Property Overview

This one-and-a-half storey home at 499 Queen Street in Winnipeg's King Edward neighbourhood presents a classic, grounded opportunity. Built in 1952, it sits on a notably generous 6,637 sqft lot—a standout feature that ranks in the top 4% of properties in the area. With 1,054 sqft of living space and a renovated basement, the house itself is functionally sized and updated where it counts. The detached garage adds practical utility.

It’s a property where the land is the leading feature, offering a blank canvas for future enjoyment or improvement.
