102 Avior Drive – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 2023-built home with 1,766 square feet of living space on a 5,018-square-foot lot. Assessed at $533,000, it sits above average in nearly every category when compared to its street, neighbourhood, and city.
The strongest point is the land. On Avior Drive, this property has the largest lot—ranked #1 out of 44 homes. In the West Kildonan Industrial area, it’s in the top 15% for land size. That combination of a newer home (built just last year) with a generous lot is relatively rare. Many newer infill builds in Winnipeg sacrifice yard space; here, you get both a modern floor plan and a good-sized outdoor area.
The living area is solid but not exceptional—slightly above the street average, and comfortably above citywide medians. The assessed value reflects that consistency: top 16% on the street and top 15% citywide.
Who it suits: Buyers who want a newer home without a cookie-cutter lot. It’s a good fit for someone who values outdoor space but doesn’t want to deal with an older house or major renovations. Families might appreciate the yard; investors or owner-occupants alike would benefit from the strong value retention of a top-tier assessed property. It’s less suited for anyone seeking maximum square footage per dollar, as the premium here is tied more to the land and new construction.
FAQ
1. How does the lot size compare to other newer homes in the area?
Most recently built homes in West Kildonan Industrial sit on smaller lots. This property’s land area ranks in the top 15% for the neighbourhood, and it’s the largest lot on its street. That’s unusual for a 2023 build.
2. Is the assessed value above or below what I’d expect for this age and size?
It’s above average at every comparison level. The assessment is about $35,000 higher than the street median and roughly $140,000 above the citywide average for comparable homes. That aligns with the larger lot and newer construction.
3. How does the year built affect property tax or insurance?
Newer construction generally means lower insurance premiums and fewer immediate maintenance costs. The 2023 build date also puts you in the top 1% of homes citywide by age, which is worth noting for long-term ownership.
4. What’s the trade-off between living area and land area here?
The living area is slightly above street average, but the land area is the best on the street. If you prioritize indoor square footage over yard space, you might find larger homes elsewhere on Avior Drive—but you’d sacrifice the lot. This property balances the two with an emphasis on outdoor space.
5. How does this rank compared to similar homes citywide?
It’s in the top 18% for living area, top 15% for assessed value, and top 1% for year built citywide. Land area drops to the 54th percentile because many older Winnipeg homes sit on much larger lots (averaging 6,570 sqft). So it’s not a standout for lot size across the whole city, but within its immediate context it’s exceptional.
