Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home presents as a practical, entry-level property in Winnipeg's Rossmere-B neighborhood. Built in 1949, its key characteristic is its modest scale: at 814 sqft, it is notably smaller than most comparable homes on its street, in the area, and across the city. The lot size of 4,748 sqft is also below the local average but is closer to the city-wide norm. With an assessed value of $285k, it sits below average for assessed values in all comparison scopes, indicating a potentially lower price point relative to its surroundings.

The appeal lies in its affordability and opportunity. It suits first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a lower-cost entry into a stable, established neighborhood. The below-average metrics suggest a property that is not competing with larger, renovated homes, which can be an advantage for those looking for a project or a manageable footprint without a premium price. A thoughtful perspective is that a smaller, well-maintained home on a decent lot can offer a cozy efficiency and lower utility costs, which is increasingly valued. Its sale in 2022 within the $300k-$350k range aligns with its positioning as a value-oriented option.
