Property Overview
144 Thom Avenue E is a two-storey home in Winnipeg's Kildare-Redonda neighbourhood. Built in 1967, it offers 1,140 sqft of living space and sits on a 2,998 sqft lot. The home features a renovated basement and does not include a garage or pool. Its most recent recorded sale was between late 2019 and early 2020.
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This home's primary appeal lies in its efficient use of space and its position within a well-established area. While the lot size is modest compared to many city and neighbourhood homes, the living area is notably above average for both its immediate street and the Kildare-Redonda area. This suggests a well-proportioned home that maximizes its footprint. The renovated basement adds functional living space, a valuable asset in a home of this era.
The property suits practical, value-conscious buyers. It would be a strong fit for first-time homeowners seeking a manageable property without a large yard to maintain, or for downsizers looking for comfortable space on a single level (main and upper floors) with extra flexible space in the basement. Its assessed value is below the area average, which may indicate a more accessible entry point into the neighbourhood. A thoughtful perspective is that its smaller lot and efficient size could translate to lower maintenance costs and utility bills, offering a different kind of value beyond the purchase price.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "above average" living area ranking mean?
Compared to other homes on Thom Avenue E and in the Kildare-Redonda neighbourhood, this home has more living space than most. It ranks in the top 8% on its street and top 7% in the area for square footage.
2. Why is the assessed value below the area average?
The assessed value is a municipal valuation for tax purposes. Its below-average ranking for the area can be influenced by factors like the home's smaller lot size, its age, and the specific characteristics of the property compared to area averages.
3. Is the lot size a significant drawback?
The lot is smaller than typical for the city and the neighbourhood. This means less outdoor space for gardening or recreation, but also less yard work. It's a trade-off that depends on the buyer's lifestyle and priorities.
4. What can the 2019 sale price range tell me?
