1835 Loudoun Road – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This property stands out across every major metric, not just in its neighbourhood but citywide. The home measures 4,547 square feet—nearly double the average on its own street and more than triple the Winnipeg average. It sits on 131,840 square feet of land, placing it in the top 1% citywide, while most Winnipeg properties sit on roughly 6,570 square feet. The assessed value of $2.33 million reflects this rarity, ranking in the top 1% across the city and top 4% within Wilkes South. Built in 2012, it is newer than roughly 90% of homes in Winnipeg.
The appeal here is size and scarcity. Buyers aren't just getting a large house; they're getting a property where the land itself is the primary asset—nearly three acres within city limits. That combination is uncommon in Winnipeg, especially in a neighbourhood like Wilkes South, which tends to have above-average lot sizes but nothing on this scale. The home itself is spacious and relatively modern, but the real draw is the privacy, potential for subdivision or development (subject to zoning), and the buffer from neighbours that a three-acre lot provides.
This property would suit a buyer who values space over proximity to downtown or walkable amenities. Likely candidates include families needing room for multiple generations, equestrian or hobby farm enthusiasts, someone looking to build or add secondary structures, or investors eyeing long-term land appreciation. It is less suited to buyers wanting a low-maintenance yard or a compact, move-in-ready home in a dense urban setting.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size compare to other properties in Wilkes South?
It ranks 65th out of 246 properties in the neighbourhood, putting it in the top 26%. While not the largest in the area, the lot is significantly above the neighbourhood average of 136,915 square feet and far exceeds citywide norms.
2. Is the assessed value of $2.33 million aligned with recent sale prices?
Assessed value and market value are not always the same. This figure is used for property tax purposes. A comparative market analysis or recent sales data for similar properties in Wilkes South would give a clearer picture of current market value.
3. What zoning applies to the property, and does it allow for subdivision?
The summary does not include zoning details. Buyers should verify with the City of Winnipeg's zoning department, as large parcels in established neighbourhoods may have restrictions on subdivision or additional development.
4. How much does the year built (2012) matter compared to older homes in the area?
It is newer than 90% of Winnipeg homes, meaning major systems (roof, mechanicals, windows) are likely in good condition. That said, a 2012 build is not brand-new—buyers should still budget for inspections and potential updates to finishes or appliances.
5. Are there comparable properties nearby with similar living area and land size?
On its own street, it ranks 5th out of 70 for living area, suggesting a few neighbours have comparable home sizes. However, the combination of 4,500+ square feet of living space on three acres is rare. The neighbourhood analysis map, accessible from the property page, can show nearby homes and help with direct comparisons.
