysis page that maps this property next to nearby houses, allowing you to compare year built, living area, assessed value, and lot size side by side. You can access it via the “Open neighbourhood map analysis” link on the property detail page.
