39 Browning Boulevard – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1966 bungalow with 1,356 square feet of living space on a 5,723-square-foot lot, located in Winnipeg’s Westwood neighbourhood. The assessed value is $376,000.
Where it stands out is on its own street. Among the 87 homes on Browning Boulevard, this property ranks in the top quartile for both living area (24th) and assessed value (23rd). It’s one of the newer homes on the block too—ranked 5th out of 87, meaning most neighbouring houses were built earlier. The lot is slightly smaller than the street average but still sits within a normal range.
The appeal here is less about standout size or value citywide and more about relative positioning within a specific street. The living area and assessed value are both around average for Westwood and Winnipeg as a whole, but on Browning Boulevard, this home offers more space and higher value than most of its immediate neighbours.
This property would suit a buyer who wants a solid, mid-century home in an established neighbourhood, and who values being on a street where their home compares favourably to others nearby—whether for resale potential or personal preference. It's less suited to someone looking for a large lot or a home that stands out across the city.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home compare to others on Browning Boulevard?
It ranks in the top 26% for assessed value and top 28% for living area. It's also one of the newer homes on the street—built in 1966, while the street average is 1963. The lot is slightly below average for the street, ranking in the bottom third.
2. Is the assessed value accurate, and does it reflect market price?
The assessed value of $376,000 is based on municipal valuation, which may differ from current market price. Assessed value is used for property tax calculation, not as a listing or sale price. It's best used as a comparative benchmark, not a price target.
3. How does the lot size compare to typical Winnipeg lots?
At 5,723 square feet, the lot is smaller than the citywide average of 6,570 square feet for comparable homes. It ranks in the top 38% citywide, meaning it's still in the larger half of Winnipeg lots—just not notably large for Westwood or Browning Boulevard.
4. What does the "rank by year, newer = better rank" mean?
It means homes built more recently are ranked higher. A rank of 5 out of 87 on the street (top 6%) indicates this home is newer than 94% of the homes on Browning Boulevard. Newer construction can mean fewer immediate maintenance concerns, though 1966 is still a mid-century build.
5. Should I look at the street, neighbourhood, or citywide rankings most closely?
The street-level rankings are the most telling here because that's where this property stands out. Neighbourhood and citywide figures are useful for context, but on Browning Boulevard, this home is clearly above average—while across Westwood or Winnipeg, it blends in. For a buyer focused on relative value within a specific area, the street data is the most relevant.
