Highlights & common questions: 532 Harbison Avenue W, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This one-storey home at 532 Harbison Avenue W in Winnipeg's Chalmers neighbourhood presents a specific and practical value proposition. Its key appeal lies in the balance between a modest, renovated living space and a generously sized lot in a well-established area. Built in 1959, the 699 sqft house sits on a 4,359 sqft lot, which is notably larger than most in the immediate vicinity and the broader neighbourhood. This combination means the property's value is anchored more in its land and location than in its interior square footage.

The home would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an affordable entry into the market with a manageable space and a renovated basement. It also appeals to value-oriented investors or long-term owners who see potential in the lot size for future expansion, gardening, or outdoor space, which is a premium in older neighbourhoods. Its assessed value is consistent with area averages, suggesting a stable, no-surprises investment rather than a speculative play.
