Property Overview & Appeal

This two-storey home at 16 Essex Avenue in Winnipeg's Glenwood neighbourhood is a modern property built in 2021, offering a turn-key living experience. Its key characteristic is its standout newness and above-average size for the immediate area. With 1,488 sqft of living space, it ranks in the top 3% of homes on Essex Avenue for size and is significantly larger than the typical Glenwood home. It features a renovated basement, adding to its functional space.

The primary appeal lies in its modern construction, which means minimal immediate maintenance and updated building standards, a rarity in this established area. It suits buyers looking for a move-in-ready home who want the space of a house without the renovation projects common in older properties.

The property’s elite assessed value ranking suggests it is seen as a premium asset on its street, appealing to value-conscious buyers.
