Property Overview: 285 Brooklyn Street, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1913 bi-level home at 285 Brooklyn Street presents a practical and renovated living space in Winnipeg's King Edward neighbourhood. With 800 sqft of living area, its size is typical for the immediate street and area, but notably more compact than the Winnipeg average. A key feature is the renovated basement, adding functional living space. The home sits on a modest 2,294 sqft lot, which is smaller than most in the city but can mean less exterior maintenance.

Its primary appeal lies in its above-average assessed value for the street, suggesting it may be a well-maintained or updated property within its direct peer group. The recent basement renovation supports this. It would suit first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable, updated home in an established neighbourhood without the upkeep of a larger property. The detached garage is a practical asset. A thoughtful perspective is that its smaller scale and lot size, while not offering expansive space, translate to lower utility costs and less time spent on yard work, aligning with a simpler, more efficient lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s size compare to others?
At 800 sqft, the living area is around the average for Brooklyn Street and the King Edward area, but it is significantly smaller than the typical Winnipeg home (which averages about 1,342 sqft).

2. What does the assessed value indicate?
The $270k assessment is above average for Brooklyn Street (top 25%), average for the King Edward area, but below the city-wide average. This often signals a property that is well-kept or improved relative to its closest neighbours.

3. Is the lot size a limitation?
The lot is under 2,300 sqft, which is smaller than most in the area and city. This limits extensive outdoor space but minimizes gardening and snow-clearing responsibilities.

4. What is the significance of the sold price history?
The listed sale range from late 2023 ($28.5k-$31.5k) appears to reference a prior, much lower assessed value system. For the exact sold price, you must request the information via email from the listing service.

5. Who might this property not suit?
It may not be ideal for those needing multiple bedrooms, extensive storage, or a large private yard. The smaller, older footprint requires efficient use of space.
