88 Martin Avenue West · Glenelm, Winnipeg
The Home
Some homes are updated. This one has been cared for — and there's a difference you can feel the moment you step through the front door.
Set on a quiet, tree-lined Glenelm street, 88 Martin Avenue West carries more than a century of character: rich original woodwork, hardwood floors, nine-foot ceilings on the main floor, and light that pours through windows in every room. A screened front porch welcomes you in; a formal dining area, an updated kitchen with glass-insert cabinetry and tiled backsplash, and a brand-new powder room round out the main floor.
Upstairs, three bedrooms and a refinished den share a beautifully gutted-and-rebuilt four-piece bathroom. The hardwoods continue, and a walk-up staircase leads to the third-storey attic — a rare bonus in homes of this era, ready for whatever you imagine. Downstairs, the basement adds a bedroom, bathroom, laundry and generous storage.
Out back: a great deck for summer evenings, a fenced yard, and a detached garage off the lane. This is the Glenelm home buyers wait for — character on the outside, peace of mind underneath.
