Property Summary: 2808 Ness Avenue

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1965-built, four-level split home sits on a notably large lot (4,449 sq ft) in Winnipeg's Booth neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in a combination of generous space and recent updates. With 1,498 sq ft of living area, it ranks among the largest homes on its street. A key feature is the renovated basement, adding modern, functional space. The property’s lot size is a significant asset, placing it in the top tier locally and offering ample outdoor potential.

The home suits practical buyers looking for established-character homes with room to grow, both inside and out. It’s ideal for those who value a larger-than-average yard in the city and appreciate a home where foundational updates, like the basement, are already addressed. The recent sale price suggests it was seen as a value proposition in its area, appealing to buyers comparing size and lot against newer builds. Its configuration as a four-level split offers distinct zoning for living and sleeping areas, which can suit families or those wanting separation between living and private spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the "renovated basement" typically include?
While specifics aren't listed, a renovated basement in a home of this era often means updated finishes, flooring, and lighting, potentially creating a legal or comfortable secondary living space, rec room, or additional bedrooms.

2. How does having no garage affect daily life and property value?
It means relying on street parking, which is a factor to consider for multiple drivers or during winter. While some buyers see this as a drawback, the large lot could allow for the future addition of a garage or shed, subject to local bylaws.

3. The assessed value is much lower than the recent sale price. Why?
Municipal assessed value for tax purposes often lags behind the current market and doesn't always reflect recent renovations or interior condition. The sale price is the true indicator of its market value as of June 2024.

4. Is the large lot size mostly a benefit?
Generally, yes, for privacy, play space, or gardening. However, a lot of this size also requires more maintenance for lawn care and landscaping, which is a consideration for time or budget.

5. What does the "four-level split" layout mean for daily living?
This design creates multiple half-levels, offering good separation between living, sleeping, and utility areas. It can feel more compartmentalized than an open-concept layout, which some prefer for privacy and noise reduction, but may involve more stairs to navigate.
