Property Overview: 616 Renfrew Street, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This one-storey home on a large 7,538 sqft lot presents a solid opportunity in Winnipeg's J.B. Mitchell neighbourhood. Built in 1956, its key appeal lies in its generous land size, which ranks well above average for both the immediate street and the wider city. The 1,261 sqft living area is also notably spacious compared to most similar homes nearby. The property features a detached garage and a basement that is noted as being unrenovated.
Its value is grounded in space and potential. The lot offers room for expansion, gardening, or outdoor living—a relative rarity. The home itself is positioned as a comfortable, sizeable blank canvas. It would suit a practical buyer looking for a primary residence with room to grow, or an investor comfortable with a property that may require updates. The assessed value is consistent with the area, suggesting a fair market entry point. It’s a home for those who prioritize land and interior space over modern finishes, seeing the basement and overall condition as a chance to add value over time.
