Property Summary: 659 Elmhurst Road, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a substantial, character-filled home in the Elmhurst neighborhood, built in 1912. Its primary appeal lies in offering generous space and vintage charm on a large lot. With over 2,180 sqft of living space, it ranks in the top 6% of Winnipeg homes for size, providing ample room for a growing family or those who value spacious interiors. The home sits on a 7,199 sqft lot and features a finished basement and a split garage.
Its charm is balanced by practicality. While its age places it in the oldest percentile for the area, this also means it possesses architectural character often missing in newer builds. The property suits buyers who prioritize space and lot size over modern finishes, and who are prepared for the maintenance or thoughtful updating that comes with a century-old home. It’s an ideal canvas for someone who appreciates classic construction and has a vision to blend historic charm with modern living. The strong rankings for living space and lot size suggest it’s a competitively spacious property in a well-established community.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does "One & 1/2 Storey" architecture mean?
This typically describes a home with a full main floor and a second floor where the roofline slopes into the walls, creating cozy, character-filled bedrooms with potentially sloped ceilings. It's a classic Winnipeg design.
2. The assessment value seems lower than expected for the size. Why?
Municipal assessments are for tax purposes and often lag behind market values, especially for older, character homes with unique features and large lots. The market price is determined by current buyer demand.
3. Is a 114-year-old home a concern?
It represents both character and responsibility. While the structure has proven its durability, buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance and consider a thorough inspection focusing on foundational integrity, wiring, plumbing, and insulation to understand any needed updates.
4. Who is responsible for verifying the exact property boundaries?
The listed lot size is informative, but for any construction (like fences or additions), a buyer must commission a new survey from a licensed surveyor to establish legal boundaries.
5. The neighborhood rankings for "Value" seem low. What does that indicate?
This metric is based on the municipal assessment relative to other homes. It often suggests that similar-sized or newer homes in the immediate area have higher assessed values. For a buyer, it can highlight that this property may offer more square footage or land for the price compared to some neighbors.
