Property Summary: 299 Kent Road, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This two-storey home in East Elmwood is defined by a significant and rare advantage: its land. Sitting on an 8,259 sqft lot, the property is in the top 3% on its street and top 1% in the neighbourhood for lot size, offering exceptional outdoor space potential that is increasingly hard to find. The 1,602 sqft living area is comfortably above average for both the neighbourhood and city, providing ample room inside.

The home’s primary appeal lies in this generous land-to-building ratio, presenting opportunities for gardening, expansion, or simply enjoying a large private yard. It suits practical buyers who value space and potential over immediate turn-key finishes, as the basement is noted as unrenovated. It’s an ideal match for a growing family seeking room to play and grow, a hands-on owner looking to add value over time, or someone who prioritizes outdoor living space in a well-established community. The 1959 build date places it in a mature area with character, and its assessed value is strong for East Elmwood, suggesting a solid foundation for the investment.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the true standout feature of this property?
Beyond the living space, the exceptionally large lot is the defining asset. It offers a level of privacy and versatility that is uncommon for the area and represents long-term value.

2. What should I budget for beyond the purchase price?
Given the note of an unrenovated basement, buyers should factor in potential costs for modernizing or finishing that space to suit their needs, as well as expected maintenance for a home of this age.

3. How does the property compare in value to its neighbours?
The home’s assessed value is above average for East Elmwood, likely reflecting its larger living area and lot size. Its last sale price in 2019 was also strong for the neighbourhood, indicating consistent market recognition of its scale.

4. Is the large lot a benefit for future expansion?
The lot size certainly creates the potential for additions like a garage, workshop, or sunroom, subject to local zoning and permit approvals. It’s a key feature for buyers with future renovation plans.

5. What is the neighbourhood context for a home like this?
In East Elmwood, this home is notably above average in both living area and lot size. It offers more interior and exterior space than most local offerings, positioning it as a spacious option within a community of generally more modest lots.
