The Element Condominiums at 155 Sherbrook St. Built 2013 with 44 residential condos. West Broadway, close to Wolseley, Misericordia Hospital, UofW campus..
Located on the east side of the street, from 3040 to 3080 Pembina Hwy. we find the Chimney Ridge Condos.
Chimney Ridge Condos are made up of 98 condos in 5 separate buildings. Â There are 2 distinct styles of units, each 1100 sq ft in size. Â One type is the main floor, one-level unit, and the other type is a two-story unit which is actually located ABOVE the main floor condos. Â This second type of condo requires the owner to walk up one flight of stairs to get to the living-room/dining-room/kitchen space, and then walk up a 2nd flight of stairs to get to the 2 bedrooms and bathroom.
Just the usual condo-restrictions, such as “No Laundry to be hung from the balcony” etc. Â Pets are allowed, so long as they don’t pose a nuisance to other owners.
Gross Property Taxes are currently at approx. $2115.00 per unit. Â Of course, as an owner who actually lives in their unit, you would qualify for the Provincial Home Owners Assistance Rebate, similar to when you own a house.
Condo fees are $210 per month, which includes snow removal, property maintenance and management fees. Â Owners pay for their own hydro, telephone, and water bills.
All units have their own in-suite laundry, and units have one parking spot included. Â At this time (Jan 2012) no additional parking spots were available for rent, although a neighbouring condo complex WAS renting out a few stalls to owners of Chimney Ridge Condominiums.
This condominium is a bare-bones condo. Â No pool, fitness room or other amenities, which helps to keep the condo fees nice and low. Â Of special note is the fact that the main floor units feature a small yard, while the upper condos have a balcony. Â All units have central furnace and c/air conditioners.
Located right on a bus route of Pembina Hwy, and just south of the University of Manitoba, this condo complex has become very popular with students and property investors who are looking to purchase the units and rent them out.
During the 2 yr period of 2010-2011, condos at Chimney Ridge have sold for between $170,000 and $190,000  (MLS® stats).  Looking at sales in 2016, prices have remained fairly stable, with units selling btw $160K and $187K.

Downtown Winnipeg might not be the first place you think of when you are considering buying a condominium but there are some beautiful buildings and living options coming up. From funky warehouse style condos to luxurious and spaces living space, downtown Winnipeg has it all. And beside the fact that you can find a great place to live, downtown Winnipeg condo living is a lifestyle all of its own.
The Portage Place mall has always been a place where you can shop for clothes, shoes, music, and more and it is still that way today. The Portage Place mall has some great retail stores but you don’t have to stop there. City Place has more shopping as does The Bay and they are both accessible through the connecting overpass walkways. That means in the winter you don’t have to brave the cold! The walkways downtown allow you to move around downtown through shopping areas, restaurants, businesses, and the library, too. You can even get to Winnipeg’s one of a kind underground shopping area – Winnipeg Square.
Downtown Winnipeg has some of the most culturally diverse dining experiences of any area of the city. You’ll find vegetarian restaurants like the Affinity Vegetarian Garden Restaurant and Mondragon Bookstore and Coffeehouse. You can enjoy Chinese, Japanese, or Thai food, or you can choose more traditional fare. The options are endless and they are all within walking distance when you live in a downtown Winnipeg condo.
There are many theatres where you can enjoy a night of movies or plays. If you want to see one of the newest releases The Towne theatre has many movies to choose from. The Globe Theatre in Portage Place mall has more artsy types of movies as does Cinematheque. The IMAX theatre lets you experience things in an even bigger way. If live performances are more your thing you can enjoy a show at the Prairie Theatre Exchange or at the Manitoba Theatre Center.
The Forks is a great place to spend the day in the summer but in the winter the indoor stores and restaurants always provide a great shopping experience. And don’t forget all the good food!

There’s always something special going on at the MTS Center. Don’t forget that this is where all the hockey games are going to be this year with our new NHL hockey team. You can also enjoy concerts and other exciting events.
Downtown Winnipeg is the place you want to be if you love the night life. There are bars and lounges scattered all over downtown Winnipeg and if you buy a downtown Winnipeg condo you’ll never have far to go to get home.
