Property Overview
This 1959 one-storey home at 387 Harbison Avenue W in Winnipeg's Chalmers neighbourhood presents a specific and practical opportunity. Its key appeal lies in its efficient scale and recent updates, situated on a standard city lot. The home is notably compact, with 648 sqft of living space, which positions it well below average size for the area. However, it features a renovated basement, adding functional space, and includes a detached garage. The property’s year built is newer than most on its street and in Chalmers, suggesting potentially fewer concerns related to the age of core components compared to many neighbouring homes. With an assessed value significantly below the Winnipeg average, it represents an accessible entry point into the market.
This property would suit a first-time buyer, an investor, or someone seeking a minimalist footprint without a large renovation project. Its manageable size and updated basement make it a practical, low-maintenance option. A thoughtful perspective is that while the living area is small, the renovated basement and detached garage effectively extend the usable space beyond the main floor square footage, offering more flexibility than the numbers initially suggest. It’s a home for those who prioritize function, location, and value over sheer size.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the house too small?
At 648 sqft on the main floor, the living area is compact. However, the presence of a renovated basement significantly increases the usable living and storage space, making the overall footprint more practical for one or two people.
2. How does the assessed value compare?
The assessed value is around average for Harbison Avenue W and the Chalmers neighbourhood but is well below the citywide average. This typically indicates a more affordable property tax burden relative to much of Winnipeg.
3. What does the "newer" year built mean for this area?
Built in 1959, this home is newer than most on its street and in Chalmers, where many homes date from the early 1900s. This can be an advantage, potentially meaning updates to foundational elements like wiring or plumbing occurred later than in century-old homes.
4. What is the land like?
The lot is a standard city size at 2,316 sqft, which is typical for the immediate area. It provides adequate outdoor space for a garden or patio without the high maintenance of a much larger yard.
5. Who would this property not suit?
It may not be ideal for a growing family needing multiple bedrooms or dedicated living spaces, or for buyers who prioritize expansive main-floor living areas. The compact layout requires efficient use of space.
