Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a modest, well-situated home built in 1941, offering a practical entry point into the established North River Heights neighborhood. Its key characteristic is its relative affordability, with an assessed value of $358k, which is notably below the average for its immediate street and area, but aligns closely with the wider Winnipeg average. The home is compact at 935 square feet of living space, placing it well below average size for the local area, and sits on a roughly 4,819 sqft lot that is typical for the neighborhood.

The primary appeal lies in its location and value proposition. It suits first-time homebuyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a lower-cost foothold in a desirable area without a large renovation project, given its last known sale was between $250k-$300k in 2020. A thoughtful perspective is that its smaller scale and lower taxes could be seen as an advantage for those seeking a simpler, more manageable property without the upkeep of a larger home. It represents an opportunity to invest in the neighborhood itself rather than in extensive square footage.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this a small house for the area?
Yes. At 935 sqft, the living area is significantly smaller than most homes on Ash Street and in North River Heights, where averages are around 1,600 sqft.

2. Why is the assessed value lower than the neighborhood average?
The assessed value of $358k reflects the home's smaller size and older age relative to many area properties. It's below average for the street and neighborhood but is very close to the city-wide average for homes.

3. What is the potential for expansion or renovation?
The lot size is fairly standard for the area, providing the physical space that could potentially allow for an addition, subject to zoning bylaws and permits. The home's age means any renovation should include a thorough inspection of major systems.

4. How reliable is the sold price data shown?
The listed sale price range of CA$250k–300k from May 2020 is based on publicly available data. For fully verified and exact historical transaction figures, you must request a manual lookup via email, as the site does not display MLS records.

5. How does this home compare to others in Winnipeg overall?
City-wide, this property is more aligned with averages. Its living space is still below the city average, but its assessed value is very typical, and its lot size is just slightly below average. This highlights that it's a characteristically urban, older home.
