Highlights & common questions: 236 Semple Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview

236 Semple Avenue is a compact, one-storey home in Winnipeg's Jefferson neighbourhood. Built in 1911, its 779 sqft of living space sits on a 3,093 sqft lot and features a renovated basement and a detached garage. The home’s key metrics—living area, land size, and assessed value—are consistently below the averages for its street, neighbourhood, and the wider city, positioning it as an accessible entry point into the market.

Its primary appeal lies in its affordability and practicality. The renovated basement adds functional space, and the detached garage offers valuable storage or workshop potential. This property would suit first-time buyers, investors looking for a rental property, or downsizers seeking a manageable home without major renovation needs. A thoughtful perspective is that its smaller scale can mean lower utility costs and less maintenance, offering a simpler, more efficient lifestyle. Its established location may also provide a sense of community often found in long-standing neighbourhoods.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this a small house compared to others in the area?
Yes. At 779 sqft, the living area is below average for Semple Avenue, the Jefferson area, and Winnipeg overall. It's a compact, efficiently sized home.

2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finishes or layout. This would be a key detail to clarify with the seller or listing agent.

3. How is the assessed value so much lower than the city-wide average?
The assessed value of $20,600 is for tax purposes and reflects the home's age, size, and market position. It is significantly below the city-wide average, which is consistent with the home's below-average metrics across the board.

4. What is the potential for future expansion or adding value?
The lot size is also below average, which may limit possibilities for large additions. However, maximizing the interior layout and the renovated basement could enhance livability. The detached garage could also be a value-add if updated or utilized creatively.

5. The home was last sold in 2020. What can the price history tell me?
Public data shows a sale in July 2020 for an estimated range of $13.5k to $16.5k. For the exact historical sold price, you must request it directly from the listing service via email, as noted on the detail page.
