42 Lipton Street – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 1,242 sqft single-family home built in 1913, situated on a 2,832 sqft lot in Winnipeg’s Wolseley neighbourhood. The property’s strongest metric is its assessed value relative to the immediate street: at $329,000, it ranks in the top 15% of Lipton Street homes, well above the street average of $250,200. The living area is slightly above the street average (1,163 sqft) and the citywide average (1,342 sqft), but below the Wolseley neighbourhood average (1,622 sqft), placing it in the bottom quartile for the area. The land is larger than typical for the street (average 2,677 sqft) but smaller than most properties in Wolseley (average 3,434 sqft) and significantly smaller than the citywide average (6,570 sqft).

The appeal here is not about size or modern finishes—it’s about value within the street context. This home is assessed higher than most of its immediate neighbours, which suggests either recent updates, a desirable layout, or a location premium on that block. For Wolseley, where older houses dominate (the neighbourhood average build year is 1916), being a 1913 build is actually slightly above average in age, meaning it fits the character of the area rather than standing out as unusually old.

This property would suit: Buyers who prioritize being in Wolseley—a mature, walkable neighbourhood with established trees and a strong sense of community—over square footage or a large yard. It’s not ideal for someone seeking a sprawling lot or a newer home, but it works well for those who value location and don’t mind a smaller footprint. The assessed value relative to the street suggests the home may have been well-maintained or improved, so it could appeal to buyers looking for a home that’s move-in ready rather than a full renovation project. It would also suit someone who wants to be in a top-tier neighbourhood without paying top-tier prices for the area, given that the assessed value is near the Wolseley average but the living area is below it.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value of this home compare to similar homes in Wolseley?
The assessed value is $329,000, which is below the Wolseley neighbourhood average of $371,300 but well above the street average of $250,200. This puts it around the middle of the pack for the neighbourhood (top 59%) but in a strong position relative to directly comparable homes on Lipton Street.

2. Is this a character home, or has it been renovated?
The year built is 1913, which fits the Wolseley character-home era. However, the assessed value being significantly higher than the street average suggests either updates or a desirable condition. The data does not specify renovation history, so an inspection would be needed to confirm the current state of systems and finishes.

3. Why is the land area ranked so low citywide but not on the street?
The lot is 2,832 sqft—above the street average (2,677 sqft) but well below the citywide average (6,570 sqft). In an older, denser neighbourhood like Wolseley, smaller lots are the norm, so the ranking within the neighbourhood is average (top 70%). Citywide, the lot size falls in the bottom 9% because many newer suburban properties have much larger yards.

4. How does the living size affect daily living?
At 1,242 sqft, this is a modest home by modern standards but consistent with early 1900s construction. It is slightly larger than the average Lipton Street home (1,163 sqft) but smaller than most Wolseley homes (1,622 sqft). This likely translates to fewer rooms or a more compact layout. It could suit a small family, a couple, or a single person, but may feel tight for larger households.

5. What does the “neighbourhood analysis map” show?
The provided link opens a map that displays nearby homes with comparable data on year built, living area, assessed value, and lot size. This is useful for visually comparing this property to its neighbours to understand whether it’s an outlier or a typical fit for the block. It can also help spot trends, like which streets have newer builds or larger lots.
