Highlights & common questions: 257 Sackville Street, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This 1940s one-storey home at 257 Sackville Street in Deer Lodge is a compact, renovated character property on a generous lot. Its key appeal lies in the balance between its modest, updated living space and its above-average land area for the immediate street, offering potential for expansion or outdoor enjoyment. The home features a renovated basement and a detached garage.

It would best suit first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable, updated property in a established neighbourhood without a large maintenance footprint. The lot size also makes it a practical option for buyers with a long-term view who value the possibility of extending the home (subject to approvals) more than immediate square footage.

Key Characteristics & Suitability

  • A Compact Home on a Spacious Lot: With 789 sqft of living space, the house itself is smaller than average for both the neighbourhood and the city. However, its land area of 4,695 sqft is notably larger than many of its direct neighbours on Sackville Street, placing it in the top 28% locally. This creates a unique value proposition: a lower-maintenance home with ample outdoor space and future potential.
  • Updated & Manageable: The renovated basement adds functional living space and modern convenience to the older structure. As a one-storey home, it offers straightforward, accessible living.
  • Established Neighbourhood Context: The property sits on a street where its assessed value is well above average (top 20%), suggesting it is viewed favourably relative to its immediate peers. It fits the profile of Deer Lodge, offering a quiet, residential setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the house too small for a small family?
While the current living area is compact, the generous lot size is a significant asset. Families who prioritize outdoor play space and the future possibility of an addition may find this a worthwhile trade-off compared to a larger home on a smaller lot.

2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
Specific finishes and the scope of the renovation should be verified with the listing agent or through a viewing. It typically indicates updated living space, but inquiries should be made about the quality, permits, and whether it includes a separate entrance or rental potential.

3. How does the assessed value relate to the likely selling price?
The assessed value for taxation purposes ($29.70k) is a municipal valuation and is typically far below market value. The more relevant figure is the recent sale price from August 2023 ($35.70k), which gives a clearer, though historical, benchmark for the home's market worth.

4. What are the implications of the detached garage?
A detached garage provides secure storage or workshop space but means accessing your vehicle involves going outdoors. It can also offer more flexibility for lot landscaping or future projects compared to an attached structure.

5. Are homes of this age expensive to maintain?
While the renovated basement suggests some updates, a home built in 1940 will likely require ongoing attention to aging components like the roof, windows, plumbing, and electrical systems. A thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition of these core elements.
