Key Characteristics and Buyer Profile

This 1909 home stands out primarily for its size and assessed value within its immediate context. With 2,274 square feet of living space, it ranks in the top 3% on Dominion Street and top 5% citywide—nearly double the average square footage for comparable homes in Winnipeg. The assessed tax value of $570,000 places it in the top 2% on the same street, significantly above the neighbourhood and city averages.

The land is generous for the area at 4,967 square feet, ranking in the top 6% on the street and top 8% in Wolseley, though it sits closer to the citywide average. The property is older than most—built in 1909—which places it among the oldest homes on Dominion Street and in the city at large.

The appeal lies in scale and relative value. A buyer here gets a very large home on a substantial lot in a desirable neighbourhood, with an assessed value that reflects premium positioning locally but remains below top-tier pricing citywide. The combination of size, land, and location in Wolseley—a established, walkable Winnipeg neighbourhood—makes this attractive to someone seeking character space without moving to the suburbs.

This property would suit a buyer who values space and location over modernity. Someone drawn to older construction, high ceilings, and neighbourhood character. It is less suited for those wanting a turnkey, low-maintenance newer build or a home that sits near the top of the city’s overall market.


Five Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the assessed value so much higher on Dominion Street than in the city overall?
Dominion Street is a high-value pocket within Wolseley. The average assessed value on the street is $286,000, compared to the city average of $390,000. But this home’s $570,000 assessment is an outlier even on that street—reflecting its exceptional size and position. It ranks 7th out of 420 properties on Dominion Street.

2. Does the older construction year (1909) mean major maintenance issues?
Not necessarily, but a proper inspection is essential. A home of this age likely has older systems, possible foundation work, and original features that require upkeep. The ranking confirms it is older than 97% of properties on its street and 95% citywide. The flip side: older homes in Wolseley often have solid bones and character that newer construction lacks.

3. How does the land size compare practically?
The lot is 4,967 square feet—larger than most neighbouring properties on Dominion Street and in Wolseley. It offers more backyard space, garden potential, or room for additions (subject to zoning). However, the citywide average is 6,570 square feet, so it is not oversized by Winnipeg standards overall.

4. How does this home’s size compare to other homes in Wolseley?
The average living area in Wolseley is about 1,622 square feet. This home is roughly 40% larger than nearby properties. That extra square footage is likely reflected in the floor plan, room sizes, and possibly a larger footprint or additional storey compared to more typical homes in the neighbourhood.

5. What does “top 5% citywide” actually mean for livability and resale?
It means this is a large home in a city where most properties are smaller. Large homes in desirable older neighbourhoods like Wolseley are relatively rare—only about 5% of Winnipeg homes exceed 2,274 square feet. That scarcity can support resale value, but it also means a narrower pool of future buyers. A buyer should consider whether they can maintain and heat a home this size, and whether the neighbourhood supports the premium.
