Property Overview: 835 Government Avenue, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home presents a distinct profile defined by its contrasts. Its primary characteristic is a very generous, nearly 5,000 sqft lot that ranks in the top 5% on its street, offering significant outdoor space and potential in the Munroe East neighbourhood. This stands in sharp relief to the compact 738 sqft living area, which is below average for the area, and the 1910 build date, making it one of the oldest homes in its immediate vicinity.
The appeal lies in this very juxtaposition: it is a land-value proposition with a classic, century-old character. It suits a specific type of buyer: the hands-on individual or investor who sees potential beyond the existing structure. This could be a renovator looking to modernize a historic home on a large lot, a builder eyeing redevelopment possibilities (subject to zoning), or a buyer prioritizing private outdoor space over interior square footage. The notably low assessed value further underscores its position as an entry point or a project property, rather than a move-in-ready home.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why is the assessed value so much lower than the city-wide average?
The assessed value reflects the property's current state as a very small, older home. It is primarily driven by the land size and the existing structure's market value, not by potential future use or recent area sale prices for more modern, larger homes.
2. What does the "Elite" ranking for Land Area mean?
On Government Avenue, this property's lot size is in the top 5%, meaning it is larger than 95% of comparable lots on the same street. This is its most standout statistical feature.
3. Are there recent sales prices for this exact property?
The available data shows a sale between CA$150k–200k in 2016. To obtain the exact historical sold price, you must request it directly via the provided email service on the listing page.
4. What should I consider due to the age of the home (built 1910)?
Prospective buyers should budget for and investigate the condition of major aging components. This includes the foundation, plumbing, electrical systems, and the roof. An inspection is highly recommended to understand the scope of any needed updates or repairs.
5. How does the living area compare to nearby homes?
At 738 sqft, the living space is significantly smaller than the average home in Munroe East (~1,009 sqft) and on Government Avenue itself (~958 sqft). This indicates a cozy, efficient layout, which is important to consider for space needs.
