Property Overview
This one-and-a-half storey home, built in 1945, sits on a generous 4,651 sqft lot in Central St. Boniface. Its key features include a renovated basement and a detached garage. With 1,230 sqft of living space, the home offers a practical layout for its era. The property last sold in January 2023 for $35,800 and currently holds an assessed value of $33,500.
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This property’s primary appeal lies in its balance of established neighbourhood character and practical updates. The renovated basement adds immediate functional living space, a valuable asset in a home of this vintage. Its lot size is notably above average for the immediate street and area, offering more outdoor space than many neighbouring properties—a relative rarity in mature neighbourhoods.
The home would suit a pragmatic first-time buyer or an investor looking for a character home in a historic area without a premium price tag. It’s also a sensible fit for those who value a larger yard over a larger house. A less obvious perspective is its potential for a buyer interested in the "bones" and location; the solid lot size and the existing renovation work provide a foundation that could be built upon over time, whether through further updates, an addition, or garden development.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the assessed value the same as the market value?
No. The assessed value of $33,500 is for municipal tax purposes. The home last sold for $35,800 in early 2023, which is a more recent indicator of its market value, though conditions can change.
2. What does "one-and-a-half storey" typically mean for a 1945 home?
It usually indicates a home with a main floor and a second floor under sloping rooflines, often featuring cozy bedrooms with dormer windows. This style is common in Winnipeg’s older neighbourhoods and offers classic charm, though ceiling heights in the upper rooms may be lower than in modern homes.
3. How does the lot size compare to others?
The lot is larger than average for both Des Meurons Street and the broader Central St. Boniface area. This is a significant advantage, providing more private outdoor space than many comparable properties.
4. What is the significance of the renovated basement?
In a climate like Winnipeg’s, a renovated basement effectively adds year-round living space. It suggests that foundational moisture and insulation concerns may have been addressed, which is a common consideration for homes of this age.
5. Are there any obvious concerns with a house built in 1945?
While the renovated basement is a plus, prospective buyers should still consider the potential age of major systems like plumbing, electrical, and the roof. A professional home inspection is highly recommended to evaluate the condition of these older components.
