Property Overview: 639 Rathgar Avenue, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 639 Rathgar Avenue in Lord Roberts stands out for its modern build year (2016) and strong assessed value relative to its surroundings. With 1,081 sqft of living space, it offers a comfortable, contemporary footprint that is above average for the immediate street and neighbourhood.

The property’s assessed value ranks in the top 10% locally, suggesting a premium build quality or desirable features for the area.

This home would suit buyers looking for a low-maintenance, move-in-ready property in a mature neighbourhood, who value modern infrastructure over a large lot size.
