Property Overview
20 Kern Drive is a spacious, two-storey home in Winnipeg's Kern Park neighbourhood. Built in 1962, it sits on a large, private lot and offers above-average living space. Its appeal lies in its generous proportions, both indoors and out, providing a sense of space and privacy that is increasingly rare. The home features a detached garage and an unrenovated basement, presenting a solid foundation for personalization. It would best suit buyers looking for a home with room to grow, who value a large yard over a modern, turn-key interior, and who appreciate a property with strong relative standing in its immediate area.
Key Characteristics & Ideal Buyer
The home’s standout feature is its substantial 9,456 sqft lot, which ranks in the top 1% of all properties in Kern Park. This offers exceptional outdoor potential for gardens, recreation, or future additions. With 2,227 sqft of living area, the house itself is significantly larger than most in the neighbourhood and city, placing it in the top tier locally. While the basement is unfinished and the home is of a classic vintage, this translates to an opportunity for a buyer to tailor the space to their own tastes without paying a premium for someone else’s renovations.
Its appeal is rooted in offering more house and far more land than the area average, at an assessed value that is competitive. This property would suit a growing family seeking room to spread out, a buyer with a vision for gradual updates who wants a blank canvas in the basement, or anyone who prioritizes a large, tranquil yard in a well-established community. It’s a property for those who measure value in square footage and potential, not just in immediate modern finishes.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home compare to others on the street and in Kern Park?
The data shows this property consistently ranks above average for its street and is elite within Kern Park for both living area and lot size. Its lot is notably one of the largest in the entire neighbourhood.
2. What does "basement, not renovated" imply?
This indicates the basement is in original or functional condition but has not been modernized or finished to contemporary standards. It presents potential for future development but will require investment.
3. The assessed value seems low compared to the city-wide average mentioned. Why is that?
There is a discrepancy in the data; the city-wide average assessed value listed (390k) is likely a typographical error in the source material, as it doesn't align with the other figures. The more relevant comparisons are the local ones, where this home's assessment is in the top 5% for Kern Park.
4. What can the sale history tell me?
The home sold in August 2021 for an estimated range of $385,000 to $415,000. For the precise sale price, you can request the exact figure via email from the source site.
5. Is the large lot a maintenance burden or an asset?
It can be both. The lot size is a significant asset for privacy and space, but it does require more upkeep for landscaping and lawn care compared to a standard city lot. This is a worthwhile consideration for long-term planning.
