Property Overview: 259 Hartford Avenue, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home on Hartford Avenue in the Jefferson neighbourhood offers a practical and updated living space. Its key feature is a recently renovated basement, adding valuable finished square footage to the 1,412 sqft main living area. Built in 1962, it is newer than many homes in Jefferson, which can mean fewer concerns with aging core components. The home sits on a modest 3,366 sqft lot, which translates to less yard maintenance—a potential benefit for those seeking a low-upkeep property.

The appeal lies in its above-average interior space for the immediate area and its move-in-ready condition due to the basement renovation. It suits first-time homebuyers or downsizers looking for a manageable, updated property without a large garden to care for. The lack of a garage and pool keeps the focus and cost on the living space itself. A thoughtful perspective is that its assessed value is modest relative to the city-wide average, which could indicate a lower property tax burden, while its living space ranks highly within its own community, offering good value within the local market.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the living space compare to nearby homes?
At 1,412 sqft, this home offers more living area than approximately 93% of comparable properties in the Jefferson neighbourhood, making it a spacious option for the area.

2. What is the significance of the assessed value?
The assessed value is around average for Jefferson but below the city-wide average. This often correlates with property taxes, so they may be proportionally lower than in some other Winnipeg areas.

3. Is the smaller lot size a disadvantage?
While the lot is below average in size for the street and city, it requires less maintenance. This can be a positive for buyers who prefer spending less time on yard work or who prioritize indoor living space.

4. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the finish. A viewing is essential to determine the quality, layout, and permitted status of the renovation.

5. How can I find out the exact historical sale price?
The listed sale price range is based on public data. To obtain the exact figure from the last recorded sale, you must request it directly via the email service provided on the listing page.
