Highlights & common questions: 234 Gordon Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview

234 Gordon Avenue is a well-maintained one-storey home built in 1954, situated on a notably spacious lot in Winnipeg's Chalmers neighbourhood. Its key features include a renovated basement and a detached garage. The property presents a specific value proposition centered on land and location rather than expansive living space.

Key Characteristics & Appeal

The primary appeal of this home lies in its generous 5,552 sqft lot, which ranks in the top 2% for size on its street and the top 6% within Chalmers. This offers significant outdoor space and potential for gardening, expansion, or simply enjoying a less crowded feel in the city. The house itself, at 936 sqft of living area, is modest and efficient, suitable for individuals, couples, or small families. Its assessed value is strong for its immediate area, suggesting it is a well-regarded property on its block.

It would best suit a pragmatic buyer who prioritizes land over square footage, values a renovated basement for extra living or utility space, and appreciates a home with a stable history in an established neighbourhood. It’s a practical choice for someone looking for a manageable property with room to breathe outdoors, without the upkeep of a much larger house.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or layout. A viewing or inquiry with the seller is necessary to understand if it’s a finished living space, a modernized utility area, or includes specific features like a bathroom or separate entrance.

2. How does the lot size compare to a typical Winnipeg property?
While the lot is significantly above average for its street and neighbourhood, it is closer to the city-wide average. This highlights that the home offers a premium parcel of land within Chalmers itself.

3. The assessed value seems high for the living area. Why?
The assessment reflects more than just interior square footage. It accounts for the desirable lot size, the renovated condition of the basement, and the property's standing relative to other homes on Gordon Avenue and in Chalmers, where it ranks above average.

4. Is the detached garage heated or insulated?
This detail is not provided in the available data. The condition, size, and features of the detached garage would be important points to clarify directly.

5. The home sold for much less in 2016 and 2017. Does that indicate a problem?
Those sale prices are from several years ago and likely do not reflect the renovated basement or current market conditions. The substantial increase in assessed value since then suggests significant improvements have been made to the property.
