1659 Pacific Avenue W — Property Summary


Key Characteristics & Buyer Fit

This 1914-built home on Pacific Avenue W offers 1,496 square feet of living space on a 2,476-square-foot lot. Its assessed value is $275,000. The property’s main draw is its interior square footage: it ranks in the top 5% on its street, top 3% in the Weston neighbourhood, and top 31% citywide. For the area, this is a noticeably spacious house—nearly 60% larger than the typical home on the same street and about 50% larger than the neighbourhood average.

Where the home truly stands out is value. Its assessed price is in the top 11% on the street and top 6% in Weston, yet it sits well below the citywide average of $390,100. You’re essentially getting a larger-than-normal floor plan at a price that’s modest by Winnipeg standards. The trade-off is the lot: at just over 2,400 square feet, it’s smaller than most in the area (bottom 18% on the street, bottom 16% in the neighbourhood). And while the 1914 build is typical for the street and neighbourhood, it’s older than the citywide median of 1966—so expect aging infrastructure and the need for ongoing maintenance.

This property would suit a buyer who prioritizes indoor living space over yard size and is comfortable with an older home. It’s a strong fit for someone looking for a solid, affordable footprint in a central neighbourhood without the premium price tag of a newer build or larger lot. First-time buyers or those downsizing from a bigger property—but not downscaling on interior room—might find it especially appealing.


Five Possible FAQs

1. How does the assessed value compare to similar homes nearby?
The $275,000 assessment is well above the street average ($186,200) and neighbourhood average ($184,700), but it’s about $115,000 below the citywide average for comparable homes. In short: it’s priced high for its immediate area but low relative to the broader Winnipeg market.

2. Is the lot too small for a garage or extension?
At 2,476 square feet, the lot is below average for the street (2,925 sqft) and the neighbourhood (3,269 sqft). Whether you can add a garage or extend the house depends on local zoning—but you’ll have less flexibility than on a typical lot in Weston.

3. What should I watch out for with a home built in 1914?
Homes from this era often have original plumbing, electrical, and foundation systems. While this one’s age is typical for the street, you should budget for possible updates to insulation, windows, or the roof. A thorough inspection is a good idea before committing.

4. How does this home’s square footage compare to other older homes in the city?
It’s well above average. Most comparable homes in Weston are around 936 square feet, and the citywide average is 1,342. At 1,496 square feet, you’re getting a noticeably roomier house than what’s typical—especially for its age bracket.

5. Is this a good investment for resale value?
The property sits in a strong position: better living space and assessed value than the vast majority of its immediate neighbours, at a price well below the city median. The smaller lot may limit appreciation potential, but the house itself is already top-tier for the area—meaning it could hold value well in a stable market.
