636 Burrows Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Suitability

This home is a newer build in Winnipeg’s William Whyte neighbourhood, constructed in 2015—placing it among the newest 7% of properties citywide and the top 4% in the area, where the average home was built in 1927. Its appeal lies in the combination of modern construction with an assessed value ($267,000) that is well above the neighbourhood average ($149,100), but still below the citywide average ($390,100). In other words, you get a relatively new house in an older, more affordable part of the city, without paying a premium that matches the surrounding area.

The living space is 874 square feet—smaller than typical for the street, neighbourhood, and city. The land area is also below average at 2,727 square feet. So the trade-off is clear: a newer, well-valued home on a modest lot in a neighbourhood where most properties are older and more spacious.

This property would suit buyers who prioritize a newer, move-in-ready home with lower maintenance expectations, and who are comfortable with a smaller footprint—both inside and on the lot. It may appeal to first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a property that stands out in terms of age and assessed value relative to its immediate surroundings. It is less suited for someone seeking large indoor or outdoor space, or a home that aligns with the typical character of the older housing stock in William Whyte.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the assessed value so much higher than the neighbourhood average, but lower than the city average?
The home was built in 2015, while most homes in William Whyte date from the 1920s–1940s. Newer construction generally carries a higher assessed value. However, the neighbourhood itself is on the lower end of the city’s value scale, so a $267,000 home still sits well below Winnipeg’s overall average. The ranking reflects both the age premium locally and the broader city context.

2. How does the 874 sqft living area compare to other homes in this price range?
Citywide, many homes valued around $267,000 are larger—closer to 1,100–1,300 sqft—and were often built before 1960. So you are getting less square footage than typical at that price, but the newer construction and lower maintenance may compensate. It is worth comparing against other recent builds in the city, which are rare at this price point.

3. Is the small lot size a concern for resale?
The lot is below average for the street and area, but not extremely small—2,727 sqft is still a standard city lot in many older Winnipeg neighbourhoods. For buyers who want a yard but not a large one, this can be a practical fit. However, it limits expansion potential and may be less appealing to buyers who value outdoor space.

4. What does “Top 78%” or “Top 75%” mean for living area?
These rankings mean the home is in the bottom quarter to fifth of homes in each category—i.e., 78% of homes on the street have larger living areas, 75% in the neighbourhood, and 86% citywide. The bar chart illustrates how the property compares to a median benchmark; being in the lower percentiles here is expected given the home’s compact size.

5. Why does the neighbourhood ranking for assessed value say “Elite” when the home is below average citywide?
“Elite” refers to the rank within the William Whyte neighbourhood (top 4%). Within that specific area, the home’s value far exceeds most others. Citywide, the comparison pool is much larger and includes many higher-value neighbourhoods, so the same value drops to below average (top 79%). The local context is more relevant if you plan to resell within the same area.
