Property Overview: 147 Leighton Avenue, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This one-storey home on a nearly 5,000 sqft lot presents a practical opportunity in Winnipeg's Kildonan Drive area. Its key characteristic is its modest, efficient size at 861 sqft of living space, which is below average for the local area. This isn't a sprawling home, but it offers a renovated basement and a detached garage. The assessed value is notably reasonable compared to city-wide averages, suggesting a potentially accessible entry point into the market.

The appeal lies in its straightforward, manageable footprint. It would suit a first-time buyer, an investor, or someone looking to downsize who prioritizes a lower tax assessment and a yard of average size over extensive interior square footage. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home itself is smaller and older (built in 1921), its lot size is on par with the immediate street, offering standard outdoor space in a neighborhood where lots are generally smaller than the wider area. It’s a property that represents the basics: shelter, some outdoor room, and renovation potential, without the premium for excess space.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the house particularly small compared to its neighbors?
Yes. The living area ranks in the bottom 15% on its own street and in the Kildonan Drive area, meaning most comparable nearby homes are larger.

2. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms a renovated basement but does not specify the scope. This is a key detail to clarify with the seller or agent regarding the finishes, permits, and intended use (e.g., additional living space, suite potential).

3. How does the assessed value affect property taxes?
With an assessed value significantly below both the area and city-wide averages for comparable homes, this property likely carries a relatively lower municipal tax burden, which is a notable ongoing cost advantage.

4. What is the significance of the sold price history showing a range?
The listed sold price range (e.g., $28.5k–$31.5k for 1/2024) is an estimate from public data. To understand the exact market value it achieved, you must request the precise figure from the site, as it is not publicly recorded in detail.

5. Are homes on this street typically older?
Yes. With a build year of 1921, this home is older than most on Leighton Avenue, where the average comparable home was built around 1946. This suggests a street with character homes, and buyers should budget for age-related maintenance.
