Wonderful Wellington

One of the most indelible images of Wellington Crescent is of the stately, early 20th-century homes lining the street amid stands of mature trees.

However, while those River Heights North classics garner attention for their distinctive designs, some of them can be quite dated inside. But that’s not an issue with the 1,565 sq. ft., two-storey home found at 1324 Wellington between Lindsay and Borebank streets, says Nicola Guttormson of RE/MAX Executives Realty.

“This home was actually built in 1986 and has been well maintained from the original design,” she says. “It’s an architectural treasure that was designed by some of Winnipeg’s most prominent architects, including Les Stechesen. As soon as you step onto the walkway that leads up to the home, you feel a serene energy.”

Indeed, there’s a certain magical energy that seems to radiate from the long, deep lot.
