675 Selkirk Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 2,063 sqft home on a 3,010 sqft lot, built in 1911. Its standout feature is interior space: it ranks in the top 4% on its street, top 3% in the William Whyte neighbourhood, and top 9% citywide for living area. That’s significantly larger than the typical home in the area, which averages around 1,100–1,150 sqft.

The assessed value of $157,000 is roughly average for the street and neighbourhood, but well below the citywide median of $390,000 — which reflects the neighbourhood’s character and the home’s age, not its size. The lot is below average for the street and city, though typical for the immediate area.

This property would appeal to buyers who prioritize interior square footage over lot size or a newer build. It suits someone looking for space to spread out — families, roommates, or anyone who wants room for a workshop, studio, or large living areas — without paying a premium for land or a modern finish. The relatively low assessed value for the square footage also means the property taxes are likely lower than what you’d pay for a comparable-sized home in a more expensive part of the city. The age (1911) suggests character details and solid construction, but also potential maintenance needs that come with an older home.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the living area compare to other homes nearby?

It’s among the largest. On Selkirk Avenue, only 15 of 456 comparable homes have more square footage. In the William Whyte neighbourhood, it ranks in the top 3%. If space is your priority, this house beats most options in the area by a wide margin.

2. Is the assessed value of $157,000 a good deal?

Relative to the size, yes. You’re paying for a 2,063 sqft home at a per-square-foot rate well below the citywide average. The assessed value is close to the neighbourhood median of $149,100, so it’s in line with what similar homes in William Whyte are valued at. What you’re getting for that price is unusually large interior space.

3. How old is the house, and what does that mean practically?

It was built in 1911, making it older than about 93% of homes in Winnipeg. That typically means thick plaster walls, high ceilings, and hardwood underneath any carpet. It can also mean older wiring, plumbing, and foundation work that may need attention. A pre-purchase inspection focused on the mechanicals and structure is recommended.

4. Why is the lot smaller than the city average?

At 3,010 sqft, the lot is about half the citywide average. This isn’t unusual for older urban neighbourhoods like William Whyte, where homes were built on narrower lots. The trade-off is a more walkable, dense street with less yard maintenance. If gardening or outdoor space is important, keep the lot size in mind.

5. Where can I see how this property compares to nearby houses?

The full breakdown includes a neighbourhood map tool that lets you compare year built, living area, assessed value, and lot size side by side with nearby properties. It’s the clearest way to see how this home stacks up against others within a few blocks.
