Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a unique property defined by a striking contrast. It is a very large, century-old home (built 1907) situated on a relatively small lot in the Burrows Central neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its exceptionally generous living space of 2,381 sq ft, which ranks in the top 1% for its immediate area and street. This makes it a rare find for buyers seeking substantial interior room without a correspondingly large yard to maintain.

The home suits two distinct types of buyers. First, it is ideal for large or multi-generational families who prioritize indoor space over outdoor land. Second, it appeals to value-conscious visionaries or investors who see potential in the significant square footage, understanding that the unrenovated basement and older systems present an opportunity to customize and add value over time. A thoughtful perspective is that the below-average land size and assessed value for Winnipeg may keep property taxes more manageable compared to other homes of similar interior scale, which is a practical advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does "One & 3/4 Storey" mean for the layout?
This style typically features a full main floor and a second floor where the roofline slopes into the rooms, creating cozy alcoves and potentially lower ceilings in parts of the upper level. It's a classic design for homes of this era.

2. The assessed value is $240k, but it last sold for $200k in 2017. What does this indicate?
The assessed value is the city's estimate for taxation purposes, not necessarily market value. The 2017 sale price is a historical data point. The current market value would be determined by recent comparable sales, condition, and buyer demand.

3. How significant is the "unrenovated basement"?
This means the basement is in original or functional condition but hasn't been modernized. It offers usable space and mechanical systems but will likely require updates for finishing. Buyers should budget for potential repairs or renovations to plumbing, electrical, or insulation.

4. The lot size is below average. What are the implications?
The yard will be compact, limiting extensive landscaping, large gardens, or additions like a sizable deck. However, this means less outdoor maintenance. Parking and access to the detached garage should be verified.

5. The home is over 115 years old. What should I be prepared for?
While offering character and solid construction, an older home requires diligent inspection. Key considerations include the age and condition of the roof, foundation, wiring, plumbing, and windows. Heating costs and efficiency should also be evaluated.
