27 Avior Drive – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a newly built home (2024) in West Kildonan Industrial, with 1,870 sq ft of living space on a 4,249 sq ft lot. Its assessed value is $518,000.
The property’s strongest feature is its age. It ranks in the top 1% city-wide for newer construction (compared to an average build year of 1966 across Winnipeg). Living space is also well above average—ranking in the top 15% city-wide—so the home offers notably more room than typical local homes without being oversized. The lot size is close to the neighbourhood average, but somewhat smaller than the city-wide norm, which is common for newer infill-style builds.
This home would likely suit buyers who want a modern, low-maintenance property in an established area. It’s a good fit for someone who prioritizes energy efficiency, modern finishes, and a newer floor plan over a large yard or a historic character home. The location offers proximity to industrial and commercial amenities, so it may particularly appeal to buyers who work in the area or want quick access to major routes.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the property compare to others on Avior Drive?
It ranks 9th out of 44 homes for living space (top 20%) and 10th for assessed value (top 23%). It’s the newest home on the street.
2. Is a smaller lot a drawback here?
Not necessarily. The lot is very close to the street average (4,249 sq ft vs. 4,457 sq ft) and slightly above the neighbourhood average. The trade-off is a newer home with less yard maintenance required.
3. What does the assessed value of $518,000 mean for taxes?
It means property taxes will be based on that valuation. Because the home is new and assessed near market value, tax bills should be predictable and reflect current conditions—unlike older homes with lower assessed values that may jump after reassessment.
4. Is this a good investment compared to older homes in Winnipeg?
Newer homes tend to have lower immediate maintenance costs and better energy performance, which can offset a higher purchase price. However, the lot is smaller than many city-wide comparables, so long-term land appreciation may be more modest than a larger lot in a similar area.
5. How does the home compare to similar new builds in the city?
It falls in the top 15% for living space and top 1% for newness. While a handful of newer homes have larger floor plans or more land, this property sits in a sweet spot: above average in size but not at the upper extreme, which keeps the price more grounded.
