37 Coral Crescent – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1959-built home in Windsor Park, Winnipeg, with 1,144 sqft of living space on a 6,597 sqft lot. Its assessed value is $378,000.
What stands out most is the lot size. While the living area is slightly below the citywide average for comparable homes, the lot ranks in the top 21% across Winnipeg and the top 19% within the neighbourhood. This suggests the property offers more outdoor space than many similar homes in the area.
The year built is noteworthy at the street level: this home is the oldest on Coral Crescent (ranked #1 out of 50 by age, top 2%). For buyers who appreciate mid-century construction—often built with mature trees, larger rooms, and simpler layouts—this can be a draw. The assessed value sits near the street and city averages but above the neighbourhood average, reflecting a solid but not inflated price point.
This property would suit:
- Buyers who want a larger lot in an established neighbourhood, for gardening, expansion, or outdoor living.
- Those who value older construction and are open to updating or personalizing.
- People looking for a home that is reasonably priced relative to its lot size, rather than paying a premium for maximized interior square footage.
It may be less ideal for buyers who prioritize a modern, move-in-ready interior or a newer build without renovation needs.
Five Possible FAQs
1. How does the living area compare to other homes nearby?
The 1,144 sqft is above average for Coral Crescent (top 8%) and the Windsor Park neighbourhood (top 24%), but below the citywide average of 1,342 sqft for comparable homes. So you’re getting a home that’s spacious for its immediate area, but slightly on the smaller side citywide.
2. Does the older construction year mean the home needs major repairs?
Not necessarily. Many homes from 1959 were solidly built, but systems (roof, furnace, windows, plumbing) may be original or nearing replacement. A home inspection is recommended to assess the actual condition. The age alone doesn’t indicate problems, but it’s worth planning for updates.
3. Why is the assessed value above the neighbourhood average but below the city average?
The neighbourhood average in Windsor Park is $354,200—so this home is above that. But citywide, comparable homes average $390,100, meaning this property is slightly below that broader benchmark. It reflects a balance between a desirable lot and modest interior size.
4. Is the lot size large enough for a garage addition or laneway suite?
At 6,597 sqft, the lot is in the top 21% citywide, which suggests there is potential for additions. However, local zoning, setback requirements, and any restrictive covenants would need to be checked with the city. The lot is generous, but permission for specific projects depends on current regulations.
5. How does this home rank compared to others currently for sale in Windsor Park?
This data is based on all comparable homes in the area, not just active listings. For current sale comparisons, it’s best to check recent listings in the same price range and size. The property’s lot size and older construction make it somewhat distinctive among newer or smaller lots in the neighbourhood.
