Property Overview: 1011 Garwood Avenue, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home presents a compelling mix of space, established location, and value within Winnipeg's Rockwood neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in its generous 1,635 sqft living area, which ranks in the top 3% on its own street and top 6% in Rockwood, offering significantly more interior space than many immediate neighbors. Built in 1945, it is a character home typical of its era, sitting on a 4,218 sqft lot that is above average for Garwood Avenue.

The property’s assessed value of $420k sits above average for both the street and neighborhood, yet is close to the citywide average, suggesting you are paying for a well-sized home in a specific, established area rather than a premium citywide location. A thoughtful perspective is that this home represents a "big fish in a small pond"—it offers standout square footage on its block, which could be ideal for those wanting more room without moving to a newer, sprawling suburb. It would suit buyers looking for a character home with ample living space who value an established, tree-lined street community over a brand-new build. The data suggests it's particularly suited for someone who prioritizes interior size and lot dimensions over having the newest home on the block.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the home’s size compare to others nearby?
Very favorably. With 1,635 sqft, the living area is larger than approximately 97% of comparable homes on Garwood Avenue and 94% in the broader Rockwood neighborhood.

2. Is the assessed value in line with the property?
The $420k assessment is above the local averages for the street ($314.7k) and neighborhood ($340.6k). This reflects its larger-than-average size and lot for the immediate area, positioning it as a premium offering on this specific street.

3. What should I know about the age of the home?
Built in 1945, the home is newer than most on its street (average year built is 1938) but is an older character property overall. Prospective buyers should budget for maintenance and updates consistent with a home of this vintage.

4. How can I find out the exact past sale price?
The site provides an estimated sold price range from 2016 ($300k-$350k). For fully verified, exact historical sale figures, you must request a manual lookup via email, as this data is not sourced from the MLS.

5. What does the lot size mean for potential outdoor space or expansion?
At 4,218 sqft, the lot is larger than about 75% of those on Garwood Avenue, offering good outdoor space for the area. However, it is slightly below the Rockwood neighborhood average and notably smaller than the Winnipeg citywide average, which may influence possibilities for additions or landscaping compared to newer subdivisions.
