Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This one-and-a-half storey home on Burrows Avenue presents a practical opportunity in Winnipeg's Burrows Central neighbourhood. Built in 1922, its key appeal lies in offering more living space than many area homes, with 1,296 sqft ranking well above the local average. The lot is a standard city size for the area at just over 3,000 sqft and includes a detached garage. The home has an unrenovated basement, indicating potential for future customization.

Its strongest suit is value and space within its immediate context. While its assessed value and features are modest citywide, they are competitive for Burrows Central. This property would suit a first-time buyer, an investor, or a hands-on owner looking for a character home with room to grow into. The appeal is grounded in practicality—it offers proportionally generous interior space on a standard lot, in a neighbourhood where it stands above average for roominess. A thoughtful perspective is that its "around average" rankings on the street for year, land, and value suggest it's a typical, unassuming property for the block, which can mean stability and predictable costs rather than standing out as an outlier.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does "above average living area" for the neighbourhood mean?
Compared to other homes in Burrows Central, this house offers significantly more interior space (1,296 sqft), ranking in the top 10%. You're getting more room than most nearby properties.

2. Is the basement finished or usable?
The listing specifies the basement exists but is "not renovated." Buyers should budget for potential upgrades and anticipate it in original condition.

3. How does the assessed value relate to the likely sale price?
The assessed value is $20.3k, but a nearby, similar home on this street sold for $220k in 2019. Assessed value for property tax purposes is typically much lower than market value; recent sales are a better price guide.

4. What is the significance of the detached garage?
A detached garage provides secure parking and storage. It's a valuable asset, but consider factors like its condition and the walk to the house during Winnipeg winters.

5. The home is over 100 years old. What should I consider?
A home from 1922 will have character but requires diligent inspection for aging infrastructure like plumbing, electrical, and the foundation. Its unrenovated state means major systems may be original or dated.
