Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home on Hartford Avenue in the Jefferson neighborhood presents a solid, above-average offering for its immediate area. Its primary appeal lies in its generous living space. At 1,406 sqft, it ranks in the top 9% of homes on its street and in Jefferson, providing significantly more room than local averages. This is complemented by a renovated basement, adding functional living area, and a detached garage. The lot is a standard city size, offering typical outdoor space.

The home suits practical buyers looking for move-in readiness with room to grow, without the premium of a brand-new build. Its assessed value is strong for the neighborhood, suggesting good standing relative to nearby properties. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home is newer than many in Winnipeg, it is of a vintage where major components may need future evaluation, balanced by the potential for established landscaping and mature community character. It’s an ideal fit for a young family or value-focused buyer seeking a spacious interior in a settled area, who prioritizes functional space over a massive yard or ultra-modern features.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the living space truly compare?
At 1,406 sqft, this home is notably larger than most in Jefferson and on its street, where comparable averages are around 1,091 sqft and 1,029 sqft, respectively. It offers a size advantage locally, while being close to the Winnipeg citywide average.

2. What does the assessed value indicate?
The assessed value of $33,900 is above the local street and neighborhood averages, placing it in the top 24% and 11% respectively. This typically reflects the property's relative size, condition, and standing compared to its immediate peers.

3. What is the significance of the renovated basement?
A renovated basement adds immediate functional living area without the need for a project. It’s important to understand the scope, quality, and whether permits were obtained for the work.

4. Are there any insights from past sale data?
The home sold previously in mid-2016. The provided price range from that sale can offer a historical benchmark for market trends on this street, but current value is driven by today's market conditions.

5. What are the considerations with a detached garage?
A detached garage provides flexible storage or workshop space but means navigating outdoors to access your vehicle. It’s a valuable feature, but different from the convenience of an attached garage.
