Property Summary: 247 Gordon Avenue, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a classic one-and-a-half storey home in Winnipeg's Chalmers neighbourhood, built in 1907. Its key characteristic is a well-proportioned lot that is notably larger than most in the immediate area, offering above-average outdoor space for the street. The home itself has around 1,013 sqft of living space, which is typical for similar homes nearby. It features an attached garage and a basement that is present but not renovated.
The appeal lies in its grounded, no-frills potential. For the price-conscious buyer, it represents an entry into homeownership with a valuable asset—the land. The lot size is a standout feature that provides room for gardening, expansion, or simply more privacy than neighbouring properties. It would suit a first-time buyer comfortable with a home that may require updates, or an investor looking for a character property with a solid land base in an established neighbourhood. A thoughtful perspective is that its 1907 build date, while requiring due diligence, offers a sense of permanence and craftsmanship often absent in newer builds, appealing to those who value heritage charm over modern finishes.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the lot size a significant advantage?
Yes. The land area of 2,744 sqft ranks in the top 27% on Gordon Avenue, meaning it's larger than most direct neighbours. This is the property's most competitive feature.
2. What should I know about the year it was built?
Built in 1907, the home is older than most in the city. This necessitates a thorough inspection to understand the condition of foundational elements, wiring, and plumbing, but also contributes to its character.
3. How does the assessed value relate to the sale price?
The last sale price was $180k, while the assessed value is listed as $16.3k. It's crucial to understand that this assessed value is likely for tax purposes only and is not a market valuation. Always rely on a current market analysis for pricing.
4. What does "basement, not renovated" typically imply?
It confirms the house has a basement, but it is in original or utilitarian condition. Buyers should budget for potential moisture management, insulation, or finishing to make it a comfortable living or storage space.
5. How does this home compare to others in Winnipeg?
The data shows it's a modestly-sized home on a decent lot in its local area. City-wide, its living space and lot size are below the Winnipeg average, which reflects its positioning as an affordable, inner-city option rather than a suburban one.
