1519 Alexander Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a compact, older home in Winnipeg’s Weston area with a living area of 990 square feet—roughly average for its street and neighbourhood, but notably smaller than the citywide average of 1,342 sq ft. The assessed value sits at $173K, again close to local averages but significantly below the city median of $390K. The lot measures 2,520 sq ft, which is slightly smaller than neighbouring properties and well below the typical Winnipeg lot size.

Where the property stands out most is its age: built in 1903, it ranks in the bottom 1% citywide for year built. That means this is a house with clear vintage character, but also one that may require more maintenance and updating than a newer build.

Its appeal lies in affordability and location within an established, centrally located neighbourhood. For buyers who are handy, patient, or open to a renovation project, this could represent a lower-cost entry point into a reasonably connected part of the city. It would particularly suit first-time buyers with limited budgets but some willingness to invest sweat equity, or investors looking for a fixer-upper in a stable area. It is less suited to those who want a move-in-ready home or a larger lot for扩展.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the property’s value compare to others nearby?
Right in line with the street and neighbourhood averages. Assessed at $173K, it sits near the middle of homes on Alexander Avenue and in Weston. The big gap is compared to the Winnipeg average—this home is priced well below the typical citywide figure.

2. Is the house very old, and does that matter?
Yes, built in 1903. It’s among the oldest homes in the neighbourhood and citywide. That can mean solid original construction, but also older systems (plumbing, electrical, insulation) that may need upgrading. A thorough home inspection is strongly recommended.

3. What’s the lot like? Can I add on or build a garage?
At 2,520 sq ft, the lot is compact. It’s slightly smaller than the street average and much smaller than the city norm. Expansion or adding a detached garage may be possible but would depend on zoning, setbacks, and how much of the lot is already taken up by the house.

4. Why is the citywide rank for living area so low if it’s average locally?
The home is typical for Alexander Avenue and Weston, but those areas tend to have smaller homes compared to many other parts of Winnipeg. The citywide average includes larger homes in newer suburbs, so a 990 sq ft house naturally falls toward the lower end when measured against the whole city.

5. What should I look out for given the home’s age and smaller lot?
Beyond the usual old-home concerns (roof, foundation, windows), pay attention to the lot size—there may be limited room for outdoor storage, parking, or future additions. Also check whether any renovations have been done recently and whether they were permitted. The low assessed value might also affect financing options or insurance rates.
