Property Overview
81 Lucerne Place is a modern, two-storey home in Winnipeg's Fraipont neighbourhood. Built in 2021, it offers 1,871 sqft of living space on a 4,593 sqft lot, featuring an attached garage and an unfinished basement. The home’s primary appeal lies in its contemporary construction, which means fewer immediate maintenance concerns and modern building standards. Its living space is comfortably above average for both the neighbourhood and the city, providing ample room without being overly large.
This property is well-suited for young families or professionals seeking a move-in ready home in a developing area. It also appeals to value-conscious buyers looking for a newer build that ranks highly for its assessed value compared to most of the city, suggesting a solid investment in a desirable age bracket of homes. A less obvious advantage is its position within its immediate street context: while newer than most on Lucerne Place, it blends into an area of similarly aged properties, offering neighbourhood consistency rather than standing out as an anomaly.
