Property Overview: 239 Forrest Avenue, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This two-storey home on Forrest Avenue in the Jefferson neighbourhood presents a practical and updated living space. Its key features include a renovated basement and a detached garage. Built in 1980, it is a notably newer construction compared to many homes on its street and in Jefferson, which often date back to the early 20th century. This suggests potentially fewer concerns with aging infrastructure common in century-old homes.
The home’s appeal lies in its efficient size and modern relative age within a well-established area. With 1,178 sqft of living space, it offers more room than many comparable homes nearby, ranking in the top 28% on its street for size. However, the lot is compact at 2,412 sqft, meaning lower exterior maintenance but limited private yard space. This balance makes it ideal for first-time buyers, small families, or downsizers who prioritize a manageable, updated interior within a mature neighbourhood over a large garden. Its assessed value is consistent with the local area, indicating it is fairly positioned in the market without being an outlier.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the age of this home (1980) compare to others in the area?
It is significantly newer than most. On Forrest Avenue, it ranks in the top 10%, with neighbouring homes averaging a build year of 1944. This can mean more modern building materials, electrical systems, and layout.
2. What should I know about the lot size?
The land area is compact, ranking in the bottom 17% on its street. This translates to a smaller yard, which reduces maintenance but also limits potential for expansions like large decks or additions. It’s a trade-off for a lower-maintenance exterior.
3. How does the living space compare?
The living area is above average for both the immediate street and the Jefferson neighbourhood, offering more interior space than many nearby homes. This is a key advantage for buyers seeking room within this price segment.
4. Is the detached garage a standard feature here?
While the listing notes a detached garage, many older homes in Jefferson may have converted carriage houses or no garage at all. A functional, detached garage is a valuable asset in this neighbourhood.
5. Where can I find the exact historical sale price?
The provided sold price history shows a range. To obtain the precise sale price from the last transaction, you must request it via email from the site. They provide this data manually and do not use the request for unsolicited marketing.
