6 Hallmark Point, Whyte Ridge
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 1,869 sqft home, built in 1986, sits on a notably large 11,047 sqft lot in Whyte Ridge. Its standout feature is the land: the lot ranks in the top 5% citywide across Winnipeg and in the top 3% within the neighborhood, where the average lot is just over 6,100 sqft. The home itself is above average in size compared to nearby properties and the city median, though it’s a less dramatic advantage than the yard.
The assessed value sits at $513,000, slightly above the street average but right around the neighborhood median. Year built is a mixed picture: the house is among the newest on its street, but Whyte Ridge has seen a lot of construction since the late 1980s, so it’s older than most surrounding homes. That could appeal to buyers who want a more established build with mature landscaping rather than a newer or infill lot.
Best suited for: Buyers who prioritize outdoor space—especially a generous, private yard—over a brand-new interior. It’s a strong fit for families who garden, want room for kids to play, or plan to expand the footprint later. The location on a quiet street with above-average square footage also works well for someone who values a solid, well-proportioned home in a central Winnipeg suburb without paying for the newest finishes.
FAQs
1. How does the lot size compare to typical Winnipeg properties?
The 11,047 sqft lot is in the top 5% citywide—about 68% larger than the Winnipeg median of 6,570 sqft. Even within Whyte Ridge, it’s nearly double the average lot size for the neighborhood. If outdoor space is a priority, this property offers significantly more than most homes in the city.
2. Why is the assessed value ($513K) below the neighborhood average ($529.6K)?
The neighborhood average includes newer, larger homes built in the 1990s and 2000s, which tend to have higher assessments. This 1986 home sits on an exceptionally large lot, but the house itself is older and slightly smaller than some of the newer builds in Whyte Ridge, pulling the assessed value a bit lower. It’s a case where the land is the primary asset.
3. Is the house old enough to need major updates?
Built in 1986, it’s approaching 40 years old. That timeline often means the roof, furnace, and windows may have been replaced once or are due for attention. However, being older than most homes in the neighborhood means many of these systems may have already been updated by previous owners—worth confirming. The yard and landscaping are likely well-established.
4. How does the ranking system work, and what do the colors mean?
Rankings compare this property to similar homes within three levels: street, neighborhood, and citywide. A higher rank (lower percentage) means it outperforms more peers. Fill color reflects performance tier: red for elite (top 10%), blue for above average, amber for around average, and gray for below average. For land area, larger = better rank; for year built, newer = better.
5. Why does the neighborhood rank for year built show top 94%?
That means the property ranks in the bottom 6% for newness within Whyte Ridge—most homes there were built in the 1990s or later. While the house is newer than many citywide (top 27%), it’s old for this neighborhood. For buyers, this could be a positive if you prefer mature trees and an established character over the uniform look of newer subdivisions.
