Property Summary: 552 Yale Avenue E, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a compact, one-storey home in Kern Park, built in 1959. With 904 sqft of living space and a renovated basement, it offers efficient, single-level living. The property sits on a standard city lot of just over 4,700 sqft and includes a detached garage.

Its primary appeal lies in its position as a well-situated, manageable property in a mature neighbourhood. The data reveals some thoughtful perspectives: while the home's size is below average for its immediate street and the city, its assessed value is notably strong for the Kern Park area, ranking in the top 14% locally. This suggests the property is perceived to have good value within its specific community context. Furthermore, it is a relatively newer build compared to many homes on its street and in Kern Park, potentially meaning fewer concerns about the age of major components.

This home would best suit first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors looking for a lower-maintenance property in a central Winnipeg neighbourhood. It’s a practical choice for someone who values location and lot size over square footage, and who appreciates a home that has already seen some updates, like the basement renovation.
