Property Overview: 161 Essar Avenue, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This one-storey home at 161 Essar Avenue in Kildonan Drive presents a practical and straightforward opportunity. Its key characteristics include 1,072 sqft of living space, a renovated basement, a detached garage, and a 5,009 sqft lot. Built in 1979, it is notably newer than many homes in the immediate area, which can be an advantage for systems and maintenance.
The appeal lies in its position as a solid, average-sized home in a mature neighbourhood. The renovated basement adds functional living space, and the property holds its own in terms of assessed value relative to its peers. It stands out for buyers seeking a home that doesn’t require immediate major updates, thanks to its more recent build date compared to the neighbourhood average. This property would suit first-time buyers, downsizers looking for single-level living, or practical investors seeking a manageable rental property. It offers a balance of space and lot size without the premium price tag of a larger or newer home, fitting well for those with a focused budget.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the property’s size compare to nearby homes?
