Property Overview: 249 Appleford Gate, Bridgwater Trails
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This well-maintained two-storey home in the popular Bridgwater Trails neighbourhood presents a balanced offering for modern suburban living. Built in 2016, it sits on a generous 3,836 sqft lot and features 1,938 sqft of living space, a renovated basement, and a detached garage. Its core appeal lies in its established yet young build age, recent updates, and strong positional metrics within a desirable community.
The home’s data reveals thoughtful strengths. It ranks in the top quartile for lot size on its street, offering more outdoor space than many nearby properties. Financially, it shows stability; the assessed value and recent 2024 sale price are closely aligned and rank in the top 10% of the street, suggesting it is perceived as a premium property on its block. The renovated basement adds immediate functional living space without the need for a project.
This property would suit practical move-in-ready buyers—perhaps young families or professionals—who value Bridgwater Trails’ amenities and seek a home that already has key upgrades. It also appeals to the value-conscious buyer who appreciates that the home sits on a larger-than-average lot for the area, a feature that is increasingly rare in newer subdivisions and offers future potential for enjoyment or expansion.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does this home compare to others in Bridgwater Trails?
The home is competitively positioned. Its living area is larger than 93% of homes on Appleford Gate, and its lot size is in the top 27% on the street. Compared to the wider neighbourhood, it holds its own with above-average rankings for lot size and value.
2. What does the sale history indicate about the property’s value?
The sale history shows consistent and stable value growth since its original 2016 purchase, with very minor fluctuations between the 2022 and 2024 sales. The close match between the last sale price and the current assessed value indicates a stable market perception.
3. Is the basement renovation a major factor?
Yes. A professionally renovated basement is a significant functional and financial advantage. It immediately adds usable square footage for recreation, a home office, or guest space, which many comparable homes may not have, and saves the buyer from a major renovation expense.
4. Who might this property not suit as well?
Buyers seeking a brand-new build or those who prefer a home with a fully finished backyard from day one might look at newer constructions. Additionally, someone requiring an attached garage for our harsh winters may see the detached garage as a minor inconvenience.
5. Are there any less obvious points to consider about the location?
The property is surrounded by very similar homes from the same era, creating a cohesive streetscape. This can be positive for maintaining uniform property values. However, it also means any future exterior upgrades or expansions should be mindful of the existing neighbourhood character to protect that value.
