Highlights & common questions: 27 Buttercup Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This one-storey home at 27 Buttercup Avenue in Winnipeg's Garden City neighborhood presents a practical and grounded opportunity. With 1,100 sqft of living space, a renovated basement, and a detached garage, it sits on a slightly larger-than-average lot for the area. Built in 1961, it is notably older than many homes on its own street, which may appeal to those who appreciate the character and established nature of mature properties. The home's metrics—from living area to assessed value—consistently rank it as an average or above-average property within its immediate context, suggesting it is a solid, in-line offering for the community rather than a standout fixer-upper or premium listing. Its appeal lies in its modesty and functionality, suited for first-time homebuyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a straightforward, low-maintenance bungalow with updated essentials and room to grow outdoors.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home's age affect its condition and potential costs?
Being built in 1961 means major systems like plumbing, electrical, or the roof may be newer updates or could require attention. The renovated basement is a positive, but a thorough inspection is advised to understand the condition of the original structure and plan for future maintenance typical of a home from this era.

2. Is the lot size a significant advantage?
At over 6,000 sqft, the lot is above average for both the street and city. This offers more private outdoor space than many comparable properties, which is a valuable but less obvious asset for gardening, expansion, or simply having more distance from neighbors.

3. What does the "around average" ranking for value and size really mean?
It indicates this property is very typical for Garden City. For a buyer, this means you are unlikely to be overpaying for premium features, but you're also not finding a hidden bargain. It represents market stability, which can be a positive for long-term value without volatility.

4. The detached garage is noted—what are the implications?
A detached garage offers flexibility (e.g., for a workshop or storage separated from the house) but means dealing with winter weather when accessing your vehicle. It's a trade-off compared to the convenience of an attached garage, but some buyers prefer the separation.

5. Who would this property not suit as well?
It may not suit those seeking a modern, open-concept layout without renovation work, as the one-storey footprint from 1961 likely features more compartmentalized rooms. It's also less ideal for buyers prioritizing a move-in-ready home with all-new systems, given its age, despite the basement renovation.
