Property Overview: 881 Cathedral Avenue, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 720 sqft home, built in 1949, presents a practical and affordable entry point into Winnipeg’s Robertson neighborhood. Its key appeal lies in its value positioning. With an assessed value of $233k, it sits below the neighborhood and city averages, offering a relatively lower property tax base. The lot size is consistent with the local area, providing standard outdoor space.

The home’s living area is compact, ranking below average for the street, neighborhood, and city. This defines its primary buyer: a first-time homebuyer, downsizer, or investor seeking a manageable, low-maintenance property. Its strongest suit is location within an established area, where it represents one of the more accessible price points. A thoughtful perspective is that its 1949 build date is newer than many on its street, potentially suggesting updates over time or fewer concerns associated with very early 20th-century construction. It’s a property for those prioritizing financial efficiency and location over square footage, suited to a lifestyle that values simplicity or sees the home as a strategic first step in the market.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the price competitive for the area?
Yes. The assessed value is below both the Robertson neighborhood and Winnipeg city averages. Recent sale data for the area suggests it sits in a lower price band, indicating it could be a value-oriented option.

2. How does the home’s size compare to others?
At 720 sqft, the living area is notably smaller than average for the street (1,212 sqft), the neighborhood (977 sqft), and the city (1,342 sqft). This emphasizes its role as a compact, efficient living space.

3. What is the property’s history?
Public records show it last sold between late 2019 and early 2020, in the CA$150k–200k range. For fully verified and exact transaction history, you must request a manual lookup from the site.

4. What are the neighbors like?
Immediate neighbors on Cathedral Avenue are similar in era, with build dates ranging from the 1940s to 1950s. Assessed values on the block vary, showing a mix of modest and slightly higher-valued homes, suggesting a stable, established streetscape.

5. Where does this property rank overall?
Its city-wide rankings are in the top tier for value (top 86%) and lot size (top 74%), but in the lower tier for living area (top 95%, meaning 95% of homes are larger). This highlights its profile: a smaller home on a standard lot with a proportionally lower assessed value.
