Property Overview: 81 Lawndale Avenue, Norwood West, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home stands out for its generous proportions, both in living space and land size. With 2,094 sqft of living area, it ranks in the top 9% for size compared to homes on its street, in Norwood West, and across Winnipeg. The nearly 6,000 sqft lot is particularly notable, placing it in the elite top 4% for land area on Lawndale Avenue. Built in 1944, the property is older than the city-wide average but is consistent with the established character of its immediate neighbourhood.

The primary appeal lies in its above-average scale and established setting. The assessed value of $543k reflects its premium position, ranking in the top 6% on its street. This isn't a starter home; it's a substantial property in a mature area. It would best suit buyers looking for a classic, spacious home with a large yard, who value the character of older neighbourhoods over newer subdivisions. It's a solid choice for someone seeking room to grow, entertain, or garden, and who appreciates a home that already holds significant value within its community.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the assessed value relate to the likely selling price?
The assessed value of $543k is for municipal tax purposes and is a strong indicator of the home's relative worth in the market. It consistently ranks in the top 10-15% across all comparison levels, suggesting a premium property. The last known sale was between $450k-$500k in early 2022, so market conditions and updates to the home will determine the final list price.

2. What should I consider with a home from 1944?
While the age is typical for Norwood West, it necessitates a focus on the condition of major systems (like plumbing, electrical, and the foundation) and the roof. The potential for character features is high, but so is the likelihood that some systems have been updated over the years. A thorough inspection is essential.

3. The lot size is a standout feature. What does this mean practically?
A lot of this size (top 4% on the street) offers rare potential in an established area. It provides ample private outdoor space, room for additions like a garage or workshop, gardening opportunities, and a greater sense of privacy than smaller lots—all while being close to city amenities.

4. How does this property compare to others nearby?
The data shows it is larger in both living area and land size than most comparable homes on its street and in Norwood West. Its assessed value is also significantly higher than the local averages, confirming it is positioned as a premium offering in the area.

5. How can I get the exact historical sold prices?
The site provides sold price ranges for context. Due to industry regulations, exact MLS sold figures are not displayed publicly here. You can request the full, verified transaction history by emailing the site directly for a manual lookup, which they provide without using your email for marketing.
