Property Overview: 801 College Avenue, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This one-and-a-half storey home in Burrows Central is defined by its substantial, above-average lot—over 5,800 square feet—which is a standout feature for the area. The house itself, built in 1943, offers renovated basement space and a functional living area that is notably spacious compared to other homes in the immediate neighbourhood. Its appeal lies in this generous outdoor space, offering rare potential for gardening, expansion, or simply more privacy in an established community. The detached garage adds practical utility.

The property suits practical, value-oriented buyers. It’s ideal for first-time homeowners seeking a manageable house with a large yard, or for investors looking for a land-advantaged property in a stable area. The data suggests you are purchasing a lot with significant relative size and a solid, updated foundation (the renovated basement), rather than a large or modern structure. It’s a property where the land is the leading asset, appealing to those who see long-term potential or value in outdoor space over interior square footage.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the low assessed value a concern?
No, it reflects typical values for well-maintained older homes in this established neighbourhood. The sale price is consistent with area trends, and the assessed value is in line with similar homes on the same street.

2. How does the lot size compare practically?
At 5,826 sq. ft., the lot is in the top 7% on College Avenue and top 4% in Burrows Central. This means you get roughly 50% more land than the neighbourhood average, a significant advantage for privacy, recreation, or future projects.

3. What does "above average for the neighbourhood but below average city-wide" mean for living space?
It means the 1,152 sq. ft. home is comfortably sized compared to its direct peers in Burrows Central, but more modest compared to the average Winnipeg home. This is typical for the area and contributes to its manageability and value.

4. The home is 83 years old. What should I consider?
While the renovated basement is a positive update, the core structure is from 1943. A thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition of major systems (roof, wiring, plumbing) common to homes of this era, beyond the recent renovations.

5. Who are the likely neighbours?
The immediate surroundings consist of similar vintage, single-family homes on generous lots, suggesting a stable, established community. The proximity to multiple properties on the same block (805-815 College Ave.) indicates a tight-knit streetscape.
