Property Overview: 489 Roberta Avenue, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This Rossmere-B bungalow, built in 1956, presents a straightforward and manageable homeownership opportunity. Its key appeal lies in its consistency within its immediate context. The home’s living space (965 sqft), land size (5,000 sqft), and assessed value ($303k) all align closely with the averages for Roberta Avenue and the wider Rossmere-B neighborhood. This suggests a property that is neither an outlier nor a fixer-upper relative to its peers, offering a stable entry point into a mature, established community.
The appeal is grounded in practicality. It suits first-time buyers seeking a home without unexpected extremes, or downsizers looking for a single-level living option on a standard lot. A thoughtful perspective is that its "around average" metrics city-wide, particularly in assessed value, indicate it may offer more space and land for the price compared to newer subdivisions, representing a classic Winnipeg value proposition. The home’s recent sale in late 2022 provides a clear, modern price benchmark for consideration.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home really compare to others nearby?
The data shows it is consistently average to slightly above-average for its specific street and neighborhood in terms of size, value, and lot. It is newer than many homes in Rossmere-B but has a smaller footprint than the Winnipeg city average.
2. What can the 2022 sale price tell me?
The sold price range (CA$300k–350k) provides a direct, recent market benchmark. To understand the exact sale price and any subsequent changes in market value, you can request the verified figures via email from the site.
3. Is the assessed value a good indicator of market price?
The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes. Notably, it is significantly below the city-wide average assessed value for comparable homes (~$390k), which may indicate this area offers more affordable property taxes relative to the overall market.
4. What are the potential considerations for a home built in 1956?
While the building age is typical for the area, prospective buyers should factor in the potential for updates to major aging components like plumbing, electrical, windows, or the roof, which would be part of a standard inspection process.
5. How does the lot size impact future potential?
At just under 5,000 sqft, the lot is standard for the street but smaller than the city average. This is sufficient for a garden and outdoor space but may have limitations for significant expansions or additions, depending on local zoning bylaws.
