Property Overview: 251 Park West Drive

Key Characteristics, Appeal & Ideal Buyer

This well-maintained, one-storey home in Bridgwater Centre offers a practical and modern living space built in 2014. Its key characteristic is a renovated basement, adding valuable finished square footage to the 1,201 sqft main floor. The home sits on a decently sized lot (over 3,100 sqft) and features a detached garage.

The appeal lies in its balance of relative newness, recent updates, and its position within a desirable, modern neighbourhood. While not the largest home on the street, it ranks highly for its newer age compared to most of Winnipeg and offers a low-maintenance, single-level layout. The renovated basement is a significant value-add, providing flexible space for recreation, a home office, or guests.

This property would suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a modern, move-in-ready home in a planned community without the premium for a brand-new build. It’s also a practical fit for those who prioritize easy, single-level living but still want the bonus space a finished basement provides.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the lot size compare to others in the area?
At 3,106 sqft, the lot is above average for the immediate street (top 48%) and neighbourhood, offering good outdoor space for a home of this style.

2. The home was last sold in 2017. What does that indicate?
The seven-year ownership period suggests a stable history and a seller who has likely maintained the property, rather than a quick flip. The assessed value has risen appropriately since that last sale.

3. Is the living area smaller than nearby homes?
Yes, at 1,201 sqft, the main floor living area is compact. However, this is offset by the renovated basement, which effectively expands the usable space and can make the overall footprint feel more efficient and cost-effective to heat and maintain.

4. What does the "Top 91% in Winnipeg" ranking for year built mean?
This statistic means the home is newer than approximately 91% of all properties in Winnipeg, highlighting one of its core strengths: a modern build with contemporary standards, wiring, and materials, minimizing the worry of major aging system failures.

5. How does the detached garage impact winter use?
A detached garage is common in this community. It provides good storage and vehicle protection but requires a brief outdoor walk to the house—a trade-off for those who prefer no vehicle fumes or noise attached to the home itself.
