Highlights & common questions: 655 Mcmeans Avenue E, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This 1974 one-storey home at 655 Mcmeans Avenue E in Canterbury Park is a compact, renovated property on a modest lot. Its key appeal lies in being an updated, manageable entry point into the Winnipeg market. With 800 sqft of living space, a renovated basement, and a detached garage, it offers the essentials without the scale or maintenance of a larger property. The lot size of 2,999 sqft is notably smaller than most in the immediate area and city-wide, which translates to less yard upkeep.

The home would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a turn-key, low-maintenance property where the renovation work is already done. Its recent sale price of $270k (February 2024) positioned it as an average value for the street but below average for the wider neighbourhood and city, highlighting its role as a relatively affordable option in the area. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home ranks below average in size and value compared to its neighbours, this can represent an opportunity for buyers priced out of larger Canterbury Park homes, offering a way into the neighbourhood at a lower threshold.


Frequently Asked Questions

Is the smaller lot size a disadvantage?
While the lot is smaller than area averages, it requires less maintenance and landscaping, which can be a benefit for those seeking a low-upkeep yard. It's a practical trade-off.

How does the recent sale price compare?
The February 2024 sale price of $270k was around average for Mcmeans Avenue E itself but below the average for the broader Canterbury Park neighbourhood, suggesting it was priced accessibly for the area.

What does "renovated basement" typically mean here?
The listing confirms a renovated basement, which in a home of this era and size likely adds crucial functional living or storage space to the 800 sqft main floor. Specific finishes should be verified.

Is the 1974 build date a concern?
The year built (1974) is newer than many homes on its specific street, which is a positive. However, as with any home 50+ years old, the condition of major systems like roof, wiring, and plumbing should be evaluated.

Who might this property not suit?
It may not suit buyers needing multiple bedrooms, extensive living space, or a large yard for gardening or recreation, as it ranks below area averages for both living area and land size.
