Property Summary: 639 Beaverbrook Street, Winnipeg

Section 1: Overview & Appeal

This two-storey home on a standard residential lot in the J.B. Mitchell neighbourhood presents a practical, move-in-ready opportunity. Its key characteristic is a renovated basement, adding valuable finished living space to the 1,312 sqft footprint. The home sits above average for living space within its immediate area and neighbourhood, offering more room than many comparable properties. With a detached garage and a build year of 1955, it represents a classic Winnipeg housing stock that has been partially updated.

The appeal lies in its relative size advantage and the move-in convenience of a renovated lower level. It suits first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable, established home without a major project, and who value the flexibility of a detached garage. A thoughtful perspective is that while the land size is average for the street, it is below average for the wider J.B. Mitchell area, suggesting a more compact, low-maintenance yard—a potential benefit for some, but a consideration for those wanting more outdoor space. The assessed value history indicates stable, modest growth in line with its surroundings, pointing to a reliable, unpretentious investment in a mature community.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or layout. A viewing is essential to assess the quality of the renovation, ceiling height, and whether it includes a legal secondary suite or is simply finished living space.

2. How does the property rank compared to others?
The home ranks above average for living space on its street and in J.B. Mitchell. Its assessed value and land size are generally around the average mark for the area, with the lot size being somewhat smaller than the neighbourhood typical.

3. What is the exact past sale price?
The public record shows a sale in August 2021 in a range of $355k-$385k. The exact price is not publicly listed, but the listing service offers to provide it via email upon request.

4. What are the typical maintenance considerations for a 1955 home?
While the basement is updated, a home of this age may have original or aging core components. Buyers should pay particular attention to the roof, windows, plumbing, electrical systems, and the foundation during an inspection.

5. Is the detached garage insulated or heated?
The listing does not specify. This would be an important point of clarification for buyers intending to use the garage as a workshop or for vehicle storage year-round.
