Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a well-sized, century-old home (built 1913) in the Inkster-Faraday neighbourhood.

The home features a detached garage and a two-and-a-half-storey layout, but the basement is noted as not being renovated.
The property suits buyers looking for a character home with ample interior space relative to its immediate surroundings, and who are comfortable with a project, given the age and the unfinished basement. It represents a more affordable entry point within the wider Winnipeg market, as its assessed value is notably below the citywide average.
