Property Overview: 796 St. Mary's Road, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home is defined by its compact efficiency and its position as a more accessible entry point into the Winnipeg market. Built in 1927, it is a historic property with a living area of 704 sqft, which is notably smaller than most homes in its immediate neighborhood and across the city. The assessed value of $280,000 is significantly below the average for St. Mary's Road, reflecting its size and vintage, but is more aligned with averages in the broader Norberry area.
Its primary appeal lies in its affordability and manageable scale. The lot size of 4,902 sqft is fairly standard city-wide, offering outdoor space without excessive maintenance. This isn't a property for those seeking ample square footage; instead, it suits first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a lower-cost holding in a well-established area. A thoughtful perspective is that its below-average metrics in a higher-value streetscape could represent a value opportunity for the right buyer—someone willing to trade space for location and potential, or who simply prefers a cozy, character-filled home without a sprawling footprint.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this a small house?
Yes. At 704 sqft, the living area is well below average for the street, neighborhood, and city. It is a compact, character home.
2. Why is the assessed value lower than the street average?
The assessed value of $280,000 is lower primarily due to the home's smaller size and older age compared to larger, more modern homes on St. Mary's Road. It is more in line with average values in the wider Norberry area.
3. How old is the house, and what does that mean for maintenance?
The home was built in 1927. While it offers charm, a home of this age may require more attention to foundational elements, plumbing, electrical systems, and windows compared to a newer build. A thorough inspection is essential.
4. What was it last sold for?
Public records indicate it sold between $200,000 and $250,000 in May 2016. For verified, exact historical sale figures, you can request a manual lookup via the website.
5. The lot size seems average, but the street average is huge. Why?
The "Same street" average for land area is skewed very high (over 76,000 sqft) because St. Mary's Road likely includes several very large or undeveloped lots. At 4,902 sqft, this property's lot is actually quite typical when compared to the Norberry area and the Winnipeg city-wide average.
