Property Overview: 179 Imperial Avenue, Glenwood, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a solid, no-frills bungalow in Winnipeg's Glenwood neighborhood. Built in 1963, it offers 1,050 sqft of living space with a renovated basement, sitting on a standard city lot of just over 4,000 sqft. The home presents as a fundamentally average property within its immediate area when compared to peers on its street and in Glenwood, ranking consistently in the middle tiers for size, assessed value, and land area. Its appeal lies in this very steadiness—it’s a known quantity in an established community. The renovated basement adds functional living space, a key update for a home of this era.

This property would suit pragmatic first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an entry point into the Winnipeg market without major surprises. It’s for those who value a straightforward, renovated layout over standout architectural features. A thoughtful perspective is that its "average" rankings are actually a strength for the right buyer: it suggests the home is unlikely to be over-improved for the area, offering a realistic foundation for building equity through manageable, personal updates over time.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the "average" ranking for assessed value mean?
The assessed value of $33,200 is typical for similar homes on Imperial Avenue and in the Glenwood area. This suggests the property is in line with market norms for the locale, not under or over-valued compared to its direct peers.

2. Is the renovated basement a full suite?
The details confirm a renovated basement but do not specify if it is a legal suite with a separate entrance. This is a key point to verify, as it impacts rental potential and insurance.

3. How does the lot size compare city-wide?
While the lot is standard for Glenwood, it ranks below the city-wide average. This means outdoor space is adequate for the neighborhood but may be smaller than what's found in newer suburban developments.

4. The home was built in 1963. What should I be aware of?
While newer than many area homes, a home from this era may still have original components like plumbing, electrical, or the roof nearing the end of their service life. A thorough inspection is advised.

5. Why is there a range for the last sold price?
The exact sale price from July 2019 is not publicly listed. The provided range ($26.5k - $29.5k) is an estimate from public data. You can request the exact price from the site, which they provide manually via email.
