Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This home at 80 Lynn Lake Drive in the Meadows neighbourhood stands out primarily for its generous living space. With 1,749 square feet, it offers significantly more room than most comparable homes on its street, in the area, and across Winnipeg. Built in 1984, it is a well-established property on a standard 5,400 sqft lot. The appeal lies in this combination of above-average interior space within a mature, settled community. The assessed value is consistent with area averages, suggesting a market-aligned valuation.
It would particularly suit buyers who prioritize interior square footage over a newer build or an exceptionally large yard. It’s a practical choice for those needing room to grow without venturing into premium-priced segments, and for buyers who appreciate a neighbourhood with a proven history and stable values.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home's size truly compare to others?
The living area is a key strength. It ranks in the top 2% on its own street and the top 17% within the Meadows, meaning it offers more interior space than the vast majority of direct neighbours.
2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
The assessed value is a municipal figure for tax purposes. While it places the property around the average for its area, the actual market price is determined by current conditions, the home's condition, and buyer demand. The last known sale was between $300k-$350k in 2019.
3. What are the implications of the home being built in 1984?
A home of this age typically means established landscaping and mature community infrastructure. Buyers should budget for potential updates to major systems like roofing, windows, or HVAC, which may be nearing the end of their service life, while also appreciating the character and build quality of that era.
4. How does the lot size compare?
At 5,400 sqft, the lot is very typical for the Meadows area. It provides a standard suburban yard space but is not unusually large or small compared to nearby properties.
