Property Overview: 20 Corne Street, Winnipeg
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This one-storey home in Kildonan Drive is defined by a significant and rare advantage: its land. Sitting on a 17,487 sqft lot, the property ranks in the top 3% of the local area and top 2% city-wide for lot size, offering exceptional outdoor space that is uncommon in Winnipeg. The house itself, built in 1960, is newer than most in the immediate neighborhood and features a renovated basement and an attached garage. With 1,044 sqft of living space, it is comfortably sized and sits around the city-wide average.
The primary appeal lies in its potential. The very large, flat lot presents opportunities for expansion, gardening, or recreational use that simply don't exist with typical urban lots. The home’s assessed value is strong for the Kildonan Drive area, suggesting it is well-regarded relative to its peers. This property would best suit a buyer who values space and privacy over a large interior, and who may see the land itself as the main asset—whether for future investment, a long-term family home with room to grow, or simply to enjoy substantial private outdoor space.
