1616 Roy Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 1946-built home with 1,023 square feet of living space on a notably large 4,728-square-foot lot. The property sits in the Weston neighbourhood of Winnipeg. Its strongest asset is the land: the lot ranks in the top 10% within the neighbourhood and top 18% on Roy Avenue itself—significantly larger than the street average of 3,729 square feet. The house itself is modest in size, slightly above average for the street but below the citywide norm. Assessed value is $206,000, which is above the neighbourhood average ($184,700) but well below the citywide average ($390,100). The year built is typical for the area.

The appeal here lies in the lot. For buyers who prioritize outdoor space, a garden, or future expansion potential, this property offers something the immediate neighbours mostly don't. The living area is functional but not generous, so it suits someone more interested in land than interior square footage. First-time buyers looking for an entry point into a mature neighbourhood, or those willing to take on cosmetic updates in exchange for a larger yard, would find this a practical fit. It's less suited to someone seeking modern finishes or a house that's already right-sized for a growing family without any work.


Five Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes nearby?
The assessed value of $206,000 is above the Weston neighbourhood average of $184,700, and slightly above the Roy Avenue average of $194,500. This reflects the larger lot and stable demand in the area, though it's still well below the Winnipeg-wide median for comparable homes.

2. Is the living area considered small for the city?
Yes, by citywide standards it is. Winnipeg's comparable-home average is 1,342 square feet, so this house is about 24% smaller. But on Roy Avenue and in Weston, it's actually around average or slightly above—so it's typical for the immediate location.

3. What does the lot size really mean for day-to-day use?
At 4,728 square feet, it's roughly a third larger than the street average and nearly 45% larger than the neighbourhood average. That extra space is usable—not just a narrow side strip—so it opens up possibilities for a sizable vegetable garden, a workshop, or even a future garage or laneway suite, depending on zoning.

4. Is the year built (1946) a concern?
It's older than the citywide average of 1966, but roughly in line with Weston's average of 1937 and Roy Avenue's average of 1950. Homes from this era often have solid framing and generous lot depths, but systems (electrical, plumbing, insulation) may be original or need updating. A home inspection is worthwhile to gauge what's been upgraded.

5. How does this property rank overall compared to others in Winnipeg?
In terms of living area and assessed value, it ranks in the bottom quarter citywide. But in land area, it sits near the middle—around the 62nd percentile. In other words, it's a house that offers more land than most but less interior space and lower valuation than the city average. That's exactly the kind of trade-off that appeals to buyers who value outdoor space over indoor polish.
