Property Overview & Key Characteristics

This one-storey home at 519 Jamison Avenue in Winnipeg's Chalmers neighbourhood presents a straightforward, entry-level opportunity. Built in 1914, its 720 sqft living area is modest but is actually around average for houses on Jamison Avenue itself. The property sits on a 2,542 sqft lot and includes a detached garage. A key point to note is that the basement exists but is noted as not renovated. The home’s assessed value is significantly below the Winnipeg city-wide average, reflecting its scale and vintage.

Its primary appeal lies in affordability and location within a well-established area. It suits first-time buyers or investors looking for a practical footprint with lower carrying costs. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home is smaller and older than the city average, it holds its own within its immediate street and neighbourhood context—suggesting a community of similar, character homes. The unrenovated basement represents both a cost consideration and a blank slate for future potential.
