Highlights & common questions: 2005 Ross Avenue W, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This two-storey home on Ross Avenue West in Brooklands presents a practical opportunity with distinct characteristics. Built in 1956, it sits on a standard lot for the area but offers a significant standout feature: its living space. At 1,554 sqft, the home provides substantially more interior room than most comparable properties on its street and in the wider neighbourhood, ranking in the top 6% and 2% respectively. This creates a value proposition centred on space within a modest assessed value framework. The home includes a detached garage and has no basement or pool.

Its appeal lies in offering above-average square footage at an accessible price point, a relative rarity. It would suit first-time buyers, space-conscious small families, or investors looking for a roomy rental property in a no-frills, established neighbourhood. A thoughtful perspective for a buyer is to consider the trade-off: the home provides generous living area but may require updates common for its age, positioning it as a project with the core, spacious structure already in place.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value compare to the recent sale price?
The home sold in October 2022 for $26,300, which is very close to its current assessed value of $26,500. This suggests the assessment is closely aligned with a recent market transaction.

2. Is the living area unusually large for the area?
Yes. The data indicates this home's living area is exceptionally large for Brooklands, ranking in the top 2% of comparable homes (17th out of 1,048). It is also significantly larger than the average home on its own street.

3. What should I consider about the year of construction?
Built in 1956, the home is older than the average for Winnipeg but is around the typical age for its immediate area. Buyers should budget for potential updates to major aging components like roofing, windows, or plumbing, while also appreciating the character and solid construction of the era.

4. The city-wide ranking for land area is low. Does that matter?
The lot size is below the Winnipeg average but is above average for Ross Avenue West and typical for Brooklands. This indicates the neighbourhood generally features smaller, manageable lots. The value here is directed more toward interior space than extensive outdoor land.

5. Are there comparable recent sales nearby for reference?
The nearby property at 1991 Ross Avenue W, which sold earlier, offers a relevant comparison. It is older (1930), has less living area (1,087 sqft), and had a lower assessed value at the time, helping to contextualize the premium for this home's greater square footage.
