207 Vineland Crescent – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 2,104-square-foot home built in 1999 on a 5,244-square-foot lot in Whyte Ridge. The standout feature is its living space. On Vineland Crescent, it ranks in the top 5% for size, and city-wide it falls in the top 8% among comparable homes—meaning it offers well above average square footage for Winnipeg. The assessed value of $551,000 follows a similar pattern, ranking in the top 13% city-wide, which reflects both the home’s size and its position in a neighbourhood where values are generally above the city median. The land area is more typical for the street and area, ranking near the middle.
The appeal here is straightforward but worth noting: you get a home that is noticeably larger than most in its immediate street context, with a relatively recent build year (top 18% city-wide), without a correspondingly large lot that might demand extra upkeep. That balance—ample interior space on a manageable yard—tends to suit buyers who want room to spread out without committing to significant outdoor maintenance or a sprawling property. It also fits someone looking for a home that already ranks well among its peers, which can be a practical consideration for resale down the line.
The less obvious angle: being on a street where the average home is slightly smaller (1,669 sqft) means 207 Vineland Crescent may stand out architecturally or in terms of layout compared to its neighbours. That can be a positive if you prefer a home that feels distinct, but it’s worth considering how that might affect curb appeal uniformity or future comparisons when selling.
This property would suit a family or couple who prioritises interior living space and a newer build over a large lot. It also appeals to buyers who value strong comparative data—metrics that suggest the home is above average on multiple fronts relative to the street, neighbourhood, and city.
Five Possible FAQs
1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes in Whyte Ridge?
The assessed value of $551,000 is above the neighbourhood average of $529,600, ranking in the top 25%. City-wide, it sits in the top 13%, which is notably high because the average assessed value across Winnipeg for comparable homes is $390,100.
2. Is the land area smaller than typical for the area?
It’s around average. On Vineland Crescent, the average land area is 5,605 sqft, and this property has 5,244 sqft. In the broader Whyte Ridge area, the average is 6,175 sqft, so it’s below that, but city-wide it’s close to the median (top 49%). It’s not undersized for the street, but it is tighter than the neighbourhood norm.
3. How recent is the construction, and does that matter locally?
Built in 1999, it ranks in the top 13% on its street and top 18% city-wide. The neighbourhood average year built is 1994, so this home is slightly newer than most in Whyte Ridge. Compared to the Winnipeg average of 1966, it is significantly newer, which can mean fewer major system replacements (roof, furnace, etc.) in the near term.
4. What does “top 5% on the street” actually mean for daily living?
It means that among the 111 homes compared on Vineland Crescent, only about five are larger. In practice, that likely translates to more generous room sizes, additional storage, or a layout that feels open. It also means the home may feel spacious relative to immediate neighbours, which can be a plus for privacy or entertaining.
5. How were the rankings and averages calculated?
The data compares this property against a pool of “comparable homes” within each scope (street, neighbourhood, city). Rankings are based on specific metrics: larger living area and land area rank higher, newer construction ranks higher, and higher assessed value ranks higher. The “Avg” shown is a rough median for that group, not a precise mean. The bars indicate what share of peers this property outperforms.
