Property Overview: 379 Perth Avenue, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home on Perth Avenue in the Jefferson neighbourhood presents a solid, above-average offering within its local context. Built in 1952, its key appeal lies in its renovated basement and a living space (1,281 sq. ft.) that ranks comfortably above average for both its street and area. The detached garage adds practical value. The standout feature is its financial positioning: with an assessed value of $342,000, it sits in the top 10-11% of comparable homes in Jefferson and on Perth Avenue itself, suggesting strong value retention for the area. The lot size is typical for the neighbourhood.

Its appeal is grounded in offering more interior space than many nearby homes while holding a valuation that outperforms its immediate peers. It would suit a practical buyer looking for a move-in-ready home with modernized basics in a stable neighbourhood, particularly someone who values a home that metrics indicate is a strong performer on its own street. It’s a property for those who appreciate a renovated lower level for extra living space and who see the value in a home that already stands above local averages in key financial and spatial metrics.
