Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a compact, one-and-a-half storey home in Winnipeg's Dufferin Industrial area, built in 1908. With 688 square feet of living space and a 1,237 sqft lot, it is notably smaller than most homes in the city, ranking in the bottom 3% for land area. The home features a basement, but it is noted as not being renovated, and there is no garage or pool. Its most defining characteristic is its exceptionally low municipal assessed value of $10,100, which places it in the bottom 1% citywide. It last sold in July 2021 for $11,500.

The primary appeal lies in its position as one of the most affordable entry points into the Winnipeg housing market. It suits a very specific buyer: an investor looking for a low-cost rental property, a hands-on renovator seeking a minimal initial investment to build sweat equity, or someone with extremely modest space needs who prioritizes low property taxes above all else. A less obvious perspective is that its tiny lot and low value could make it a candidate for future land assembly or redevelopment in the evolving industrial-area context, though this is speculative.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the assessed value so low?
The assessed value is based on the property's market characteristics as determined by the city. The very small size of the home and lot, its age, and the condition (including an unrenovated basement) are the primary factors contributing to this valuation.

2. What does "not renovated" for the basement imply?
This typically means the basement retains its original or older finishes and systems. A buyer should expect it to be in utilitarian condition, likely suited for storage or laundry, and should budget for potential updates to moisture control, insulation, or flooring.

3. Who would this property be best for?
It is best suited for investors, very budget-conscious first-time buyers willing to live minimally and renovate over time, or buyers who see value in the potential of the location rather than the current structure.

4. How does the small lot size affect me?
It means minimal outdoor maintenance and very limited space for additions, gardening, or parking. Off-street parking would be a challenge to create. However, it also translates to lower municipal frontage fees and potentially quicker yard work.

5. The 2021 sale price was close to the assessed value. Is that normal?
For a unique property like this, it can be. In typical markets, sale prices often exceed assessed value. Here, the assessed value closely reflects the property's niche market position, where the ultra-low price is the main feature. It underscores the importance of a current market appraisal for financing or offering.
