Property Summary: 353 Amherst Street, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a compact, one-storey home built in 1912, situated on a standard city lot in the King Edward neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its position as an affordable entry point into the Winnipeg market. With 832 sqft of living space, it feels reasonably sized for its immediate area and represents a classic, no-frills property.

The home suits first-time buyers, investors, or downsizers who prioritize location and lot value over turn-key condition. It’s a property for someone comfortable with a home that requires updates, seeing potential in its solid, century-old bones. A less obvious perspective is its assessed value: while significantly below the city average, it is actually the highest on its own street, suggesting it may already be one of the more improved properties on the block. This presents a unique scenario of buying the "best house on a street" with room to grow, rather than an over-improved property in a more expensive area.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the exact sold price history?
Exact sold prices are not publicly displayed. The available data shows a sale in June 2020 in the $13.5k to $16.5k range. You can request the precise historical sale figures by email, which will be provided manually without marketing spam.

2. What does the ranking data mean for "Assessed Value"?
The data shows the home’s assessed value of $160k is below average for the city overall. However, within its immediate context on Amherst Street, it ranks at the top (though still below the street's average), indicating it likely has a higher assessment than its direct neighbours.

3. What is included in the "Living Area" of 832 sqft?
This figure refers to the total above-ground, finished living space. The home has a basement, noted as "not renovated," which is not included in this square footage calculation.

4. How does the lot size compare?
The land area is 2,352 sqft. This is below average for the street, neighbourhood, and city, but is a typical footprint for older core neighbourhoods, offering a manageable yard.

5. What are the implications of the 1912 build date?
As a 114-year-old home, it is notably older than most homes in Winnipeg. This typically means character and established neighbourhoods, but buyers should budget for potential updates to systems, insulation, and windows to meet modern standards.
