Property Overview

This one-and-a-half storey home on Cobourg Avenue in Glenelm presents a classic Winnipeg character property built in 1923. Its key appeal lies in its established neighbourhood setting and a solid, above-average assessed value for the local area. With 1,098 sqft of living space and a detached garage, it fits comfortably within the norms for Glenelm. The unrenovated basement indicates potential for customization or signals a priority for buyers comfortable with a project. The lot, while smaller than the city average, is typical for the street.

This home would suit a first-time buyer or an investor looking for a character home in a mature neighbourhood without a premium price tag. It’s also a match for those who value a stable, long-established community over a brand-new build. A thoughtful perspective is that its higher assessed value relative to the immediate area could suggest it’s been maintained or viewed more favorably than some direct neighbors, yet its below-average citywide assessment highlights Glenelm’s relative affordability within Winnipeg.


Frequently Asked Questions

What does "above average assessed value for the street" actually mean?
It means the city’s assessment for this home is higher than most others on Cobourg Avenue. This can sometimes reflect updates, a favorable layout, or lot attributes, but it’s wise to verify this with a current condition inspection.

Is the unrenovated basement a major concern?
Not necessarily, but it is a key factor. It means the mechanical systems and foundation are original or older, and the space is in functional but not modernized condition. Budgeting for eventual updates or inspections is prudent.

How does the lot size affect living here?
At just under 3,000 sqft, the lot is manageable for low-maintenance outdoor living but offers limited space for major expansions or extensive landscaping compared to newer suburban lots.

The home has sold three times since 2017. Is that a red flag?
Frequent sales can be due to many factors, including investment flips, life changes, or the area’s appeal to first-time buyers who move on. Reviewing the exact sale price history (available by request) can provide clearer context.

What is Glenelm like as a neighbourhood?
Glenelm is a mature, central neighbourhood known for its tree-lined streets and character homes. It offers a sense of established community and convenience, typically attracting buyers looking for charm and location over modern square footage.
