46 Astoria Point – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This 1,842 sqft home, built in 1989, sits on a 6,888 sqft lot in the Whyte Ridge neighbourhood of Winnipeg. Its main appeal is consistency: it ranks well above average at the citywide level across all four key metrics—living area, assessed value, year built, and land size—while being roughly average or slightly above within its immediate street and neighbourhood. The assessed value of $526,000 aligns closely with the street and area averages, meaning you’re not paying a significant premium for the location, but the home offers more interior and lot space than most comparable properties citywide. The year built ranks first on the street (tied with others from 1989), which makes it one of the older homes on Astoria Point but still newer than the citywide average of 1966. This combination of solid size, a well-established neighbourhood, and a value that doesn’t stray far from local benchmarks would suit buyers looking for a spacious, unflashy family home in a stable area—particularly those who prioritize square footage and lot size over a recently renovated or ultra-modern interior.

Five Possible FAQs

1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes nearby, and what does that mean for property taxes?
The assessed value of $526,000 is nearly identical to the street average of $526,300 and slightly below the neighbourhood average of $529,600. This means property taxes should be in line with other homes in Whyte Ridge, not unusually high or low for this price range.

2. The home was built in 1989—what should I look for in terms of maintenance or updates?
Being 35 years old, it falls into a period when many homes need major system replacements. Expect to check the roof, furnace, central air, windows, and foundation. The fact that it ranks first on the street for year built suggests it’s among the older homes there, so neighbours might have already done upgrades that could give you a sense of what’s coming.

3. The lot is 6,888 sqft—how does that compare to newer subdivisions?
It’s slightly above the neighbourhood average (6,175 sqft) and citywide average (6,570 sqft), but below many newer subdivisions where lots have shrunk. This size gives decent yard space without being oversized for maintenance.

4. Why does the home rank lower on its street than citywide for living area and land?
The street itself (Astoria Point) has larger-than-average homes and lots compared to the rest of Winnipeg, so being in the middle of the pack locally still puts you well ahead of most properties across the city. This is common in established neighbourhoods where there’s less variation.

5. Is the neighbourhood walkable or family-friendly?
Whyte Ridge is a suburban area with a mix of older and newer homes, parks, and schools. It’s not a walkable core neighbourhood, but it’s known for being quiet and family-oriented, with most errands requiring a car. The larger-than-average lot here is typical of the area and supports outdoor space for kids or gardening.
