Property Overview: 496 Walker Avenue, Lord Roberts, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,080 sqft home, built in 1911, presents a classic character home opportunity in the established Lord Roberts neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its relative size and value within its immediate context. While the home is around average for its street in terms of living space, year built, and assessed value, it stands out as being more spacious than many comparable homes on Walker Avenue. This creates a practical advantage on a street-level comparison.

The property suits buyers looking for a character home without a premium price tag, particularly those who value space over a modern build. It’s a pragmatic choice for someone wanting to live in a mature neighbourhood where the home itself is competitive among its direct peers, even if its lot size and assessed value are more modest when viewed against the wider city. A thoughtful perspective is that this home may offer a "larger feel" on its street—a notable perk for daily living—while its city-wide below-average assessment could signal a different kind of opportunity for a buyer focused on the potential of the structure itself rather than the land.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home really compare to others in the area?
Based on the data, this home offers more living space than the average comparable home on Walker Avenue itself, which is a key local advantage. However, its lot size is smaller than most in the broader Lord Roberts neighbourhood.

2. What does the assessed value tell me?
The assessed value of $220k is around average for Walker Avenue but below average for both the Lord Roberts area and Winnipeg overall. This can sometimes indicate a valuation focused more on the existing structure than the land, which is common for older homes.

3. The home was built in 1911. What should I consider?
A home of this age will likely have character but requires a careful inspection for the condition of major systems like wiring, plumbing, and the foundation. Its maintenance history will be a crucial factor.

4. Are there recent sales history details for this exact address?
Exact sold prices are not publicly listed. The available data shows a sale occurred between 2021 and 2025 in the $200k-$250k range. You can request the precise sale price and history directly via the provided email service.
