Highlights & common questions: 785 Hector Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview

785 Hector Avenue is a compact, one-and-a-half storey home built in 1947, situated in Winnipeg's Ebby-Wentworth neighbourhood. With 988 square feet of living space and a 4,375 sqft lot, it presents a straightforward, no-frills residential opportunity. Its appeal lies in its relative affordability and efficient scale, offering a manageable footprint in a mature community. The home lacks a basement, pool, and garage, which simplifies maintenance but requires thoughtful consideration for storage and utility needs.

This property would suit a first-time buyer, an investor, or someone looking to downsize into a modest, single-level living space. It's a practical choice for those prioritizing location and lot size over square footage or modern amenities. A less obvious perspective is that the absence of a basement could be a benefit for those concerned about moisture issues common in older Winnipeg homes, though it does limit expansion potential. The lot size is notably above average for Ebby-Wentworth, offering valuable outdoor space that is rare for homes in this price bracket.


Frequently Asked Questions

What does "one-and-a-half storey" mean for this home?
Typically, this style features a main floor with principal rooms and a second floor under sloped ceilings, often containing bedrooms. Given the modest total square footage, the upper level is likely cozy, suited for bedrooms or a small office.

How does the lack of a basement impact living here?
It means all mechanical systems (furnace, water heater) and utilities are on the main living level, which can simplify access for repairs. However, it eliminates traditional storage and laundry space, so planning for shed storage or main-floor laundry solutions will be necessary.

The assessed value seems very low compared to the last sale price. Why?
Municipal assessed value for tax purposes is often significantly lower than market value and is not a direct indicator of a home's current selling price. The last known sale was in 2016 for $220k, which is a more relevant historical benchmark.

Is the lot size a significant feature?
Yes. The land area is well above the neighbourhood average, which is a key asset. This provides more private outdoor space than many nearby properties and could be a long-term advantage for gardening, expansion, or simply enjoying a larger yard.

What should I consider about the home's age?
Built in 1947, the home is older than most on its street. Prospective buyers should budget for potential updates to major systems like wiring, plumbing, or windows, and consider a thorough inspection to understand the condition of the original structure and materials.
