736 Burrows Avenue – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a compact, older home (built 1912) with 825 square feet of living space on a 2,463-square-foot lot. The property’s most notable feature is its assessed value relative to the surrounding neighbourhood. While the home’s living area and land size rank well below average on its street, in the William Whyte area, and citywide, its assessed value of $213,000 is actually above average for the neighbourhood (top 13%)—a reversal that stands out. This suggests the structure or its condition holds value locally, even though it is modest by city standards.

The appeal here is for a buyer who values affordability in an older, established Winnipeg neighbourhood and is comfortable with a smaller footprint. It would suit someone looking for a lower entry price point in William Whyte—potentially an investor or first-time buyer willing to update a century home. The property does not offer generous indoor or outdoor space; the 2,463 sqft lot is among the smallest in the area (top 84% on the street). However, the assessed value being aligned with or above area averages hints that the home may have retained or improved its condition better than many nearby.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the living area compare to similar homes nearby?
At 825 sqft, it’s smaller than most. The average on Burrows Avenue is 1,116 sqft; in William Whyte, it’s 1,158 sqft; citywide, it’s 1,342 sqft. This ranks in the bottom tier for living area across all three levels.

2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of market price?
Assessed value is a baseline, not a guarantee. Here, the $213,000 assessment is near the street average ($227,300) but well above the neighbourhood average ($149,100). This divergence could reflect recent upgrades or the house being better-maintained than others—but check recent sales for the actual market value.

3. How old is the property, and what should I expect from a 1912 build?
The year built is 1912, which is around average for the street and neighbourhood but older than most citywide (average 1966). Expect older systems (plumbing, electrical, foundation), potential for lead paint or asbestos, and less insulation. A home inspection is especially important.

4. What’s the lot size like, and does it limit anything?
The land area is 2,463 sqft, which is small—ranking in the bottom 16% on the street and the bottom 9% in the neighbourhood. This restricts additions, large gardens, or detached garages. It’s a typical urban lot for an older infill home.

5. Why is the neighbourhood ranking for value so high compared to other rankings?
The assessed value in William Whyte places this property in the top 13%, while living area and land size rank much lower. This usually means the home itself—possibly its finishes, roof, mechanicals, or overall condition—is considered above the local norm, even if the footprint isn’t. It may also reflect rising demand in the area.
