Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home presents a compelling blend of classic charm and above-average substance. Built in 1912, it is notably older than most homes in the area, which will appeal to buyers who appreciate character and heritage but also requires a realistic view towards maintenance and potential updates. Its true strength lies in its generous proportions: with 1,712 sqft of living space, it ranks comfortably in the top quarter for size compared to homes on its street, in Norwood West, and across Winnipeg. This spaciousness is complemented by a sizable, roughly 6,000 sqft lot, providing ample outdoor space that is around the neighbourhood average.

The appeal is rooted in its established, mature setting and the tangible value of space. The assessed value of $473k is consistently above average across all comparison levels, suggesting the property is recognized for its substantial footprint and lot. It suits a buyer looking for a "larger-than-average" home in an established neighbourhood—perfect for a growing family, someone who values room to grow, or a buyer who sees potential in the lot size for gardens or expansions. It’s a property for those who prioritize space and location over modern build-year, ideal for a hands-on owner comfortable with the nuances of an older, character-filled home.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the 1912 build year impact the property?
While it grants undeniable character, it also means the home is significantly older than most in Winnipeg. Buyers should prioritize a thorough inspection to understand the condition of major systems like plumbing, electrical, and the foundation, and budget accordingly for upkeep or thoughtful updates.

2. The assessed value is above average. What does that indicate?
The consistent above-average assessment across the street, area, and city reflects the property’s substantial living area and lot size. It suggests the municipal valuation recognizes these tangible assets, which can be a stable foundation for market value, though the final sale price is always determined by the market.

3. How does the lot size compare, and what are the possibilities?
At just under 6,000 sqft, the lot is solidly average for Norwood West but offers generous outdoor space by city standards. This allows for mature trees, gardening, recreational space, or future additions like a deck or garage, subject to local zoning.

4. What can the 2019 sale price range tell me?
The previous sale in the $400k-$450k range provides a historical benchmark. Considering the current assessed value and market changes since 2019, it offers a reference point for price appreciation trends in the area, though it is not a predictor of the current listing price.

5. How can I get precise historical sale data for this home?
The provided sold price is an estimated range from public records. For fully verified and exact transaction history, you must request a manual lookup from the site via email, as they do not display proprietary MLS sold data.
