The living room is the big one: a long run of hardwood with a wide picture window facing Churchill Drive Park and the Red River beyond it. It opens to the kitchen and the dining room, so whoever is cooking is still part of the party.
The dining room has sliding glass doors straight out to the covered back deck, which makes it easy to spill outside in summer. Two bedrooms and the main bathroom sit down the hall, away from the noise.
The front of the house faces Churchill Drive Park, with the Red River sitting behind it. That is not a detail you find on most blocks in Riverview, or anywhere else in the city.
BMC Market is ten minutes on foot. Marigold and Tabula Rasa are both eleven. On a weeknight when you do not want to drive, that is a real advantage.
Churchill Park Tot Lot is a three-minute walk, St. Vital Bridge Park is four. Carey Park is a six-minute drive when you want more room to move.
The Diagnostic Learning Centre, which runs Montessori programming, is eight minutes on foot. Its English kindergarten-to-grade-six program is seven. Windsor School, serving kindergarten through grade eight, is six minutes by car.
Riverview puts you close to the river corridor and within easy reach of the rest of the city. The neighbourhood is connected without feeling like a thoroughfare.
From 1891 to 1941, the land along this stretch of the Red River was River Park, built by the street railway as the stop at the end of its Osborne Street line. Winnipeg came out by streetcar for the racetrack, the roller rink, the zoo and the midway.
The biggest ride was the Deep Dipper, a wooden roller coaster designed by John A. Miller. It opened in 1928, climbed about 20 metres on its lift hill and reached about 70 km/h.
The park closed after Labour Day 1941. In 1942 the city bought the riverbank for Churchill Drive Park, the rest was sold for houses, and the Riverview streets you see today went in after the war.

Downstairs is a long carpeted rec room with a built-in counter, plenty of space for a TV room, a games table or guests who stay over.
The third bedroom is down here too, along with a second bathroom. Two bedrooms up and one down gives a bit of separation for a teenager, a guest or a home office.
The detached garage sits at the back of the lot with a wide concrete pad in front of it. The lot is just over 8,000 square feet, so there is real yard left over once the garage is in.
Off the dining room is a covered deck, and past it is open lawn with mature trees along the edges.
The tax figure is an estimate, not the bill: derived from City of Winnipeg assessment data at 2026 residential rates for the Winnipeg School Division. It excludes the street frontage levy and local improvements. Owner occupied homes may qualify for Manitoba's education property tax credit. The owner's tax bill is the exact figure. Recycling day from the City of Winnipeg collection schedule.
