Property Overview: 2279 Ness Avenue, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a modest, well-situated one-and-a-half storey home built in 1957 on a standard-sized lot in the Jameswood neighbourhood. Its key feature is a renovated basement, adding valuable finished living space to the 988 sqft main floor area. While the home's living space is below average for its immediate street and the city overall, its assessed value is competitively positioned, being around average for Ness Avenue and below average for the broader area, suggesting a potentially accessible entry point.
The appeal lies in its practicality and location. It represents a straightforward home in an established area, likely requiring less upkeep than a larger property. The renovated basement offers immediate utility without the need for a major project. This property would suit first-time buyers seeking a manageable footprint, downsizers looking to simplify, or pragmatic investors interested in a functional rental property. A less obvious perspective is that its "below average" size and value metrics could be an advantage for those prioritizing property tax and utility costs over sheer space, offering a more affordable total cost of ownership in a stable neighbourhood.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home's size compare to others in the area?
At 988 sqft of living area, the home is smaller than the average on Ness Avenue (~1,154 sqft) and in Winnipeg overall (~1,342 sqft). However, it is closer to the average for the wider Jameswood area (~1,059 sqft).
2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or layout. This is a key detail to clarify with the seller or listing agent to understand the quality and use of this additional space.
3. Is the assessed value a good indicator of the listing price?
Not directly. The assessed value of $26,800 is for municipal tax purposes. Market sale prices are determined by current market conditions and can be significantly higher. The data shows this assessment is around average for similar homes on Ness Avenue.
4. What are the implications of having no garage?
Buyers should plan for street parking or consider the cost and feasibility of adding a driveway or parking structure. This is a common feature in older neighbourhoods and influences both daily convenience and potential future value.
5. The home is noted as "Elite" for its year built in Jameswood. What does that mean?
This statistical ranking indicates that, within Jameswood, this 1957 build year is newer than approximately 98% of comparable properties. This suggests the immediate neighbourhood may have many older homes, making this one relatively newer in that specific context.
