Property Summary: 22 Fleury Place
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This 1,189 sqft home built in 1956 sits on a 4,999 sqft lot in Winnipeg's Windsor Park neighbourhood. Its standout feature is the living space—among the largest on Fleury Place (ranked #1 out of 22 homes). The lot, however, is the smallest on the street, and the assessed value of $296k sits below both the neighbourhood and city averages.
Where the property appeals is in its balance of interior space versus outdoor footprint. Buyers who prioritize a generous floor plan over yard size will find value here. The home is older than much of the surrounding area but newer than many citywide comparables, suggesting solid bones in a well-established block. The below-average assessment also hints at potential value relative to similar homes nearby, though that may partly reflect the smaller lot.
This property suits buyers who:
- Want a larger-than-average living area without paying a premium for land they don't need.
- Are comfortable with a street that's more built-out and mature, where lots are consistently modest in size.
- Prefer a home that's priced below neighbourhood benchmarks, leaving room for gradual equity growth or renovation upside.
Five Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why is the assessed value so much lower than the neighbourhood average when the living area is above average?
The assessment reflects a combination of factors, not just square footage. Lot size plays a significant role—this property's lot is nearly 1,000 sqft smaller than the Windsor Park average. Age and condition also factor in, though the specific condition isn't detailed here. A smaller lot in a neighbourhood where larger lots are the norm will pull the assessed value down, even if the house itself is roomier inside.
2. How does the lot size compare to other homes on the street?
It's the smallest on Fleury Place—ranked last out of 22 homes. The street average is 5,230 sqft, so this lot is about 230 sqft smaller than typical for the street. That's roughly the size of a single-car garage pad. If outdoor space is a priority, this may feel tight compared to neighbours.
3. Is the house old enough to need major updates?
Built in 1956, it's older than the Windsor Park average (1961) but newer than many homes on its own street, where most were built around the same vintage (1956 average). At nearly 70 years old, major systems like plumbing, electrical, and roofing may have been updated or may be due depending on the previous owner. A home inspection is recommended to clarify what's been replaced and what hasn't.
4. How does this property compare to similar homes citywide?
Citywide, it's near the middle of the pack for living area (top 51%) and lot size (top 55%), but well below average for assessed value (top 72%). That suggests you're getting a house with competitive interior space and a typical urban lot, but at a price point that's below the median for comparable homes across Winnipeg. The age is also close to citywide averages, making it a fairly standard offering when viewed at the city level.
5. What's the neighbourhood like in terms of property diversity?
Windsor Park shows a mix. The home's street ranking for lot size is at the very bottom, but its living area ranking is at the top—so properties on the same block vary significantly in how they balance indoor and outdoor space. The assessment range is also wide, with this home near the low end. That means neighbours may have very different property profiles, which can affect resale value and neighbourhood character depending on which direction the area trends.
