26 Evanson Street – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 1910 home in Wolseley, Winnipeg, with 1,384 sqft of living space on a 2,474 sqft lot. Its assessed value is $321,000. What stands out here is not flashiness but consistency: the property sits near the middle of the pack on its street and in its neighbourhood for living area, assessed value, and year built. The lot is notably smaller than the Wolseley average and significantly smaller than the citywide average—something to consider if outdoor space is a priority.

The appeal lies in its balanced, unremarkable positioning. It’s not undervalued or oversized; it’s what you’d expect for a century home in this part of town. That makes it a solid, predictable entry point for buyers who want to be in Wolseley without paying a premium for a standout property. The home’s age (1910) is typical for the area, though it’s much older than the average Winnipeg home (1966), so buyers should factor in maintenance and potential updates.

This property would suit first-time buyers looking for an affordable home in a well-established neighbourhood, or investors seeking a stable asset in a sought-after area without speculative upside. It’s less ideal for buyers who want a large yard, a turnkey modern home, or a property that outperforms its neighbours statistically.


Five Possible FAQs

1. How does the lot size compare to other homes in Wolseley?
The lot is 2,474 sqft, which is below the Wolseley average of 3,434 sqft. On a citywide scale, it’s in the bottom 4% of comparable homes, so the yard is compact. This is typical of older infill lots in the area, but worth noting if you’re hoping for a large garden or expansion room.

2. Is the assessed value of $321,000 reasonable for this area?
Yes—it’s slightly below the street average of $328,200 and well below the neighbourhood average of $371,300. The property ranks in the top 46% on its street for assessed value, meaning it’s on the lower end but not an outlier. No obvious red flags, but it’s worth comparing to recent sale prices for similar homes nearby.

3. The house was built in 1910. What should I be aware of?
That’s older than the Wolseley average (1916) and much older than Winnipeg’s average (1966). Expect potential issues common to century homes: older wiring, plumbing, foundation settling, and possibly outdated insulation. A thorough inspection is wise. On the upside, many 1910 homes in Wolseley have been updated over time.

4. How does the living area compare to other properties nearby?
At 1,384 sqft, it’s near the street average of 1,466 sqft and the neighbourhood average of 1,622 sqft. It ranks in the top 59% on its street, so it’s a bit smaller than some neighbors but not dramatically so. For a 1910 home, this is a common size—not cramped, but not spacious by modern standards.

5. What does “Top 36% citywide” mean for living area?
It means the living area is larger than about 36% of comparable homes across Winnipeg. In other words, it’s around average for the city—neither unusually small nor large. This reinforces that the property is a middle-of-the-road option, which can be a good thing if you want a predictable, no-surprises investment.
