324 Aubrey Street – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile

This is a 1,032 sqft home built in 1925 on a 3,006 sqft lot in Wolseley, Winnipeg. Its assessed value is $316,000.

The property sits slightly below average in living area compared to others on its street, in its neighbourhood, and across the city. The lot size is average for Aubrey Street and Wolseley, but notably smaller than the citywide average. The assessed value is around average for all three levels, though it trails the neighbourhood average of $371,300 by about $55,000.

The home’s real standout feature is its age. Built in 1925, it’s older than most homes on the street (average 1917), older than most in Wolseley (average 1916), and significantly older than the citywide average of 1966. On Aubrey Street, it ranks in the top 19% for age, and in the top 15% for Wolseley. For buyers who value pre-war character, period details, or a home with established bones, this is a strong candidate.

The smaller footprint and living area also mean it could suit someone looking for a more manageable space—perhaps a first-time buyer, a downsizer, or someone who prioritizes location over square footage. The assessed value relative to the neighbourhood average suggests potential value if the interior or lot have room for improvement, but that would need on-site verification.

Who it suits: Buyers who want an older home in a desirable central neighbourhood (Wolseley) and are comfortable with a compact layout and a lot that’s smaller than typical for Winnipeg.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the living area compare to similar homes nearby?
It’s below average. On Aubrey Street, it ranks 88th out of 118 homes (top 75%), meaning about three-quarters of comparable homes on the street are larger. In Wolseley, it ranks 2,075th out of 2,349 (top 88%). The home is 1,032 sqft, while the street average is 1,243 sqft and the neighbourhood average is 1,622 sqft.

2. What makes the assessed value notable?
The value of $316,000 is around average for Aubrey Street, but it’s well below the Wolseley neighbourhood average of $371,300. Citywide, it’s also around average relative to comparables. The gap between the assessed value and the neighbourhood average is one of the more interesting points here—it could reflect the smaller size or suggest that similar nearby homes have more updates or larger lots.

3. Is the lot size typical for Wolseley?
It’s around average for both the street (2,982 sqft average) and the neighbourhood (3,434 sqft average), at 3,006 sqft. However, it’s significantly smaller than the citywide average of 6,570 sqft. For anyone used to suburban lot sizes, this will feel compact. But for Wolseley, it’s fairly standard.

4. Why does the year built matter for this property?
The home was built in 1925. On Aubrey Street and in Wolseley, that’s older than the average—but only by about eight to nine years. Citywide, it’s much older (the average comparable home in Winnipeg was built in 1966). This means it’s an older home in a neighbourhood of older homes, which is typical for Wolseley’s character. Buyers should expect the quirks and maintenance that come with a nearly 100-year-old house.

5. How should someone use these rankings in practice?
The rankings (e.g., “top 19%” for age on the street) give a quick sense of where this home sits relative to others, but they’re based on comparable home data, not exact duplicates. The living area and lot size rankings are more straightforward—bigger is generally ranked higher. The age ranking is inverted (older is ranked higher here). The assessed value ranking is neutral—around average means it’s neither over- nor under-valued relative to its peers, but it doesn’t account for interior condition, renovations, or layout. A site visit is essential.
