Highlights & common questions: 251 Rougeau Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview: 251 Rougeau Avenue, Mission Gardens, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 251 Rougeau Avenue is a compact, efficiently sized property built in 1990, making it notably newer than many homes on its street and across Winnipeg. Its primary characteristic is its modest 720 sqft living area, which is smaller than most comparable homes in the immediate area, neighbourhood, and city. However, this is balanced by a fairly average assessed value for its street and a land area of approximately 3,900 sqft that is typical for Rougeau Avenue.

The appeal lies in its potential as an affordable entry point into the Mission Gardens neighbourhood. The newer build year suggests potentially fewer immediate major maintenance concerns compared to older stock. It suits first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a lower-cost property with a standard lot size. A thoughtful perspective is that its smaller footprint translates to lower utility costs and less upkeep, offering a simpler, more manageable lifestyle. Its assessed value is proportionally higher relative to its size on the local street, indicating it may be viewed as a well-maintained or updated home in its immediate context.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
