210 Home Street – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 1,594 sqft home built in 1909 on a 3,313 sqft lot, located on Home Street in Winnipeg’s Wolseley neighbourhood. Its assessed value is $330,000.
Where this property stands out is on its own street and in its lot size. Relative to other homes on Home Street, it has above-average living space (top 28%) and a notably larger lot—ranked in the top 8% locally. Its assessed value is also above average for the street (top 22%), reflecting that size advantage. However, compared to the broader Wolseley neighbourhood and the city as a whole, the property is closer to the middle. Living area is average for Wolseley; assessed value and lot size are near or below citywide norms.
The home is old even by Wolseley standards (built 1909, when the neighbourhood average is 1916). Citywide, it falls in the bottom 5% for age.
Who this suits: A buyer who values a generous lot on a good street in an established central neighbourhood—and is willing to work with an older home. The lot size is the clearest asset here, offering potential for gardens, additions, or simply more outdoor space than most nearby properties. It would appeal to someone who prioritizes location and land over a turnkey finish or modern construction. Less ideal for a buyer looking for a move-in-ready newer home or who wants a property that ranks well against citywide averages.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home compare to others in Wolseley?
It’s roughly average for the neighbourhood in living area and assessed value. The lot is slightly smaller than the Wolseley average (3,313 sqft vs. 3,434 sqft), but that gap is small. The home is a bit older than typical Wolseley homes, which average around 1916.
2. Is a larger lot in this area unusual?
On Home Street, yes—this lot is in the top 8%. In Wolseley as a whole, it’s about average. For Winnipeg, it’s small (top 83%, meaning 83% of city properties are larger). So the lot is a relative strength on the street, less so compared to the wider city.
3. What does the age of the home (1909) mean in practical terms?
An older home likely means original construction details (lath and plaster, knob-and-tube wiring, older foundation), but it depends on what updates have been done. Buyers should expect potentially higher maintenance, less insulation, and the need to confirm if systems (electrical, plumbing, roof) have been modernized. A pre-purchase inspection is strongly recommended.
4. How is the assessed value of $330,000 positioned?
It’s above average for Home Street (top 22%), but below average for Wolseley and Winnipeg overall. That suggests the home is valued more for its immediate street and lot than for neighbourhood-wide or citywide desirability. It could represent a more affordable entry point into the area compared to properties with similar living space but better condition or newer construction.
5. What’s the neighbourhood like?
Wolseley is a mature, central Winnipeg neighbourhood known for its tree-lined streets, older character homes, and proximity to the river, schools, and local shops. It tends to attract a mix of long-term residents, families, and buyers looking for walkable, established communities. The property’s ranking data reflects a stable, average-value area within the city.
