Property Overview: 178 Sablewood Road, Bridgwater Lakes
Key Characteristics & Appeal
This is a well-maintained, modern two-storey home built in 2012, situated on a generous lot in Winnipeg's Bridgwater Lakes community. Its key appeal lies in its balance of contemporary living and established neighbourhood feel. The home features a renovated basement and a detached garage, offering flexible space and practicality.
The property will particularly suit first-time buyers or young families looking for a move-in-ready home in a newer suburban area without the premium of a brand-new build. Its appeal is grounded in value: while its living space is comfortable, the lot size is above average for the street, providing better outdoor potential than many nearby homes. The data suggests a thoughtful perspective: this home isn't necessarily the largest or newest on the block, but it represents a solid, mid-tier option in a desirable area. It’s for buyers who prioritize a renovated, low-maintenance property on a good-sized lot over having the absolute largest floor plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home compare to others in Bridgwater Lakes?
The home sits in the middle to upper range for lot size on its street but is a more modest size in terms of living area compared to many in the wider neighbourhood. This indicates a property that offers valuable outdoor space.
2. What does the assessed value versus last sold price tell us?
The assessed value is significantly lower than the 2021 sale price of $470k, which is common. The sale price is a more current indicator of market value, while the assessment is for municipal tax purposes.
3. Is the renovated basement a legal suite?
The listing notes a renovated basement but does not specify it as a legal secondary suite. Buyers should verify the permits and compliance of the renovations with the city.
4. What are the implications of the home's age?
Built in 2012, major components like the roof, HVAC, and appliances are likely original and may be approaching the middle or end of their typical lifespans, so a thorough inspection is advisable.
5. How does the detached garage affect winter use?
A detached garage is a plus for storage and projects, but buyers should consider the convenience of accessing their vehicle in winter compared to an attached garage.
