Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This 2020-built bi-level home at 297 Jamison Avenue presents a modern living opportunity in Winnipeg's Chalmers neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its combination of new construction and a renovated basement within a well-established area. With 1,096 sqft of living space on a 3,055 sqft lot, it offers a low-maintenance footprint without feeling cramped.
The home’s standout feature is its age; it ranks in the top 3% for year built on its street and in the broader neighbourhood, meaning it offers contemporary building standards, energy efficiency, and minimal immediate repair concerns in a sea of much older homes. The renovated basement adds valuable finished space. While the lot size is modest citywide, it is above average for the immediate area, providing a balanced outdoor space.
This property would suit first-time homebuyers seeking a move-in-ready, modern home without the premium of a brand-new subdivision. It also appeals to downsizers looking for single-level living potential (with the primary living space on one floor) and those who want the character of an older neighbourhood but not the upkeep of an older house. The strong assessed and recent sale value, which are well above local averages, suggest a solid and desirable investment in this specific community.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or rooms. A buyer should inquire about the quality of the renovation, whether it includes a legal secondary suite or additional bedrooms, and if proper permits were obtained.
2. How does the lack of a garage affect daily life and resale?
The property has no garage. For this neighbourhood, street parking is common, but buyers should assess on-street parking availability, consider the cost of adding a parking pad or structure, and weigh the impact of storing vehicles and belongings without a dedicated garage.
3. The assessed value seems high for the area. Is this accurate?
The home's assessed value is in the elite top 3% for its street, reflecting its modern build year and condition compared to neighbouring properties. This suggests municipal assessors see significant value in its newness, which typically correlates with a stronger market price.
4. Is the living space suitable for a growing family?
At just over 1,000 sqft, the living area is above average for Chalmers but average for Winnipeg. The bi-level layout and renovated basement can help maximize space. It may suit a small or starter family well, but those needing multiple large bedrooms or expansive common areas should verify the room sizes and layout.
5. What are the less obvious pros and cons of such a new home in an old area?
A significant pro is modern infrastructure (plumbing, wiring, insulation) amidst mature trees and established community vibes. A potential con is a stylistic mismatch with neighbouring homes, and the lot size, while decent for the street, may feel compact compared to newer suburbs. Property taxes may also be higher relative to older homes on the block due to the assessment.
