Property Overview: 22 Sunwood Court, Bridgwater Lakes
Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal
This 2019-built two-storey home in Bridgwater Lakes offers modern living on a notably large lot. With 2,800 sqft of living space and an attached garage, it sits on a 15,765 sqft property that ranks in the top tier for size within its immediate area. The home’s appeal lies in its balance of being relatively new—avoiding immediate major renovations—while providing substantial outdoor space, a rarity in newer subdivisions. The basement exists but is unfinished, presenting a blank canvas for future expansion.
Its strongest suit is its exceptional positioning within the community. The property ranks better than 99% of its neighbourhood for lot size and in the top 5% for the year it was built, indicating it’s a newer home on one of the larger parcels available. This combination suits buyers looking for a modern layout without the premium of a brand-new build, but who prioritize generous yard space for family activities, gardening, or future projects. It would particularly fit growing families seeking stability in a sought-after area, or value-conscious purchasers who see potential in customizing the basement to their own taste and timeline.
Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does the "unfinished basement" condition mean?
The basement is included but has not been renovated. It provides the essential structure and utilities but requires finishing to become livable space, allowing the next owner to design it to their specific needs.
2. How significant is the lot size?
At nearly 16,000 sqft, the lot is a key feature. It ranks in the top 1% of the Bridgwater Lakes neighbourhood for land area, offering significantly more outdoor space than most comparable homes in this newer community.
3. The assessed value is listed at $73.90k; is that the price?
No. The assessed value is for municipal tax purposes and is typically much lower than the market value. The last known sale was in 2019 for $67.10k. The current listing price would be set by the seller based on current market conditions.
4. What do the ranking percentages (e.g., "Better than 99%") indicate?
These rankings show how this property compares to others in its immediate street, neighbourhood, and city for specific metrics like lot size or year built. For example, ranking better than 99% for lot size in the neighbourhood means this is one of the largest lots available in Bridgwater Lakes.
5. The home was built in 2019; what should I consider about its age?
As a seven-year-old home, major structural components should be sound, and it likely includes modern building standards and efficiencies. Buyers should still consider the condition of finishes, appliances, and systems (like HVAC) that are now entering a period where maintenance or replacement may arise, though likely not immediately.
