Property Summary: 1859 Legion Avenue, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This well-situated one-storey home in Brooklands presents a practical opportunity with notable strengths. Its primary appeal lies in the efficient use of space and land. With 1,050 sqft of living area, the house is notably larger than many comparable homes on its street and in the broader neighbourhood, offering more interior room than typical for the area. The lot size of nearly 5,000 sqft is a significant asset, ranking well above average locally and providing generous outdoor space for a property of this type.
The home suits first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a straightforward, single-level layout with a renovated basement—adding valuable finished space. Its assessed value is consistent with the immediate area, suggesting a fairly priced entry point into the market. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home's citywide assessed value ranks below average, this primarily reflects the property's location within Winnipeg's broader market spectrum rather than the home itself, highlighting a value-oriented purchase in a stable, established community. The detached garage and ample lot also offer flexibility for future expansion, gardening, or outdoor living.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size compare to others?
The 4,996 sqft lot is a standout feature. It places in the top 15% on Legion Avenue and the top 14% within the Brooklands neighbourhood, meaning it is substantially larger than many surrounding properties.
2. Is the living space typical for the area?
No, it's notably more spacious. At 1,050 sqft, the living area ranks in the top 13% on its street and the top 23% in Brooklands, offering more interior square footage than most direct peers.
3. What does the "below average" citywide assessed value mean?
This ranking reflects Winnipeg's wide range of property values. While it places below the city's median, the assessment is directly in line with the local Brooklands and Legion Avenue averages, indicating the home is priced appropriately for its specific market area.
4. What is the condition of the major systems, given the age?
The home was built in 1955. While the basement has been renovated, prospective buyers should prioritize a professional inspection to evaluate the age and condition of the roof, wiring, plumbing, and foundation, which are typical considerations for a house of this vintage.
5. Is there potential for future expansion or renovation?
The combination of a larger-than-average lot and a single-storey design presents a tangible opportunity. The lot could potentially accommodate an addition, subject to local zoning bylaws. The renovated basement also suggests previous updates have been made to add functional space.
