This property would best suit pragmatic first-time buyers or downsizers seeking an established, no-fuss home in a stable community.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home's value hold up in the broader Winnipeg market?
While its assessed value is around the city average, it's notably below the citywide average assessed value for comparable homes ($390.1k). This suggests you may get more house for your money here compared to many Winnipeg neighborhoods, though the living space is typically smaller.

2. Is the lot size a constraint?
At just under 5,000 sqft, the lot is average for the street but smaller than many city lots. It provides adequate private outdoor space but may not accommodate large additions or extensive landscaping ambitions.

3. What does the 1953 build year imply for maintenance?
Built in the post-war era, the home likely has standard construction for its time. Buyers should budget for updates common to houses of this age, such as roofing, windows, or mechanical systems, though its age is typical for the area.

4. The last sale was between $150k-$200k in 2019. Why the jump in assessed value?
The assessed value reflects the current municipal valuation for taxation, influenced by market trends. The significant increase from the 2019 sale price aligns with broader market appreciation over the past several years.

5. Who are the most likely competing buyers for this property?
Given its profile, competition will likely come from budget-conscious buyers comparing it directly to other similar-sized homes on Linden Avenue and in Rossmere-B, rather than those shopping for newer or significantly larger properties citywide.
