Property Overview: 681 Oakland Avenue, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This Rossmere-A home presents a solid, middle-of-the-road opportunity in the Winnipeg market. Built in 1959, it is slightly newer than many of its immediate neighbors on Oakland Avenue. The 1,040 sqft living space is very typical for the street and neighborhood, offering a practical layout for everyday living. The standout feature is the 5,888 sqft lot, which is larger than most on the block, providing valuable outdoor space and potential.
The appeal lies in its predictability and alignment with area norms. It’s not an outlier in size, value, or age, which can mean fewer surprises and a stable investment in an established community. The recent sale price (between $350k-$400k in early 2025) positioned it favorably compared to local and city-wide averages, suggesting it was acquired at a reasonable market value.
This property would suit first-time buyers or practical downsizers looking for a straightforward home in a mature neighborhood. It’s for those who value a larger yard over a larger house and appreciate a home that doesn’t require extensive modernization just to meet area standards. It’s a choice for grounded, long-term living rather than a quick renovation project or a premium luxury purchase.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is this house a good value compared to others on the street?
Based on the assessed value and recent sale data, it sits very close to the street average. The sale price placed it in the top 14% of sales on the street for the period, indicating it was perceived as a competitive offering, likely due to its combination of typical living space and above-average lot size.
2. How does the lot size compare to other properties?
The lot is a key advantage. At nearly 5,900 sqft, it ranks in the top 13% on Oakland Avenue, meaning you get more outdoor space than most nearby homes. This is a less obvious perk that adds long-term utility and privacy.
3. Is the living area considered small?
At 1,040 sqft, it is slightly below the Winnipeg city average but is completely standard for Rossmere-A and Oakland Avenue specifically. It’s a size that efficiently meets the needs of a small family or couple without the upkeep costs of a larger footprint.
4. What does the year built (1959) indicate?
Being built in 1959 makes it slightly newer than the immediate street average. In practical terms, this could mean somewhat updated building materials or systems for its era, but it firmly places the home in the post-war construction period common to the area. Buyers should expect the maintenance typical of a 65-year-old home.
5. Where can I get the exact historical sale price?
The website provides sold price ranges for general research. Due to industry regulations, exact sale figures and full transaction history are not published online here. You can request the exact sold price history by emailing the site directly for a manual lookup.
