Key Characteristics & Appeal

This well-situated home in Island Lakes offers a practical and comfortable living space with notable strengths in its condition and value. Built in 2004, it is a newer construction compared to most of Winnipeg, requiring less immediate concern for major aging components. The 1,840 sqft living area provides above-average space for the neighbourhood and city, comfortably accommodating family life. A key feature is the renovated basement, adding functional living space. The home’s assessed value consistently ranks above average for its street, neighbourhood, and city-wide, suggesting a solid investment in a desirable area.

The appeal lies in its move-in readiness and prudent positioning within the market. It suits buyers seeking a modern, low-maintenance home in a mature, established neighbourhood like Island Lakes. It’s an ideal match for growing families or professionals who value space and a recent build year over a very large lot, as the property sits on a standard-sized parcel for the street. The attached garage and recent strong sale history add to its practical, family-oriented profile.
