Property Overview: 254 Garton Avenue, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This one-storey home in Inkster Gardens is a practical property that stands out for its generous lot size. Built in 1984, it offers 1,289 sqft of living space, which is notably above average for its immediate street. The recently renovated basement adds functional living area. While the home lacks a garage, its assessed value is positioned solidly in the middle range for the area, suggesting a manageable entry point into the market.
The primary appeal lies in its land. The 6,388 sqft lot ranks well above average for both the street and the wider neighbourhood, offering significant outdoor space that is increasingly rare. This makes it a compelling option for buyers seeking room for gardening, play, or future expansion. The home suits first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a single-level layout without a premium price tag, and it particularly appeals to those who value private outdoor space over interior square footage or attached parking. A thoughtful perspective is that its "around average" assessments in many categories indicate a stable, no-surprises property in its community, which can be an advantage for long-term value.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size compare to typical city properties?
The lot is 6,388 sqft, which places it in the top 24% citywide, meaning it's significantly larger than most residential lots in Winnipeg.
2. What is the significance of the "above average" living area ranking for the street?
With 1,289 sqft, this home ranks in the top 24% on Garton Avenue for living space. This indicates it is roomier than most direct neighbours, whose comparable homes average about 1,134 sqft.
3. The assessed value seems low compared to some nearby sales. Why?
Assessed value for tax purposes is not the same as market value. This home's assessment is consistent with the average on its street. Nearby properties with higher assessments or sale prices often differ in features, condition, or lot specifics.
4. Are there any recent sales history details for this exact address?
Exact sold prices are available upon request. Public data indicates a sale occurred in August 2020 within a range of $29.5k to $32.5k.
5. What are the implications of the home having no garage?
Buyers should budget for alternative parking solutions and consider the impact of vehicle warming during Winnipeg winters. However, the larger lot may provide space to add a shed or future parking structure, subject to local bylaws.
