Property Overview: 2398 Ness Avenue

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-established one-storey home in Winnipeg's Booth neighborhood sits on a generous 6,605 sqft lot, placing it among the largest properties on its street. Built in 1961, it offers 1,238 sqft of living space and features key updates including a renovated basement and the added luxury of a private pool—a rare find for the area. The attached garage provides practical convenience.

Its primary appeal lies in its established setting and significant outdoor space, offering room for gardening, recreation, and expansion. The pool transforms the yard into a private summer retreat. The home’s assessed value is notably high for its street, suggesting it is a standout property in terms of investment or improvements. It would perfectly suit buyers looking for a move-in-ready home with recreational amenities, those who value larger lot sizes over a brand-new build, or families seeking a established neighborhood with room to grow. Its one-storey layout also makes it a strong candidate for those considering long-term accessibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the high assessed value ranking mean?
The home is ranked in the top 2% on its street for assessed value, indicating it is officially valued significantly higher than most neighbors. This often reflects substantial updates, desirable features (like the pool and renovated basement), or the premium of its large lot.

2. Is the pool a benefit or a burden?
While a major recreational asset that adds unique appeal and summer enjoyment, a pool does require ongoing maintenance, carries insurance considerations, and has seasonal utility costs. It's a prized feature for the right buyer.

3. How does the age of the home factor in?
Built in 1961, the home is older than most on its street. This suggests a mature property with established landscaping. Buyers should prioritize a thorough inspection to understand the condition of major aging components like the roof, plumbing, and electrical systems, balanced against the character and lot size that era of home often provides.

4. The last sale was in 2020 for $340k. How useful is that price today?
That sale price provides a historical benchmark, but market conditions have likely shifted since 2020. It's best used as a reference point to discuss market trends with your agent, not as a direct indicator of current value.

5. Who might this home not suit?
It may not be ideal for those seeking a modern, open-concept layout without renovation work, or for buyers who prefer a low-maintenance yard without the responsibilities of a pool and larger lot.
