Highlights & common questions: 640 Hartford Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview: 640 Hartford Avenue, Garden City, Winnipeg

This 4-level split home, built in 1963, stands out on Hartford Avenue for its generous proportions and established setting. Its primary appeal lies in offering above-average space both inside and out, presenting a solid value proposition within its neighbourhood.

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

The home’s key characteristic is its significant scale relative to local comparables. With 1,798 sqft of living space, it ranks in the top 4% on its street and the top 9% in Garden City, offering considerably more room than area averages. This is complemented by a large 6,046 sqft lot, providing ample outdoor space. A renovated basement and a detached garage add practical value. The assessed value is notably above average for the immediate area, suggesting a well-regarded property in its micro-location.

Its appeal is grounded in space and established community value. It suits buyers looking for a family-sized home in a mature neighbourhood who prioritize interior living area and yard size over a newer build. It’s a practical choice for those who see value in a home that already stands above its immediate peers in key metrics, offering room to grow without the premium of a brand-new property. A thoughtful perspective is recognizing that while the home is older, its "newer than average" ranking on its street indicates it's among the more recent builds in that specific cluster, which can be a subtle advantage for systems and layout.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s size truly compare to others?
It is substantially larger than most direct comparisons. The living area is over 600 sqft larger than the average home on Hartford Avenue and nearly 500 sqft larger than the Garden City average.

2. What does the assessed value ranking tell me?
While the citywide assessment is around average, it ranks in the top 8% within Garden City and the top 4% on its own street. This indicates the property is assessed more highly than most of its closest neighbours, often reflecting its larger size, condition, or desirability within that specific context.

3. Is the 1963 build date a concern?
The year built is above average for both the street and Garden City, meaning it is actually newer than many surrounding homes. While systems will be due for updates, it’s not among the oldest homes in the area.

4. What is the exact prior sale price?
The public data shows a sale in June 2017 in a range of $325k-$355k. For the precise sale price, you can request it via email from the listing source; they provide this detail manually.

5. What are the property’s most standout features?
The two clearest standout features are the living area (top 9% in the neighbourhood) and the lot size (top 8% on the street). These metrics highlight the property’s primary advantages: more indoor space and more land than most comparable listings nearby.
