Property Overview: 880 Jefferson Avenue, Garden City, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a classic, single-storey home built in 1959, offering a practical and straightforward living space. With 1,040 sqft of living area and a recently renovated basement, it presents a solid, move-in-ready foundation. The lot is a notable feature at over 5,250 sqft, providing ample outdoor space that is larger than many in the immediate area—a valuable asset for gardening, play, or future expansion. A detached garage adds functional storage or workshop potential.

Its primary appeal lies in its balance and modesty. The home doesn’t top the charts in size or assessed value, but it consistently ranks as "around average" or better across key metrics for its street and the city, suggesting a reliable, no-surprises property in a stable neighbourhood. The renovated basement adds modern utility without the premium of a fully updated main floor. It would suit first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into the market, practical downsizers looking for single-level living without a tiny lot, or value-focused investors attracted by the solid fundamentals and rental demand in Garden City. A thoughtful perspective is that this home represents the "quiet middle" of the market—not a standout fixer-upper or a luxury showpiece, but a dependable and spacious property where the value is in the land and the potential for gradual, personal customization.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to the area?
The home’s assessed value is below the Garden City neighbourhood average but ranks around the city-wide average. This suggests it is priced accessibly within its own community while being aligned with broader Winnipeg market norms.

2. What is the significance of the lot size?
At 5,252 sqft, the lot is larger than most on Jefferson Avenue and in Garden City. This is a key advantage, offering more private outdoor space than neighbouring properties and providing flexibility for additions, landscaping, or recreational use.

3. What can you tell me about the renovation history?
The listing confirms the basement has been renovated. For specifics on the quality, scope, permits, or the condition of major systems (roof, wiring, plumbing), a professional home inspection is strongly recommended.

4. Is the detached garage a standard feature for the area?
While not uncommon, a detached garage is a practical asset. It provides valuable storage or workshop space separate from the house, which can be a preference for many homeowners in established neighbourhoods.

5. Where can I find exact historical sale prices?
The provided sold price ranges are estimates from public data. To obtain the precise sale history, you must request it directly via the email tool on the listing page. The service is manual but committed to providing accurate figures without marketing spam.
