Property Overview: 871 Beach Avenue, East Elmwood, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This bi-level home at 871 Beach Avenue presents a practical opportunity in Winnipeg's East Elmwood neighborhood. Its key characteristic is its modern build date (1989), making it notably newer than most homes on its street and in the broader area. The house features 851 sqft of living space, an unrenovated basement, and a detached garage on a 3,303 sqft lot.

The appeal lies in its relative modernity within an established neighborhood, potentially offering fewer immediate maintenance concerns compared to older peers. With an assessed value that is average for the immediate area but below the city-wide average, it represents a more accessible entry point into homeownership. The property would suit first-time buyers or practical investors looking for a straightforward, no-frills home where value is derived more from the building's age and fundamentals than from lot size or high-end finishes. It’s a home for those who prioritize a newer structure in a convenient location over expansive square footage or a large yard.
