Homes in West Broadway
West Broadway is a dense, walkable inner-city neighbourhood just west of downtown, and the housing carries real historic character. You see older character homes with period detail, some of them divided into suites, sitting alongside a large stock of apartment buildings and condominiums. That mix, plus the ongoing revitalization, makes it one of the more interesting places to buy close to the core, whether you want a character house to take on or a low-maintenance condo.
Urban, walkable and central
Location is the whole appeal here. You are steps from downtown and the University of Winnipeg, on foot to shops, cafes and green space.

It suits people who would rather trade suburban space for walkability and character.
Buying and selling here
Character homes here reward a careful look. On an older or divided house, check the wiring, especially knob-and-tube or aluminum if it has not been updated, the furnace, the roof, the windows and the basement, and confirm any suites are legal and permitted. On a condo, read the corporation documents, the fees and the reserve fund. Selling here, the character, the central location and the walkability are what set a home apart.
