Property Overview: 190 Birchdale Avenue, Norwood West, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics, Appeal & Ideal Buyer

This home is a study in contrasts, offering a blend of established character and practical metrics. Built in 1923, it is one of the older homes on its street and in the Norwood West neighborhood, which suggests classic architectural charm but also implies a greater potential need for updates or maintenance. Its living space of 1,044 sqft is modest compared to area averages, positioning it as a manageable, cozier dwelling rather than a sprawling one.

The property’s standout feature is its land. The lot size of 5,998 sqft is elite for Birchdale Avenue (ranking in the top 3% on the street) and above average for the neighborhood. This presents a significant opportunity for gardening, outdoor living, or future expansion, a rare find in established areas. With an assessed value of $391k that aligns closely with city and street averages, the home sits in a stable, mid-range value bracket. Its last known sale was between $350k-$400k in August 2022.

The appeal lies in its generous lot within a mature neighborhood, offering a balance of affordability and potential. It would suit a first-time buyer or downsizer comfortable with a home of vintage character and manageable square footage, who prioritizes outdoor space over a large interior. It’s also a candidate for a buyer with renovation or expansion plans, where the valuable lot can be fully leveraged.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the age of this home affect its value and cost?
Being built in 1923 means the home likely has enduring craftsmanship and charm, but buyers should budget for potential updates to older systems like wiring, plumbing, or windows. Its assessed value already factors in its age, but future maintenance should be considered.

2. The living area is noted as below average for the neighborhood. How does the layout feel?
At 1,044 sqft, the home is more compact than many in Norwood West. This can mean efficient, cozy living spaces with lower utility costs, but it may feel confined for those needing multiple dedicated rooms. The generous lot size can effectively extend the living space outdoors.

3. What does the "elite" lot ranking actually mean for me?
Ranking in the top 3% on the street for lot size means you have more outdoor space than nearly all your immediate neighbors. This allows for greater privacy, larger gardens, play areas, or the physical space for an addition, deck, or garage that many other lots cannot accommodate.

4. The assessed value is around average. Is the asking price likely to be similar?
Assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and often lags behind the market. The last sold price (2022) was between $350k-$400k. A current listing price would be influenced by recent market conditions, updates made since the last sale, and the unique value of the large lot.

5. Can I get the exact historical sale prices?
The public data shown is presented in ranges. To obtain verified, exact sale figures from the full transaction history, you must request them directly via email from the site provider, as they do not publish MLS data due to industry regulations.
