This is a 1907-built home with 1,514 square feet of living space on a 2,545-square-foot lot in Wolseley. Its standout feature is interior space: it's larger than 70% of homes citywide, though it runs slightly smaller than others on its own street and is about average for the neighbourhood. The assessed tax value ($290,000) is notably below both the street and neighbourhood averages, and the lot is on the smaller side—ranking in the bottom quarter locally and bottom 10% citywide.
The appeal here is pragmatic. You get above-average interior square footage for Winnipeg as a whole, but at a below-average tax assessment. That suggests reasonable value relative to what you're paying in property taxes. The house is old (pre-dates most homes in the city), so it's suited to someone who appreciates character, is prepared for maintenance realities, and isn't looking for a large yard. It would fit buyers who prioritize indoor living space and location over land, and who are comfortable with an older building in an established neighbourhood.
1. How does the property tax compare to similar homes?
The assessed value of $290,000 is below the street average ($358,000), the Wolseley average ($371,000), and the city average ($390,000). This means property taxes are likely lower than many comparable homes, though reassessments can shift this.
2. Is the lot size a concern?
At 2,545 square feet, it's smaller than most. On Chestnut Street, only about 7% of lots are smaller. This is typical for older urban infill neighbourhoods, so it's worth considering if outdoor space matters to you.
3. How does the living space actually feel compared to newer homes?
1,514 square feet is solid for a pre-war home, and larger than the city median. But layout matters more than square footage—older homes often have smaller rooms and less open flow, so the usable space may feel different than a newer home of the same size.
4. What should I know about a house built in 1907?
This home predates 96% of Winnipeg's housing stock. While character homes have charm, systems like wiring, plumbing, insulation, and foundation may be original or updated to varying degrees. A thorough inspection is essential, and budgeting for ongoing upkeep is realistic.
5. How does this property compare to others in Wolseley?
It's close to the neighbourhood average for living space, but below average in both lot size and assessed value. It's a slightly smaller, more affordable entry point into a desirable older area—worth a look if you're trying to get into Wolseley without paying a premium for land.
