Property Overview: 106 Lawndale Avenue, Norwood West

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home, built in 1941, presents a classic Winnipeg character property with a distinct advantage: its land. The nearly 6,000 sqft lot is notably larger than most in the immediate area, ranking in the top 4% on its street. This offers rare potential for gardens, outdoor living, or expansion in the established Norwood West neighbourhood. The 1,176 sqft living area is compact compared to some neighbours, suggesting a more manageable footprint that prioritizes lot size over interior square footage. With an assessed value of $434k, it sits around the average for the area, indicating a fair market positioning.

Its appeal lies in this balance. It suits a buyer who values a generous, private yard in a mature community more than a large interior. It could be ideal for downsizers seeking lower maintenance without sacrificing outdoor space, or for hands-on owners who see the potential in a classic home and a lot that stands out from the crowd. The data shows it last sold for an estimated $400k-$450k in late 2022, reflecting steady demand.
