Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a classic two-storey home built in 1910, presenting a solid opportunity in Winnipeg's Glenelm neighbourhood. Its key characteristic is balance: with 1,034 sqft of living space, it sits comfortably within the average range for the area, making it a manageable size. The lot size of 3,076 sqft is notably above average for Cobourg Avenue itself, offering more outdoor space than many immediate neighbours—a valuable asset in an established community. The home features a detached garage and an unrenovated basement, indicating it's a genuine fixer-upper or blank canvas.

The appeal lies in its positioning as an entry-point into a character neighbourhood. The assessed value is modest relative to the wider city, suggesting potential affordability. It suits a practical, hands-on buyer—perhaps a first-time homeowner comfortable with gradual updates, or an investor looking for a rental property in a central location. The data shows it’s not the newest or largest home, but its value is grounded in its lot size and neighbourhood context. A thoughtful perspective is recognizing that an older, unrenovated home on a good-sized lot in a stable area often holds more long-term potential than a fully modernized home on a tiny lot, as the land provides inherent value and the improvements can be tailored to the owner's taste and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does "unrenovated basement" typically mean?
It generally indicates the basement is in original or functional condition, but not modernized. Expect basic finishes, older mechanical systems (like the furnace or wiring), and potential for moisture management or insulation upgrades. It represents both a current cost-saver and a future project opportunity.

2. How significant is the 1910 build date?
Very significant. Homes from this era were built with durable materials like true-dimension lumber and plaster, but they also come with expectations. Updating electrical, plumbing, and insulation to modern standards is a common and important consideration. The charm comes with a responsibility for diligent maintenance.

3. The assessed value seems low compared to city averages. Why?
Municipal assessed value for taxation purposes often lags behind market value, especially in older neighbourhoods undergoing change. A low assessment can mean lower property taxes, but the eventual sale price is determined by the market, not this assessment.

4. Is the above-average lot size a major advantage?
In an established neighbourhood where lots are often subdivided, a larger lot is a tangible asset. It provides more privacy, yard space, and potential for additions, gardens, or parking. It's a feature that cannot be replicated or added later.

5. Based on the sold price history, has this property appreciated?
The data shows a sale in the $14.5k-$17.5k range in 2016 and a sale in the $19.5k-$22.5k range in 2017. This indicates an increase over that one-year period, but market conditions have evolved since. For a precise current valuation and understanding of longer-term trends, consulting a local real estate professional is essential.
