Property Overview: 899 Polson Avenue, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home at 899 Polson Avenue presents a solid, mid-century property in Winnipeg's Robertson neighbourhood. Built in 1954, its 1,083 sqft living space is very typical for the street and slightly above average for the immediate area. The standout feature is the land: at over 5,100 sqft, the lot size ranks in the top 8% on Polson Avenue, offering more outdoor space than most neighbouring properties. With an assessed value of $303k, it sits above average for both the street and Robertson, yet remains below the citywide average, suggesting a relatively strong value position within its established community.
The appeal lies in its balance and potential. It’s a property that outperforms its direct peers on key metrics like lot size and value, without being an outlier. It suits practical buyers looking for a grounded investment in a mature neighbourhood—perhaps first-time homeowners seeking space to grow into, or downsizers wanting a manageable home without sacrificing yard space. The recent sale in 2024 indicates active market interest, and the home’s consistent above-average ranking in Robertson suggests it’s a dependable asset within the local context, rather than a speculative play.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home’s value compare to recent sales on the street?
The home sold in mid-2024 for an estimated $300k-$350k. This sale price ranked in the top 7% on Polson Avenue at the time, indicating it was a premium transaction compared to other street-level sales.
2. Is the living space considered small for Winnipeg?
At 1,083 sqft, it is below the Winnipeg average of 1,342 sqft for comparable homes. However, it is above the Robertson neighbourhood average (977 sqft), making it a comfortably sized home for the area.
3. What does the "above average" lot size practically mean?
With a 5,117 sqft lot ranking in the top 20% in Robertson, you likely have more space for gardening, recreation, or additions than many nearby properties, which is a distinct advantage in an older neighbourhood.
4. The home was built in 1954, but the average year on the street is 1934. What does this imply?
This suggests the home is actually newer than many on its block. In an area with many homes from the early 1900s, a 1950s build may indicate potentially updated construction methods or materials for its time.
5. Where can I get verified, exact historical sale prices?
The provided sold price ranges are based on public data. For fully verified and exact transaction figures, you must request a manual lookup from the site via email, as MLS sold records are not displayed here due to industry rules.
