Property Overview
15 Bellflower Road is a modern two-storey home in Winnipeg's Bridgwater Lakes neighbourhood. Built in 2014, it sits on a generous 4,332 sqft lot and features a renovated basement and a detached garage. The home’s assessed value is $500,000.
Key Features & Ideal Buyer
The primary appeal of this property lies in its balance of modern construction and established lot size. Being only 12 years old, it offers contemporary building standards without the premium of a brand-new build, while the lot is larger than most in its immediate area. The already-renovated basement adds immediate functional space and value.
Its value metrics present an interesting profile: while the home itself is newer than over 90% of Winnipeg, its living space is more compact than many in its own neighbourhood. This suggests a property that prioritizes outdoor space and a modern footprint over sheer interior square footage. It would suit a buyer looking for a low-maintenance, modern home in a planned community who values a sizable yard for gardening, pets, or recreation. It’s also a practical fit for those wanting move-in readiness with the renovation work already completed, avoiding immediate projects.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the assessed value compare to the last sale price?
The home was last sold in July 2021 for $440,000. The current assessed value of $500,000 reflects market changes and the renovated basement since that sale.
2. Is the living space small for the area?
At 1,335 sqft, the living area is below the neighbourhood average. This indicates the home’s layout may be efficient or focused on specific living areas, making the larger lot a compensating feature.
3. What do the "Top %" rankings mean?
These rankings compare this property against others on its street, in Bridgwater Lakes, and across Winnipeg. For example, being "Top 6%" for year built on its street means it is newer than 94% of houses on Bellflower Road.
4. What is the neighbourhood like?
Bridgwater Lakes is a master-planned community in Winnipeg known for its lakes, pathways, and newer housing stock. This home is centrally located on a street with very similar, recently built properties.
5. Why is there a detached garage instead of attached?
This is a common design choice in many newer subdivisions. A detached garage can offer more architectural flexibility, potential for a larger driveway, and separation between vehicle storage and living quarters.
