Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home on Melbourne Avenue in Munroe West presents a compelling mix of space, value, and location. Built in 1956, its key strength lies in its generous 5,982 sqft lot, which ranks in the top 3% on its street and top 13% in the local area, offering significant outdoor potential. With 1,030 sqft of living space, it is comfortably above average for both the street and neighbourhood.

The appeal is rooted in its standout position within the immediate community. Its assessed value of $351k places it in the elite top 4% for Munroe West, suggesting it is perceived as a premium property in this specific locale. This creates an interesting dynamic: while the home offers more interior space and a much larger lot than many local comparables, its value is notably lower than the Winnipeg city-wide average for homes of similar size. This positions it as a savvy opportunity for buyers who prioritize lot size and neighbourhood standing over a newer build or maximum square footage.

This property would suit a buyer looking for a established home with room to grow, garden, or entertain outdoors. It’s ideal for someone who values a strong position within a specific, desirable neighbourhood rather than just city-wide metrics. It may also attract value-conscious buyers willing to take on a home from the 1950s to secure a large parcel of land in a well-regarded area.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value compare to the recent sale price?
The home sold for an estimated $400k-$450k in August 2022, which was in the top 1% for the area at that time. The current assessed value is $351k. This difference is common and reflects different valuation methods and market timing; an assessment is not a market appraisal.

2. Is the living space smaller than average for Winnipeg?
Yes, at 1,030 sqft, it is below the Winnipeg city-wide average for homes. However, it is notably larger than the average home on Melbourne Avenue (882 sqft) and in the Munroe West area (958 sqft), meaning it offers more space than most of its direct neighbours.

3. What does the "Elite" ranking for Land Area mean?
It means the property's lot size of 5,982 sqft is among the largest available. On Melbourne Avenue, it ranks 5th largest out of 194 homes, placing it in the top 3%. This is a significant and less common feature for the street.

4. The home was built in 1956. What should I consider?
While newer than many homes on its street (average year built 1942), a 70-year-old home will likely have older components like plumbing, electrical, and windows. A thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition and any needed updates or maintenance.

5. How can I get the exact historical sale price?
The site provides sold price ranges for general research. Due to industry rules, exact MLS sale figures are not published here. You can request the exact sale history by email through the site’s provided form, and they will manually look it up and send it to you.
