Property Summary: 285 Hartford Avenue, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a compact, one-storey home built in 1955, situated on a standard-sized lot in the Jefferson neighbourhood. Its key feature is a renovated basement, adding valuable finished space to the 832 sqft main floor. The home has a detached garage. Market data indicates its living area is modest compared to most local and city-wide homes, but its assessed value is consistent with the immediate area. Its appeal lies in its practicality and relative affordability within the Winnipeg market. It represents a straightforward, lower-maintenance property with the added benefit of a modernized lower level.
This home would suit first-time buyers seeking an entry point into homeownership, or downsizers looking for a manageable property without a large yard or complex upkeep. Investors may also see value in its stable, average assessment for the street and its potential as a rental property. A thoughtful perspective is that while the house itself is smaller, its "around average" standing on its own street for value and land size suggests it fits comfortably within a stable, established community context, which can be more important than city-wide comparisons.
