Property Overview: 247 Smithfield Avenue, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated one-storey home in Jefferson offers a practical and spacious layout on a generous lot. Its key features include 1,304 sqft of living space and a recently renovated basement, adding valuable functional area. The property stands out in its immediate neighborhood, ranking above average for living space, lot size (5,934 sqft), and year built (1950) compared to other homes on Smithfield Avenue and in the Jefferson area. This suggests a home that is both larger and slightly newer than many of its local peers. The detached garage provides flexible storage or workshop space.

The appeal lies in its established, quiet neighborhood setting combined with above-average roominess for the area. It represents a solid, move-in-ready option that avoids the premium of a brand-new build while offering more space than many comparable older homes. It would suit first-time buyers seeking a manageable single-level layout, downsizers looking for a comfortable home without stairs, or practical investors attracted to a property with recent updates (like the basement) in a stable area.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to the wider Winnipeg market?
While the home ranks above average for its immediate street and neighborhood in several categories, its assessed value and living area are around the city-wide average. This indicates you are getting a property that is a standout for Jefferson, offering good local value without paying an inner-city or newer suburb premium.

2. What does the sold price history indicate?
The home sold recently (December 2024) for between $345,000 and $375,000. This final sale price significantly exceeded its assessed value, which is common in active markets. It demonstrates strong recent buyer demand for this specific property.

3. Is the 1950 build year a concern?
The data shows this home is actually newer than most on its street and in Jefferson. While systems like plumbing or electrical may still need evaluation, its 1950 construction is a relative advantage in this context, potentially meaning fewer updates than older neighboring homes.

4. What is the potential of the lot size?
At nearly 6,000 sqft, the lot is larger than most in Jefferson. This offers valuable outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or future additions like a deck or shed, which can be a rarity in established neighborhoods.

5. How can I find out the exact final sold price?
The precise sale price is not publicly listed in the detail history. You can request it directly via the "Get exact sold price history" email option on this page. The service provides the accurate figure manually at no cost and without marketing spam.
