Property Overview & Key Characteristics
This well-situated one-storey home in Bridgwater Forest presents a compelling blend of space, recent updates, and strong value metrics. Its key appeal lies in its above-average lot size within the area, a recently renovated basement, and an attached garage. The home was built in 2010, offering modern construction without being brand new. The data suggests a property that has been well-maintained and is assessed at a value significantly higher than most in Winnipeg, indicating solid long-term investment potential.
It would particularly suit first-time buyers or downsizers looking for a manageable single-level layout in a family-oriented neighbourhood, as well as value-conscious buyers who appreciate a home with recent renovations (the basement) and a larger-than-standard yard. The strong assessment and recent sale price rankings suggest it also appeals to those with an eye for equity stability and resale value.
