Key Characteristics & Appeal

This one-and-a-half storey home, built in 1950, presents a practical opportunity in Winnipeg's Burrows Central neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its above-average proportions for the immediate area. The 1,284 sqft living area is notably larger than many neighbouring homes, and it sits on a generous 4,521 sqft lot, offering more space both inside and out than is typical for the street and community. A key updated feature is the renovated basement, adding functional living space. The property includes a detached garage.

The home’s assessed value is modest relative to the Winnipeg city-wide average, positioning it as an accessible entry point into the market. It would suit first-time buyers, practical investors, or those seeking a home with solid interior and land space who are comfortable with a property that is older than the city average. The data suggests a home that stands out positively within its own community context, even if it isn't a standout city-wide, making it a sensible choice for value-focused buyers prioritizing space over modern luxury.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this property compare to others nearby?
The home ranks above average for its street and neighbourhood in key categories: it has more living space and a larger lot than most comparable local properties, though its 1950 build date is around the local average.

2. What does the "renovated basement" entail?
The listing confirms the basement has been renovated, but the specific scope, quality, and permits for this work should be verified through a viewing and by asking the seller for details.

3. Is the assessed value a good indicator of the sale price?
Not directly. This home sold for $17.5k in 2019 and now has a $23.9k assessed value. Market conditions have changed, and sale prices are determined by current buyer competition. The assessment is best used for understanding property taxes, not for predicting sale price.

4. What are the implications of a detached garage?
A detached garage offers flexibility and can be ideal for a workshop or project space without affecting the main house. However, it may be less convenient during Winnipeg winters compared to an attached garage.

5. The city-wide rankings seem low. Is this a concern?
This reflects the property’s context. City-wide data includes newer suburbs and more expensive areas. The more relevant rankings are for "Same street" and "Same area," where this home performs well. It indicates you are buying a competitively sized property within an established, more affordable community.
