Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This two-storey home on Bowman Avenue in Chalmers presents a distinct opportunity centered on space and potential. Built in 1913, its key appeal lies in its generous proportions. The 1,440 sqft living area is notably larger than most homes on its street and in the neighbourhood, placing it in the top 5% locally. It sits on a 5,000 sqft lot, which is also well above average for the area. The property includes a detached garage and a basement that is present but not renovated.
Its assessed value is significantly below the Winnipeg city-wide average, suggesting a value proposition rooted in the existing structure and land rather than high-end finishes. The home last sold in August 2023.
This property would suit a buyer looking for a character home with ample indoor and outdoor space to shape to their own vision. It’s a practical choice for someone comfortable with a project, whether that means living with the existing layout for its spaciousness or planning gradual updates. It may also appeal to those prioritizing lot size and interior square footage in a neighbourhood context over a modern, turn-key condition.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does "basement, not renovated" typically mean for a home of this age?
It indicates the basement is unfinished or has original, dated finishes. For a 1913 home, this could mean stone or concrete foundation walls, basic utility space, and likely low ceilings. It represents significant potential for additional living or storage space but would require investment.
2. The assessed value seems low compared to recent sale prices. Why is that?
Municipal assessed value for taxation purposes often lags behind market values and is calculated using a specific formula. The sale price is determined by current market conditions. The gap here may reflect strong demand for homes with this lot and living area size in the area, or specific features the assessment doesn't capture.
3. How significant is the larger-than-average living area and lot size?
In this neighbourhood, it’s a standout feature. It means more room for families, hobbies, or future additions compared to nearby properties. The large lot offers privacy, outdoor space, and potential that is increasingly rare in mature neighbourhoods.
4. The home is older than most in Winnipeg. What should I consider?
While it offers character, key systems like plumbing, electrical, and insulation may need evaluation or updating. The charm comes with the responsibility of maintaining an older structure, but this can be offset by the sturdy construction and spatial benefits not found in many newer homes.
5. Who might the "value-conscious" or "project-ready" buyer be?
This could range from a handy first-time buyer willing to renovate over time, to an investor looking for a property with strong "bones" and rental potential due to its size, or even a family needing space immediately who can defer cosmetic updates. It’s for those who see the underlying asset rather than just the surface condition.
