Property Overview: 281 St Anthony Avenue, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a compact, one-storey home in Winnipeg's Jefferson neighbourhood, built in 1947. With 728 sqft of living space, it is notably smaller than most area homes, placing it in the top 15% for compact size city-wide. This characteristic defines its core appeal: it is a manageable, low-maintenance property. The renovated basement adds functional living space, and the lot size of approximately 4,695 sqft is very typical for the street and area, offering decent outdoor space relative to the home's footprint.
Its appeal lies in efficiency and affordability. The assessed value is consistent with the immediate area, suggesting a stable, entry-level price point in the market. It last sold in 2020, and its value metrics have remained aligned with neighbourhood averages since. This isn't a luxury property; it's a practical one. It would suit first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a straightforward, renovate-and-hold rental. The home offers a chance for a modest, no-frills foothold in the market without the upkeep of a larger house, making it a strategic choice over a glamorous one.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the house unusually small?
Yes, for the Jefferson area. At 728 sqft, the living area is below the average for both the street and the wider neighbourhood. This makes it one of the more compact options available, which translates to lower maintenance and utility costs.
2. How does the assessed value compare?
The assessed value is very average for St Anthony Avenue and the Jefferson area, but below the city-wide average. This indicates the property is priced typically for its specific location, not the broader Winnipeg market.
3. What is the significance of the renovated basement?
Given the modest main-floor square footage, the renovated basement is a key feature. It effectively expands the usable living area, which is crucial for making this compact home functional for daily life.
4. What type of neighbourhood is Jefferson?
The provided data shows homes here, including this one, are of a similar vintage (1940s) and assessed value range. This suggests a mature, established neighbourhood with consistent, modestly-valued properties rather than one with high renovation turnover or dramatic value swings.
5. How current is the price history?
The last recorded sale was in May 2020. For the exact sold price and any potential unlisted sales after that date, you need to request the information directly via the provided email service, as only a price range is publicly displayed.
