Property Overview
This two-storey home on Des Meurons Street in Central St. Boniface presents a compelling blend of historic character and practical updates. Built in 1910, it sits on a generous 4,157 sqft lot, offering more outdoor space than many homes in the immediate area. Its key feature is a renovated basement, adding valuable finished living space to the already above-average 1,484 sqft interior. The property includes a detached garage.
The appeal lies in its balance. It offers the charm and lot size of an older St. Boniface home without being the smallest or most dated on the block. The renovated basement suggests modern livability layered into a classic structure. This home would suit a buyer looking for established neighbourhood character, a good relative amount of indoor and outdoor space, and a foundation that has seen some key modernization. It’s a practical entry into a historic area, likely appealing to those who value space and location over a brand-new build.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "renovated basement" entail?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. Buyers should inquire about the finish quality, ceiling height, permitted uses, and whether it includes a bathroom or secondary suite potential.
2. How does the assessed value relate to the likely sale price?
The home's assessed value is around $30k, but it last sold for $300k in 2019. The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is typically far below market value. The 2019 sale price is a more relevant, though dated, benchmark.
3. Are there any concerns with a home built in 1910?
While the renovated basement is a plus, a 116-year-old home will have aging core components. Prospective buyers should pay special attention to the foundation, original plumbing and electrical systems, roof, and insulation during an inspection.
4. The lot is ranked "around average" for the street but "below average" citywide. What does this mean?
This highlights the neighbourhood's character. You're getting a typically sized lot for desirable, established central neighbourhoods like St. Boniface, which generally have smaller lots than newer suburban developments. It's a trade-off for location.
5. What is the significance of the detached garage?
A detached garage on a large lot offers flexibility. It provides secure parking and storage but also presents future potential for a workshop, studio, or even lane-way development, subject to city zoning regulations.
