Property Overview: 748 Renfrew Street, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home on Renfrew Street in the Mathers neighbourhood presents a compelling blend of space, value, and potential. Its most standout feature is the exceptionally large lot—over 9,200 square feet—which ranks in the top 3-4% compared to neighbouring properties. This offers rare potential for gardening, expansion, or simply enjoying generous private outdoor space in the city. The house itself, built in 1958, is newer than many on the street and in the immediate area, which may suggest updated infrastructure or a longer timeline before major system replacements. With a living area just above the local average and an assessed value that sits above the street's median, it represents a solid, middle-ground investment in a well-established area.

The appeal here is grounded in value and possibility. It suits a practical buyer who prioritizes land size over a fully modernized home, seeing the lot as a long-term asset. It would be ideal for a family seeking room to grow outdoors, a DIY enthusiast with plans to gradually update a sound structure, or an investor recognizing the inherent value in one of the larger parcels in the neighbourhood. The property doesn't lead with luxury finishes, but with fundamentals: a newer-than-average build year for the area and a lot size that is increasingly difficult to find.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the assessed value tell us about the property?
The assessed value of $41,700k is above the average for Renfrew Street itself, indicating the municipality views it favorably compared to its direct neighbours, likely due to the large lot and newer build year. It's important to note this is for tax purposes; market value can differ.

2. How does the lot size compare practically?
At 9,218 sq. ft., the lot is substantially larger than the local average of about 6,000 sq. ft. This means the property likely has a much more spacious backyard than most homes you'll see in the area, offering privacy and room for additions like a shed, garden, or deck.

3. The home sold between 2017-2025. Can I find out the exact price?
The listed sale price range is based on public data. The exact sale price is available by request from the listing service via email, as they manually verify and provide this detail to interested parties.

4. What might "newer build year" mean for a 1958 home?
While 1958 is not new, it is newer than many homes on the street (average build year 1953). This could imply updates to original construction methods, wiring, or plumbing compared to older neighbours, but a thorough inspection is still essential to understand the current condition.

5. Who are the most logical buyers for this property?
This home is best suited for buyers whose priority is land. It appeals to those wanting space for children, pets, or hobbies, and who are comfortable with a home that may require updates. It's less suited for buyers seeking a turn-key, modern property without any projects.
