Property Overview: 440 Wales Avenue, Meadowood, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics, Appeal & Ideal Buyer

This 1975-built home in Meadowood presents a practical and straightforward opportunity. With 997 sqft of living space and a 5,200 sqft lot, its key characteristics are best described as solidly average within its immediate neighbourhood and street. The data shows it consistently ranks around the middle compared to homes on Wales Avenue and in Meadowood for size, value, and lot area. Its assessed value of $370,000 aligns closely with these local averages.

The appeal lies in its stability and predictability. It’s a home that doesn’t stand out for being exceptionally large, new, or small, but rather fits comfortably within its established community context. A thoughtful perspective is that this averageness can be a strength—it suggests the property is unlikely to be over-improved for the area or carry unusual risks, offering a known quantity in a mature neighbourhood. It would suit a first-time buyer or a downsizer looking for a manageable, no-surprises home in a settled area, where value is derived more from location and community than from the property's standout features.

Frequently Asked Questions
