Homes in Windsor Park

Windsor Park is one of Winnipeg's first planned communities, developed from the 1950s in the southeast. You can see the planning in the street layout, with curving, traffic-calming bays and generous green space woven through it. The housing is largely mid-century: well-kept bungalows and split-level homes on comfortable, tree-lined lots, most of them detached and single-family. It has settled into a leafy, family-oriented neighbourhood with a real sense of community.

Green, planned and close to downtown

The design was ahead of its time, and it still pays off. Golf courses, public pools and parks are threaded through the area, the streets stay calm thanks to the bays, and downtown is only a short drive. Lagimodiere Boulevard and Fermor Avenue connect the neighbourhood across the southeast and into the rest of the city, so you get an established, green setting without being far from anything.

Buying and selling here

These are mostly 1950s and 60s homes, so match your checks to that. The furnace, windows, wiring and roof, and a dry basement with a working sump pump, and ask what has been updated, since a home of this age may have original systems or fully modernized ones. On a split-level, look at how the levels and additions have held up. Selling here, the mature lot, the planned green setting and the practical family layout are your strong points.
