TIMELESS Elegance awaits

Todd Lewys 5 minute read Yesterday at 2:00 AM CDT

It’s a special quality that not every home possesses — a certain vibrancy that naturally draws your eye.

The 1,529-sq.-ft. bungalow at 364 Lockwood St. in River Heights north is definitely one of those homes.

“The outgoing owners have an exceptional eye for detail, and it starts with the front of the home,” says Cory Kehler of RE/MAX Executives Realty. “The landscaping is gorgeous, and the front of the home, with its Hardie board exterior, has a sharp, fresh look to it that catches your attention.”

In this instance, the interplay of design elements around the front of the house — landscaping that incorporates flowers, shrubs and plants as well as low-maintenance gravel and planters — complements the grey, taupe and black exterior. Newer, white-trimmed windows pop on the paint colours, a sign that this is no ordinary residence.

21st-floor apartment-style condo offers fantastic city views

Todd Lewys 6 minute read Saturday, Jun. 13, 2026

When most people think of their ideal lifestyle, they usually visualize living just far enough outside the city to enjoy country comfort, but not so far out that convenience is compromised.

However, some folks think a little differently.

To them, living downtown is an attractive thought — to be able to walk to work and have shops, restaurants and other amenities just minutes from their doorstep.

Unfortunately, the thought of living downtown is just that: a fancy that passes after they think of living in an area that can be stark (think too much concrete and dirty sidewalks), devoid of nature, and where it can be a pain to find parking, even if you find a home you love.

Walk down any street, on any given day, and most homes you pass will simply blend into the landscape.

Then there’s that one home that captures your attention.

A stately 3,523 sq. ft. two-and-a-half storey house nestled neatly on a 60-foot-wide by 140-foot-deep lot at 66 Kingsway in Crescentwood is one of those homes.

In this instance, a variety of details combine to create its distinctive look — a fetching front porch, swooping roofline and white trimmed windows (some square, some with rounded tops) which pop perceptibly on a sharp, medium grey exterior.

One of the most desirable qualities in a neighbourhood, aside from convenient location, is that it offers a palpable feeling of peace.

Yet, many desirable neighbourhoods within Winnipeg — River Heights, River Park South and Linden Woods, to name just a few — really aren’t that peaceful. That’s because they see significant traffic, which creates a sense of busyness that can be disconcerting. While you will get used to it eventually, it’s something you would gladly live without.

There are select few neighbourhoods around the city that are true enclaves, areas in which street traffic is mostly local and moves at a leisurely place.

Riverview is one of those neighbourhoods.

When a condominium is 35 years old, it can be hit or miss whether it’s contemporary in style or a throwback to the era in which it was designed.

Charlene Urbanski of Lifestyles Real Estate says she just listed an apartment-style suite in a tidy building at 805 St. Anne’s Rd. that simply sparkles.

“I’ll be honest — many units in buildings this old tend to be dated,” she says. “But not this one. It’s been remodelled from top to bottom.”

In the process — the 1,180-sq.-ft., two-bedroom suite was completely renovated in 2022 — it was taken from drab to dynamic, says Urbanski.

It’s something everyone craves — a home to fill you with an absolute sense of peace when you step inside after a long day.

Unfortunately, it’s a pipe dream for many. No matter where you live, there always seems to be something to shatter the silence, whether a loud truck rumbling down an adjacent street, a dog barking or an ambulance answering a call in the middle of the night.

Those things can naturally prompt a longing to live somewhere off the beaten path to avoid unwelcome disturbances.

Jeff Brown of Sutton Group-Kilkenny Real Estate says you don’t necessarily have to move out into the middle of an isolated forest when you can find a home like the one he just listed on a quiet street in Stonewall.

One of the biggest hallmarks of an alluring home is the precision that went into its design, both outside and in.

In turn, that commitment to excellence makes for a home that stands out from the rest.

That’s the case with a sleek bungalow situated on an oversized lot at 10 Stone Hearth Lane in Oak Bluff West, says Viktoria Fazekas of Re/Max Executives Realty.

“This home, which was built in 2022 by Paradigm Custom Homes, is set on a premium lot in one of the best spots in the community,” she says. “It’s an exceptional home. Not one detail has been missed in its design.”

Over the years, many neighbourhoods emerged with great fanfare, creating real anticipation among prospective homebuyers.

Those neighbourhoods include (in no particular order) the Bridgwater, Sage Creek and Ridgewood West — among others.

Then, there are some neighbourhoods that — for some reason — fly under the radar. One of those neighbourhoods is Van Hull Estates, located just west of another popular area, River Park South in South St. Vital.

Tucked away off St. Mary’s Road just north of the Perimeter Highway, it’s a quiet, well-treed enclave that runs back toward some of the most picturesque stretches of the Red River.

Entertaining the idea of building a new luxury home in one of Winnipeg’s newer neighbourhoods is a romantic pursuit. After all, you’re getting a brand-new home from top to bottom.

That being the case, it’s unlikely you’d get hit by any major repair bills for anywhere from five to 10 years (cross your fingers!).

Not only that, but the home delivered to you will be custom-tailored to your needs and tastes.

Unfortunately, there are some downsides associated with building new.

These days, a starter home can range in price from $300,000 to $400,000, depending on its condition and location.

And as many a young family has discovered, starter dwellings run the gamut from those needing a ton of work to those requiring little to no updating — and everything in between.

In most cases, houses listing for around $300,000 may need many upgrades, inflating the actual cost of the home to somewhere between $325,000 and $350,000 depending on what needs to be done.

If you’re handy, this may not be a daunting task. However, if you’re not so adept at home repair and refurbishment, the cost of required work — and possibly taking out a purchase-plus-improvements mortgage to cover up to $50,000 in renovation costs — may be untenable for many young couples looking to buy.

When it comes to ranking oxymorons, the term, “move-in-ready starter home” has to be close to the top of the list, or at least in the top five.

That’s because it’s very rare to find a starter abode that’s truly in move-in-ready condition.

However, there are exceptions.

A character-filled one-and-three-quarter-storey home found at 635 Ashburn St., in the city’s West End is as close to turn-key as you’ll find, says Eric Neumann of Real Brokers.

It would be an understatement to say these are very challenging times for homebuyers, especially young families.

Just a few short years ago, a solid, relatively contemporary starter home could be purchased for somewhere around $300,000. That is no longer the case today due to two factors.

First, homes have naturally appreciated in value over the last three years. And second, home inventory is very low.

This second factor has created bidding wars. Homes — whether move-in-ready or in need of work — are routinely selling for as much as $80,000-$100,000 over list price, leaving many young families licking their wounds after losing out on listing after listing.

The decision to down-size around the age of 55 is never an easy one.

There are several reasons for this, the first that it can be a highly emotional time.

After living in a single-family home for 30-plus years, it can be difficult to leave a familiar residence that’s served as the anchor point where you raised kids and hosted countless family gatherings.

Second, there are the financial implications associated with making the move. The reality is, not all 55-plus couples have unlimited budgets after selling their home. In many instances, it may have been a modest but functional residence that sold for a good, but not massive price.
