Property Overview: 34 Paisley Place, Jameswood, Winnipeg
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This one-storey home, built in 1957, sits on a generous 5,397 sqft lot in Winnipeg's Jameswood neighbourhood. Its key appeal lies in its strong positioning within its immediate, established street and area. While the 1,014 sqft living space is modest by city-wide standards, it is above average for Paisley Place itself. The property stands out for having one of the oldest build dates on the street, which often correlates with mature landscaping and well-established lot sizes. The detached garage adds practical utility.
This home would suit a first-time buyer or downsizer looking for a manageable, single-level layout in a quiet setting. Its value proposition is grounded in the lot size and location rather than the size of the home itself. A thoughtful perspective for a buyer is to consider the potential of the land and the character of an older home, balanced against the maintenance or updates a 69-year-old property may require. It represents an entry into a stable area where the property's metrics are consistently stronger within its local context than in broader city comparisons.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home really compare to others in the area?
The data shows it holds its own locally. Its living space is above average for its street (top 21%), and its lot size is notably larger than most on Paisley Place (top 8%). In the wider Jameswood area, it sits comfortably around the average for key metrics.
2. What does the "Elite" ranking for Year Built mean?
This indicates the home is one of the oldest on its street and in Jameswood (top 2-4%). This isn't a quality judgment but a fact of its age. It suggests a mature streetscape and may imply original character, but also warrants a close look at the condition of major aging components like the roof, windows, and foundation.
3. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the selling price?
The assessed value ($30.50k) is for municipal tax purposes and is not a market valuation. The last recorded sold price range (late 2023) was between $29.50k and $32.50k. Market conditions and property improvements since then would influence the current price.
4. Who would this property not be suitable for?
It may not suit buyers seeking a modern, move-in-ready home without projects, or those requiring significant indoor space or multiple bedrooms. The single-storey, sub-1,100 sqft layout prioritizes lot size over living area.
5. How can I find out the exact historical sale prices?
The exact sold prices are not publicly displayed in detail. As noted on the listing, you can request this information directly via email from the service, which provides the data manually without marketing spam.
