Property Overview: 147 Eagleview Road, Bridgwater Lakes
Key Characteristics, Appeal & Ideal Buyer
This two-storey home, built in 2015, sits on a generous 7,065 sqft lot in Winnipeg's Bridgwater Lakes neighbourhood. Its key features include a renovated basement and an attached garage. The appeal lies in a balanced combination of modern construction, above-average lot size, and a strong position within the broader Winnipeg market. The property ranks in the top 16% of the city for lot size and the top 8% for the newness of its build, offering a sense of space and contemporary infrastructure that can be harder to find in older areas.
The home would suit buyers looking for a move-in ready property in a developed suburban community, particularly those who value a large outdoor space and the potential that comes with a finished basement. A thoughtful perspective is its apparent value trajectory; while its current assessed value places it in the top 6% city-wide, its last sale price in 2016 was comparatively modest. This suggests a significant increase in value over eight years, which may appeal to buyers interested in areas with a history of strong appreciation. It’s a solid choice for growing families or professionals seeking a established, modern home without being on the frontier of new development.
