Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated one-storey home in King Edward offers a practical blend of character and opportunity. Built in 1929, its primary appeal lies in its generous, above-average lot size for the neighbourhood (4,696 sqft) and a recently renovated basement, providing immediate usable space. The living area (916 sqft) is comfortably sized for the street and local area, though more compact than the citywide average. A detached garage adds functional value.

The home’s assessed value positions it as a more accessible entry point within its immediate context, suggesting potential for value appreciation. It particularly suits first-time buyers or practical investors seeking a solid footprint in a central neighbourhood without a premium price tag. Its appeal is grounded in utility and lot potential rather than sheer size or modern luxury, making it ideal for someone comfortable with the charm of an older home who values outdoor space and a move-in-ready lower level.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s size compare to others nearby?
At 916 sqft, the living space is larger than the average home on Amherst Street and is very typical for the King Edward neighbourhood, offering a comfortable size for the area.

2. What does the assessed value indicate about this property?
With an assessed value of $250k, this home is priced below the average for both its street and the city. In its immediate neighbourhood, however, it sits right around the average, suggesting it is competitively positioned within King Edward.

3. Is the lot size a significant feature?
Yes. The 4,696 sqft lot is a standout, ranking above average for the King Edward area. This provides valuable outdoor space and potential for gardening, expansion, or simply more privacy than many nearby properties.

4. What should I consider about the age of the home?
Built in 1929, the home is older than most on its street and in Winnipeg. This typically means character and established landscaping, but also warrants a thorough inspection to understand the condition of major aging components like the roof, plumbing, and wiring.
