Property Overview: 339 Montgomery Avenue, Riverview, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 1950s home in Riverview stands out for its above-average size and value within its immediate context. With 2,084 sqft of living space, it is notably larger than most homes on its street and in the wider neighborhood, ranking in the top 4% and 7% respectively. The assessed value of $465k is also consistently above average across all comparison levels, suggesting a premium valuation for its location and scale. The lot size is generous for the area at just under 6,000 sqft.
The appeal lies in securing a property that outperforms local norms for space—a relative rarity on a street of mostly smaller homes. It suits buyers looking for established character in Riverview but who need more room than typical offerings, possibly growing families or those who value spacious interiors over a newer build. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home is older than the Winnipeg average, it is actually newer than many in Riverview, potentially meaning fewer issues common to the neighborhood's oldest stock. The data indicates you are paying a premium for space and location within the community, rather than for a recently built structure.
