Property Overview: 169 Harbison Avenue W, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This two-storey home, built in 1912, presents a unique value proposition centered on space and potential. Its primary appeal lies in its generous 1,248 sqft living area, which is notably larger than most similar homes on its street and in the Chalmers neighbourhood. This makes it a standout for buyers seeking more interior room without a premium price tag. The home sits on a standard city lot and features a renovated basement, adding functional living space.
The property is best suited for practical, value-oriented buyers. This includes first-time homeowners or investors looking for a character home with a solid amount of space to personalize. Its below-average citywide assessed and recent sale values suggest an accessible entry point into the market. A thoughtful perspective for the right buyer is viewing its 1912 build date not just as age, but as an opportunity to own a piece of local history with the character that era often provides, while the renovated basement offers a modern, move-in-ready starting point for further updates.
