Lindenholm Place: The best 55+ Building in Winnipeg?
Lindenholm Place at 885 Wilkes: Possibly the best 55+ community in Winnipeg?
With populations getting older, demand for so-called “55+ communities” is on the rise. There are a few of these types of buildings, which restrict occupancy to only those of a certain age (either 50+ or 55+). Here is a look at one of the best of these, Lindenholm Place at 885 Wilkes Ave.
Leasehold
The units in this building are actually “Leasehold” which is different than condo-ownership. Buyers purchase the right to lease the unit, and do not receive the usual ‘Title of Ownership”, as they would with a condo or a house. As such, the sale is governed by the rules of the Land Lease Act, which grants purchasers the right to re-consider their purchase for 7 days, which is now the same time period as granted to condo buyers. One of the benefits is that there are no property taxes for the individual owners to pay, as is the case with condominiums.
The down-side is that a buyer can not get a traditional mortgage for this purchase. The buyer must have the funds to make the purchase outright.
Restrictions
Just as any condo might have restrictions, Lindenholm Place is a strict 55+ building. Additional restrictions include ‘No Pets Allowed”, as well as “No Smoking” anywhere in the building, including inside the suites.
Amenities at Lindenholm Place
Here is there this community shines: The building, which is all concrete, and built in 1989, features an indoor pool and solarium area. There is a hot tub and sauna room and beautiful sitting area, facing south. There is a large ‘party-room’ with kitchen, library, fireplace and television. This is where residents get together for card games, pot luck dinners and other social events.
Suites, which range in size from about 750 sq feet up to over 1200 sq feet, feature insuite laundry, central air conditioning and large balconies. South-facing suites are nice and bright, and north-facing suites offer an exceptional view of the lake and grounds. There is a garden area which residents can tend, greenery for walking, or relaxing.
Shuttle Service and Parking
There is a free shuttle to local grocery stores a couple of times a week for those who dont drive. For residents who still drive their own vehicle, there is plenty of parking. Many units include an underground parking spot, and the remainder come with an outdoor spot with plugin.
Security
This is a very secure building, with on-site caretaker, security door with intercom and other features.
Monthly Fees:
Monthly fees (which are normally referred to as condo-fees) range from around $500-750, depending on the unit size. As mentioned above, there are no property taxes on top of that, which is a bonus. The fees DO include cablevision (both MTS and SHAW are in the building), as well as water, management fees, parking and amenities. Residents do pay for their own Hydro (lights and heat), which may range in the $40 to $60 per month, depending on location and temperature setting.

This second type of condo requires the owner to walk up one flight of stairs to get to the living-room/dining-room/kitchen space, and then walk up a 2nd flight of stairs to get to the 2 bedrooms and bathroom.
Condo Restrictions:
Just the usual condo-restrictions, such as “No Laundry to be hung from the balcony” etc. Pets are allowed, so long as they don’t pose a nuisance to other owners.
Property Taxes
Gross Property Taxes are currently at approx. $2115.00 per unit. Of course, as an owner who actually lives in their unit, you would qualify for the Provincial Home Owners Assistance Rebate, similar to when you own a house.
Condo Fees
Condo fees are $210 per month, which includes snow removal, property maintenance and management fees. Owners pay for their own hydro, telephone, and water bills.
Laundry and Parking
All units have their own in-suite laundry, and units have one parking spot included. At this time (Jan 2012) no additional parking spots were available for rent, although a neighbouring condo complex WAS renting out a few stalls to owners of Chimney Ridge Condominiums.
Amenities of Chimney Ridge Condominiums
This condominium is a bare-bones condo. No pool, fitness room or other amenities, which helps to keep the condo fees nice and low. Of special note is the fact that the main floor units feature a small yard, while the upper condos have a balcony. All units have central furnace and c/air conditioners.
Location
Located right on a bus route of Pembina Hwy, and just south of the University of Manitoba, this condo complex has become very popular with students and property investors who are looking to purchase the units and rent them out.
Prices
During the 2 yr period of 2010-2011, condos at Chimney Ridge have sold for between $170,000 and $190,000 (MLS® stats). Looking at sales in 2016, prices have remained fairly stable, with units selling btw $160K and $187K.
Townhouse condos are a great real estate investment. Here’s why. https://t.co/MS7WzwMfd3

I also noted pets coming out of one building, but saw other listings which said “Pets Restricted”…. so you have to look carefully at each condo rules and by-laws.

Amenities at The Mosaic
This Condo project features a very nice fitness room, as well as a ‘Party Room”. What I consider a bonus, this condo’s management company is located right inside the building (at least it was at the time of this report in Jan 2012). This means that owners have easy access to the management company in case of problems. Another nice feature is the security in the building. Owners control entry to the building via their telephone, and yes, cell-phones can be used so long as the owners cell phone is a local number.
