Property Overview: 83 Rochester Avenue, Fort Richmond, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1975 bi-level home at 83 Rochester Avenue presents a practical opportunity in Winnipeg's Fort Richmond neighborhood. Its key characteristic is its efficient, below-average living space (963 sq ft), which is balanced by an above-average city-wide lot size (6,487 sq ft). The home features a renovated basement and an attached garage.

The primary appeal lies in its value-oriented entry point into a stable, well-established area. While the interior space is compact, the generous lot offers clear potential for expansion, gardening, or outdoor living—a trade-off that can be advantageous for the right buyer. The property’s recent sale history shows appreciable growth, and its assessed value sits around the neighborhood average, suggesting it’s priced in line with local expectations without a premium for size.

This home would best suit first-time buyers, downsizers, or pragmatic investors seeking a manageable footprint with a low-maintenance interior and land in reserve for the future. It’s for those who prioritize lot potential over immediate square footage and view the cozy living area as an opportunity for efficient, thoughtful living rather than a limitation.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the living area too small for a family?
It depends on the family's needs. While below average in size, the bi-level layout with a renovated basement can create distinct living zones. The generous lot provides crucial "overflow" space for children and entertaining.

2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. A viewing is essential to determine the finish quality, room layouts, and whether it includes a legal suite or additional bedrooms.

3. How does the lot size compare to others?
The lot is a standout feature. It's larger than the city-wide average, offering more private outdoor space than many newer properties. This is a key asset for future enjoyment or potential expansion.

4. Has the property's value increased?
Based on available sale data, the home sold for approximately $31.5k–$34.5k in 2018 and $46.5k–$49.5k in 2022, indicating a strong upward trend in value over that period.

5. What are the immediate costs or projects?
As a home from 1975, a thorough inspection is advised to assess the condition of major aging components like the roof, windows, and HVAC systems, even though the basement has been updated.
