Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 291 Brock Street is a classic North River Heights property, built in 1940, offering a blend of established neighbourhood character and practical value. With 1,223 square feet of living space, it is a moderately sized home that sits below the average for its immediate street and neighbourhood, but is very close to the average size citywide. This suggests a more efficient or cozier footprint compared to some larger neighbouring homes, which can appeal to those seeking lower utility costs and easier maintenance.

The lot is a notable feature at 5,237 square feet, which is above average for North River Heights. This offers valuable outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or future expansion—a relative rarity in mature, central neighbourhoods. The assessed value of $433,000 positions it as an average investment on Brock Street and in North River Heights, but above the Winnipeg citywide average, reflecting the desirability of the area.

Its appeal lies in its location within a sought-after, established community, coupled with a generous lot. It would suit first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable home in a prime neighbourhood without the scale of a larger property. It’s also a sensible option for value-conscious buyers who prioritize land size over interior square footage, seeing potential in the property itself.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the size of this home compare to others nearby?
At 1,223 sq ft, the living area is smaller than the average home on Brock Street and in North River Heights. However, it is very close to the average size across the entire city, indicating a more compact and efficient layout typical of many Winnipeg homes.

2. Is the assessed value a good indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value ($433,000) is for municipal tax purposes. While it provides a benchmark, market conditions, the home’s interior condition, and buyer demand ultimately determine the sale price. It’s above the city average, reflecting the neighbourhood's premium.

3. What are the implications of the larger-than-average lot size?
The 5,237 sq ft lot is a key asset. It provides more private outdoor space than many properties in the area and could be a factor for future value, whether for personal enjoyment, adding a garage, or potential redevelopment, subject to zoning.

4. As a home built in 1940, what should I consider?
Homes of this era often feature solid construction and character but may require updates to mechanical systems (like plumbing or electrical), insulation, and windows. A thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition and any needed investments.

5. Why is no sales history shown for this listing?
The platform does not display MLS sales records due to industry rules. You can request the exact sales history and figures manually via the provided email option, and the team will supply the information directly.
