Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,027 sqft bungalow, built in 1956, presents a solid and above-average offering within its established Robertson neighbourhood. Its primary appeal lies in its strong positional value: the assessed value of $317k ranks well above the local street and area averages, suggesting it is perceived as a premium property within its immediate context. The home sits on a 4,529 sqft lot, which is more generous than most on Polson Avenue, offering valuable outdoor space and potential.

The home suits practical buyers looking for a sound investment in a mature community. It’s ideal for someone who values being in a well-regarded spot on the street and in the area, as indicated by its high percentile rankings locally, more than seeking a large or modern floor plan (its living area is below the Winnipeg average). The 1956 build date is notably newer than many neighbouring homes, which may imply updates or a different construction era than surrounding properties. This isn’t the newest or largest home in the city, but it represents a strong, above-average contender in its own neighbourhood.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home’s value compare to recent sales?
It last sold between $300k-$350k in May 2021. Its current assessed value of $317k is above the neighbourhood average, indicating official valuation has risen since that sale, placing it in the top tier for the area.

2. Is the living space smaller than typical?
At 1,027 sqft, it is slightly below the citywide average but is very comparable to the typical home in the Robertson area (977 sqft avg.) and on Polson Avenue itself (1,066 sqft avg.). It offers a standard layout for the neighbourhood.

3. What does the “above average” year built mean?
Most comparable homes on this street were built around 1934, and in Robertson around 1949. Being built in 1956 means this home is significantly newer than many of its direct neighbours, which can be an advantage for systems, layout, or prior renovation potential.

4. How reliable is the sold price data shown?
The sold price range is based on publicly available data, not the MLS. For fully verified and exact historical sale figures, you must request a manual lookup from the site via email.

5. Who would this property not suit?
Buyers prioritizing very large interior square footage or a brand-new build may find it limiting. Its appeal is strongest for those who value lot size, neighbourhood standing, and a home that is newer than much of the local housing stock, within a mature urban community.
