Property Overview: 1068 Burrows Avenue

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home on Burrows Avenue presents a compelling mix of space, value, and established neighbourhood character. Its most striking feature is its generous living area of 2,276 sq ft, which ranks in the top 1% of homes both on its street and in the broader Burrows Central neighbourhood. This offers significantly more interior space than typical area homes. The property sits on a well-sized lot and includes a detached garage and a renovated basement, adding functional utility.

The appeal lies in the opportunity to acquire a substantially larger home in a central location without the premium price often associated with such space. While the 1961 build date is standard for the area, the home’s recent sale history and above-average assessed value for the neighbourhood suggest it has been maintained as a solid investment. It suits buyers who prioritize interior square footage—ideal for growing families, those needing a home office, or multi-generational living—and who value the practicality of a detached garage and finished basement. It’s a property for those looking beyond cosmetic trends for a home with proven, spacious fundamentals.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s value compare to the area?
The home’s assessed value is in the top tier for Burrows Central, indicating it is considered a higher-value property within the neighbourhood. However, its last sale price was around average for Winnipeg overall, suggesting you get more house for your money here compared to many city-wide alternatives.

2. Is the land size typical for the area?
Yes. The lot is approximately 3,732 sq ft, which is above average for the Burrows Central neighbourhood but slightly below the city-wide average. It provides a balanced yard space that is manageable and in line with local expectations.

3. What does the “renovated basement” entail?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope or finish. A professional inspection or inquiry with the seller is recommended to determine the quality of the renovation, its permitted status, and the current condition of foundational elements.

4. The home was built in 1961. What should I consider?
While the build date is newer than many neighbouring homes, a property of this age will likely have systems (like plumbing, electrical, and roofing) that are at or beyond their typical lifespan. Its well-maintained condition is a positive sign, but a thorough inspection is crucial to understand any upcoming maintenance or updates required.

5. How does the living space compare to nearby homes?
This is the home’s standout feature. With over 2,200 sq ft of living area, it offers roughly double the interior space of the average home on Burrows Avenue and in the Burrows Central area. This makes it a notably spacious option in this location.
