Property Summary: 53 Imperial Avenue, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This one-storey home in Glenwood is a compact, character property built in 1932, sitting on a standard city lot. Its primary appeal lies in its strong value proposition within its immediate area. While its 822 sqft living space is modest compared to the city-wide average, it ranks above average for the neighbourhood in terms of assessed value, suggesting it is a well-regarded property on its street. A key feature is the renovated basement, which adds functional living space. The home suits first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable, single-level footprint in an established community. It also appeals to value-focused buyers who prioritize a home's standing and investment potential within its specific local context over its raw square footage compared to the entire city. The detached garage offers flexibility for parking or storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home's size compare to others nearby?
At 822 sqft, the living area is slightly below the average for Glenwood (~1,015 sqft) but is closer to the average for homes directly on Imperial Avenue (~999 sqft). It offers a more compact layout typical of its era.

2. What does the "above average" assessed value for the street indicate?
The assessed value is higher than many comparable homes on Imperial Avenue and in Glenwood. This often reflects factors like the renovated basement, lot desirability, or overall condition, suggesting the property is considered a stronger asset within its local market.

3. Is the older build year (1932) a concern?
The home is older than most on its street and in the city. This implies potential for character details but also means buyers should pay particular attention to the condition of major aging components like the roof, plumbing, and wiring during an inspection.

4. What is the exact prior sale price?
The public data shows a sale in June 2017 for an estimated range. For the precise sale price, you can request it directly via the provided email service on the listing page.

5. Who might this property not suit?
It may not be ideal for those needing significant space or very modern, open layouts. The smaller, older footprint requires efficient use of space. Buyers seeking a home that ranks above the city-wide average in size would likely find this property too compact.
