Highlights & common questions: 257 Bernadine Crescent, Winnipeg

Property Overview: 257 Bernadine Crescent, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated Buchanan bungalow presents a compelling opportunity centered on its generous lot and move-in-ready updates. The key features include a renovated basement, a private in-ground pool, and a detached garage, all situated on a large 7,539 sqft lot that ranks within the top 17% for size on its street.

The primary appeal lies in its established, spacious setting and its value relative to the area. The land size is significantly above average for both the immediate crescent and the wider Buchanan neighbourhood, offering ample outdoor space for gardening, recreation, or future expansion. With a renovated basement and a pool, the home provides immediate lifestyle benefits without the need for major projects. The 1972 build date is notably newer than most on the street, suggesting potentially fewer concerns with aging core components.

This property would suit buyers looking for a single-storey layout in a mature area, who prioritize private outdoor space over a large interior footprint. It’s ideal for those seeking a turnkey home with summer entertainment features already in place, or for long-term owners who value the potential that a large, premium lot in a established community holds.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the property’s value compare to the area?
The home’s last sale price and its current assessed value are both above average for Bernadine Crescent and the Buchanan neighbourhood, reflecting its desirable lot size and updated features. City-wide, its value is around the median.

2. Is the lot size typical for the area?
No, the lot is a standout feature. At over 7,500 sqft, it is larger than approximately 83% of comparable lots on the same street and 86% of those in Buchanan, offering more privacy and space than most nearby properties.

3. What does the "renovated basement" include?
The listing confirms the basement is renovated but does not specify the scope. A viewing or inquiry with the listing agent is necessary to determine the finish quality, layout, and whether it includes a legal secondary suite or additional bedrooms.

4. What are the annual costs associated with the pool?
Prospective buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance, increased summer utility costs for water and heating/filtration, insurance implications, and seasonal opening/closing services.

5. The home was built in 1972. Are there any common period-specific concerns?
While newer than many on its street, a home from this era may still contain original components like plumbing, electrical, or windows that could be near the end of their service life. A thorough inspection is recommended to assess the condition of these systems alongside the recent renovations.
