Property Overview: 286 Bridgeland Drive N, Bridgwater Forest

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated bi-level home in Bridgwater Forest offers a practical and modern living foundation. Built in 2009, its key characteristics include a renovated basement, a detached garage, and a generous 4,257 sqft lot. With 998 sqft of living space, the home provides efficient, single-level living above grade, complemented by the finished lower level.

The appeal lies in its balance of a established, family-friendly neighbourhood and a home that’s ready for personalization. The renovated basement adds immediate functional space, while the large lot presents opportunities for gardening, play, or future outdoor upgrades. Its assessed value ranks highly within the street and city, suggesting a solid value proposition for the area.

This property would suit first-time buyers seeking a manageable home with recent updates, or downsizers looking for a low-maintenance layout without sacrificing yard space. It’s also a sensible fit for pragmatic buyers who value a strong lot size and the potential to add their own touches over time, rather than a fully turn-key property.


Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home compare to others on the street?
The property sits on a larger-than-average lot for the street (ranking better than 41%) and has a higher assessed value than 75% of its neighbours, indicating it is a premium offering on this block. However, the living area is more compact than many nearby homes.

2. What is the neighbourhood like?
Bridgwater Forest is a master-planned, family-oriented community in Winnipeg known for its parks, pathways, and newer amenities. This home is in the established, original section of the neighbourhood, offering mature landscaping and settled surroundings.

3. What does "renovated basement" typically include here?
While specific finishes should be verified, in a home of this age and style, a renovated basement usually means a finished, legal living space that may include a rec room, additional bedrooms, or a bathroom, adding significantly to the home’s usable square footage.

4. Are there any obvious concerns from the data?
The data shows the home’s living area is smaller than most in the broader neighbourhood and Winnipeg. This highlights its efficient use of space but means storage and room layout should be carefully considered for your needs.

5. Why is there a notable difference between the last sold price and the current assessed value?
The home sold in 2016 for $382,000. The current assessed value of $469,000 reflects market appreciation over eight years and likely includes the value added by the basement renovation, which may have occurred after the last sale.
