Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a compact, one-storey home built in 1921, presenting a straightforward opportunity in Winnipeg’s Glenwood neighborhood. With 696 square feet of living space and an unfinished basement, it is notably smaller than most homes in the city, ranking in the bottom 20% for size. The assessed value is significantly below city-wide averages, reflecting its modest scale and unrenovated condition. The lot, at just under 3,700 square feet, is also smaller than typical but offers manageable outdoor space.

The primary appeal lies in its affordability and simplicity. It suits a specific buyer: someone seeking a minimal footprint, a first-time buyer comfortable with a project, or an investor looking for a rental property with lower entry costs. Its smaller size means lower utility costs and less maintenance. A thoughtful perspective is that this property represents a "blank slate" with historical character (105 years old) in an established area, offering a chance to customize without the premium of a recently updated home. It’s not for those needing ample space, but for those who value location and potential over immediate move-in finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the assessed value so much lower than the city-wide average?
The assessed value is based on the home's specific characteristics—its smaller size, age, and unrenovated condition—compared to the broader market, which includes larger, updated, and newer homes.

2. What does the ranking (e.g., "Top 82%") for Living Area mean?
It means this home's living area is larger than only 82% of comparable homes in its immediate area. In simpler terms, it is in the smaller 18% of homes on its street, making it a compact option.

3. Is the unfinished basement included in the living area square footage?
No. The reported 696 sqft living area is for the main above-ground floor only. The basement is additional, unfinished space.

4. What are the potential downsides of a home built in 1921?
While offering charm, a home of this age may have older building materials, electrical, plumbing, and insulation systems. A thorough inspection is essential to understand any needed updates or repairs.

5. How reliable are the past sold price ranges shown?
The ranges are based on available public data. For the exact historical sold price, you must request it directly via the provided email service, which supplies verified figures.
