Property Overview: 42 Blenheim Avenue, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a compact, one-storey home built in 1922, located on a modestly-sized lot in the Glenwood neighbourhood. Its key appeal lies in its position as a straightforward, entry-level property within a mature community. With 800 sqft of living space and a renovated basement, it offers the essentials for comfortable, low-maintenance living. The home lacks a garage or pool, emphasizing its practical, no-frills nature.

Its greatest strength is its relative affordability and stability within its immediate context. The data shows that for both living area and assessed value, this home sits around the average for Blenheim Avenue and the wider Glenwood area, meaning it’s priced appropriately for its locale and size. It suits first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a manageable footprint in an established neighbourhood without premium costs. A thoughtful perspective is that its smaller lot and older vintage, while below city-wide averages, contribute directly to its accessibility and lower property taxes, which can be a significant long-term advantage for budget-conscious owners.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to others in Winnipeg?
The assessed value is below the city-wide average, which is typical for older, smaller homes in mature neighbourhoods. This translates to a more affordable purchase price and correspondingly lower property taxes.

2. What does the “renovated basement” include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. Buyers should inquire about the finishes, ceiling height, permits, and whether it includes a separate entrance or additional bedrooms.

3. Is the lack of a garage a major concern?
Many homes in older neighbourhoods lack garages. On-street parking is likely the norm. For some buyers, this is a trade-off for the neighbourhood’s character and established tree canopy.

4. The home is over 100 years old. What should I be aware of?
While the basement has been updated, a home of this age may have original components like plumbing, electrical, or the foundation that require inspection. Its older construction date is common for the street, but a thorough pre-purchase inspection is essential.

5. The lot is smaller than average. Is that a problem?
The land area is smaller than most lots on the street and in the city. This means less exterior maintenance and lower landscaping costs, which can be a benefit. It may limit expansion possibilities but supports a low-maintenance lifestyle.
