Property Overview
This single-storey home at 7 Dafoe Boulevard in Winnipeg's Garden City neighbourhood presents a practical, no-frills opportunity. Built in 1958, its key characteristics include a renovated basement, a detached garage, and a living area of approximately 1,059 sq. ft. on a notably spacious 6,051 sq. ft. lot. The data suggests it is a home of contrasts: its living space and assessed value are below average for its immediate street and area, yet its lot size is above average citywide. This creates a distinct value proposition centered on land potential over interior size.
Its appeal lies in its solid foundation and the possibilities that come with a larger, mature lot in an established area. It suits first-time buyers or practical downsizers looking for an affordable entry into the Winnipeg market, particularly those who value outdoor space for gardening, expansion, or simply room to breathe. It would also appeal to value-oriented investors or handy buyers comfortable with a home that offers good "bones" and a renovated basement, but where future updates to the main living areas could add significant value.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the lot size a significant advantage?
Yes. At over 6,000 sq. ft., the lot is larger than the city average. This is a less obvious but valuable asset, offering more privacy, green space, and future potential than many newer properties.
2. How does the home's size compare to others?
At 1,059 sq. ft., the living area is modest and ranks below average for both Dafoe Boulevard and the wider Garden City area. Buyers should prioritize efficient use of space and consider the finished basement as valuable additional functional area.
3. What does the assessed value indicate?
The assessed value is below average for the street and neighbourhood. This can sometimes reflect the home's modest size and era, but it's important to note that assessed value for tax purposes does not always directly correlate with current market value.
4. What is the neighbourhood like?
Garden City is a mature, established neighbourhood in North Winnipeg. It typically offers a mix of residential housing, local amenities, and parks, appealing to those seeking a community-focused setting without a downtown price tag.
5. Who should consider this property?
This home is best for buyers with a practical mindset. It's suited for those who see potential in a larger lot and a solid, renovated basement, and who are either comfortable with a cozy main footprint or have plans to renovate or expand over time. It is likely less suited for those seeking a large, move-in-ready interior without future projects.
