Property Overview: 269 Linden Avenue, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 269 Linden Avenue in the Rossmere-B neighborhood presents a practical opportunity in Winnipeg’s market. Built in 1920, it is notably older than most homes on its street and in the wider area, which may appeal to buyers interested in character homes or those prepared for potential updates. With 1,080 square feet of living space and a 4,999 sqft lot, its size is consistently average or slightly above average for its immediate vicinity, offering comfortable space without being oversized.

Its primary appeal lies in its value positioning. With an assessed value of $299k, it sits below the citywide average and is competitively priced against similar homes on Linden Avenue and in Rossmere-B. This suggests an entry point into a stable neighborhood without a premium price tag. The home last sold in late 2021 for an estimated $250k–$300k, indicating its assessed value is in line with recent market activity.

This property would best suit a value-conscious first-time buyer, an investor looking for a rental property with solid fundamentals, or a hands-on buyer who sees potential in an older home. It’s a straightforward option for someone prioritizing location and lot size over modern build dates, offering a chance to build equity in a home that isn’t competing at the top of the market.


Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the 1920 build date affect this home?
Being built in 1920 means this home is among the older ones in the area. While it offers classic character, it may require more attention to aging components like plumbing, electrical, or insulation compared to newer builds. It’s advisable to budget for a thorough inspection.

2. Is the assessed value a good indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value of $299k is a municipal valuation for tax purposes, not a market price. However, it is closely aligned with the home’s last sale price (2021, est. $250k–$300k) and is below the neighborhood and city averages, suggesting it is priced within a reasonable market range.

3. How does the lot size compare?
At just under 5,000 sqft, the lot is average for Linden Avenue and Rossmere-B. It provides decent outdoor space but is smaller than the typical Winnipeg lot, which averages around 6,570 sqft.

4. What does the "ranking" data mean for living area and value?
The data shows this home’s living area (1,080 sqft) ranks in the top 42% on its street, meaning it’s slightly larger than many neighbors. Its assessed value ranks in the top 63% on the street, indicating it’s valued higher than many nearby homes—a positive sign for its perceived worth in the micro-market.

5. Who are the typical neighbors or comparable homes?
Nearby homes on Linden and Greene Avenues are a mix of older (1910s-1920s) and mid-century (1950s) builds, with living areas ranging from 480 to over 1,000 sqft and assessed values from $172k to $318k. This property fits squarely in the middle of this diverse range, neither the smallest nor the most expensive.
