This is a small, older home—576 square feet of living space, built in 1929, on a 1,999 sqft lot in Winnipeg’s Weston neighbourhood. By nearly every measurable metric, the property ranks near the bottom compared to others on the same street, within Weston, and across the entire city. Living area is in the 1st percentile city-wide; assessed value sits at $91,000, well below the neighbourhood average of $185,000 and the city average of $390,000. The home itself is roughly 96 years old, though its age ranks closer to the middle in Weston specifically—suggesting many nearby properties are similarly vintage.
The appeal here is not in size, finish, or market value. It lies in affordability and entry-level access. This is among the cheapest properties in one of Winnipeg’s lower-priced neighbourhoods. For a buyer who needs the lowest possible purchase price and tax burden, and who is comfortable with a small floorplan and an older structure that likely requires updates or maintenance, this could be a realistic starting point. It may also appeal to an investor looking for a low-cost rental or a land-hold play, given Weston’s relative affordability compared to other Winnipeg neighbourhoods. Less obvious: a property this small and low-valued may qualify for certain renovation grants or first-time buyer programs that higher-priced homes do not, and its land-to-building ratio leaves room for expansion or redevelopment in a city where detached lots are becoming scarcer.
1. Is this property livable as-is, or does it need major work?
The data doesn’t specify condition, only age and size. A home built in 1929 with a very low assessed value often signals deferred maintenance. A thorough home inspection is strongly recommended before assuming move-in readiness.
2. How do property taxes compare to other homes in Weston?
Assessed value is $91,000, roughly half the Weston average. Property taxes will be proportionally low, making this one of the more tax-efficient properties in the area.
3. Could this property be expanded or renovated?
The lot is 1,999 sqft—small, but not unusually so for an older urban infill site. Zoning rules in Weston would need to be checked, but small lots like this sometimes allow for additions or conversion to a two-storey, depending on setbacks and current bylaws.
4. Why is the assessed value so low compared to the street average?
The street average of $192,000 suggests other homes on Cecil Street are larger or in better condition. This property’s 576 sqft and age, combined with likely condition factors, place it in the bottom 1% of city-wide assessed values.
5. Is this a good neighbourhood for first-time buyers?
Weston is one of Winnipeg’s older, more established working-class areas. It offers relatively low entry prices compared to the rest of the city, but nearby amenities, schools, and crime rates should be researched independently. The low entry cost can be an advantage, but resale value may also appreciate slowly relative to other neighbourhoods.
