Highlights & common questions: 12 Richardson Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview

12 Richardson Avenue is a compact, one-storey home in Winnipeg's Garden City neighborhood. Built in 1957, it features 999 sqft of living space, a renovated basement, and a detached garage on a roughly 6,000 sqft lot. Recent sales data shows activity in 2022 and 2023.

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home’s primary appeal lies in its efficiency and lot size within a well-established area. The living space is notably compact, ranking in the top 98% for the street (meaning it's among the smallest), which suggests a low-maintenance interior footprint. This is balanced by an above-average lot size city-wide, offering valuable outdoor space. The home’s assessed value is strong for its immediate street, indicating it may be in better condition or have more desirable features than its closest neighbors. The renovated basement adds functional living space.

It would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an affordable entry into a mature neighborhood without a large house to maintain. The generous lot is a key asset, appealing to those who value garden space, privacy, or future expansion potential more than interior square footage. It’s a practical choice for a buyer who sees the land as the long-term value and the house as a comfortable, efficient starting point.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the house in need of major updates?
While specific conditions aren't listed, the home has a renovated basement and its assessed value is above the street average, suggesting it is likely in decent relative condition for its age and market.

2. Why is the living area significantly smaller than area averages?
This is a characteristic of the home. At 999 sqft, it is smaller than most homes on its street, in Garden City, and across Winnipeg, which is reflected in its rankings. This contributes to its likely lower price point and manageable scale.

3. What does the sold price history indicate?
The home sold in 2022 and again in 2023. The price range increased between those sales, which could reflect the renovated basement, market trends, or specific property improvements. For exact sold prices, you must request the information via email from the listing source.

4. Is the detached garage in good condition?
The listing confirms a detached garage exists but does not specify its condition. This would be a key point for a viewing or inquiry with the seller.

5. How does the property’s value compare?
Its assessed value is above average for Richardson Avenue itself but aligns more closely with the Garden City and city-wide averages. This suggests the property holds its value well within its immediate context, potentially due to the lot size and updates.
