Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 12 Rover Avenue in North Point Douglas is a study in contrasts, defined by its context. Built in 1905, it is a historic property with above-average interior space for its immediate street, offering 1,332 sqft of living area. This makes it the largest home on Rover Avenue within the data set. However, its assessed value of $78k is notably below average for the neighbourhood and significantly below the Winnipeg city average, reflecting its position as a value-oriented entry point.

The primary appeal lies in its potential. It represents a low-barrier entry into homeownership or investment in a central Winnipeg neighbourhood. The lot, while smaller than many in the wider city, is a manageable size. It suits a specific buyer: the hands-on individual or investor looking for a project, who is comfortable with the upkeep of a century-old home and sees opportunity in its undervalued status. It’s not a move-in-ready showpiece, but a canvas. A thoughtful perspective is that its lower assessed value could present a long-term tax advantage, and its established age places it in a character-rich category that newer builds cannot replicate.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the assessed value so much lower than the city average?
Assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is influenced by many factors, including the home's age, condition, and recent sales in the area. This valuation suggests the property is considered a more basic offering compared to the broader Winnipeg market.

2. What does the sold price history indicate?
The home sold between 2017 and 2025 for an estimated price between CA$50k and CA$100k. This historical range is consistent with its current below-average assessed value and indicates it has been a lower-priced property in the market for some time.

3. Is the living space actually a good size?
Yes, particularly for the street. At 1,332 sqft, it ranks first out of seven homes on Rover Avenue for living area, meaning it offers more interior space than its direct neighbours. It is also close to the average size for both the North Point Douglas area and the entire city.

4. What should I consider with a home built in 1905?
While full of character, a 121-year-old home will likely require diligent maintenance and potential updates to mechanical systems like wiring and plumbing. It's highly advisable to invest in a thorough professional inspection to understand the condition and any needed repairs.

5. How can I get the exact past sold price?
The displayed sold price is a broad range. To obtain the exact historical sale figure, you must request it directly via email through the site. They manually look up and provide this data, as it is not sourced from the MLS system.
