Highlights & common questions: 736 Regent Avenue W, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This home at 736 Regent Avenue W in Winnipeg's Melrose neighbourhood presents a specific and practical value proposition. Built in 1942, it's an older home that stands out in its immediate area for its above-average interior space, while its assessed value positions it as an accessible entry point into the market.

Key Characteristics & Appeal

The primary appeal of this property lies in its efficient use of space and land. With 1,182 sqft of living area, it is notably larger than many comparable homes on its street and in the Melrose area, ranking in the top 17%. This makes it a practical choice for small families, first-time buyers, or those seeking a comfortable footprint without excessive upkeep. The lot size of 4,452 sqft is also slightly above average for the locale, offering decent outdoor space.

Its assessed value is modest, especially when viewed city-wide, suggesting a lower property tax burden and an attractive price point for budget-conscious buyers. This combination of more interior space on a decent lot at a lower assessed value creates a compelling efficiency—you get more house for your dollar within this specific community compared to the Winnipeg average.

The home would suit a pragmatic buyer: a first-time purchaser looking for a solid starter home with room to grow, an investor seeking a property with a fundamental value proposition in an established area, or a downsizer wanting manageable space without feeling cramped. It’s for someone who values practical square footage and lot size over modern construction, as the 1942 build date indicates potential for updates.
