Property Overview: 6 Eagleview Road, Bridgwater Lakes
Key Features & Ideal Buyer
This two-storey home in the popular Bridgwater Lakes community offers a balanced, modern living package. Built in 2016, it is newer than over 90% of homes on its street and 93% in Winnipeg, meaning major components like the roof, windows, and HVAC are relatively young and unlikely to need immediate replacement. The 1,832 sqft home sits on a generous 5,776 sqft lot, providing ample private outdoor space—a notable feature in newer neighbourhoods. A key highlight is the renovated basement, adding immediate functional living area without the need for a future project.
Its appeal lies in this combination of a low-maintenance, turn-key home with room to grow, all within a sought-after, master-planned area. The property ranks highly for its assessed value, placing in the top 6% in Winnipeg, which suggests it is a substantial asset relative to the broader market.
This home would suit a young family or professional couple looking for a move-in-ready property in a modern community. It’s also a prudent choice for a value-conscious buyer who appreciates that the "newness" premium of a 2016 build has moderated, while the home still has decades of life before major systems require renewal.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the lot size compare to others in the area?
At 5,776 sqft, the lot is larger than 63% of those on Eagleview Road, offering more yard space than many of its immediate neighbours—a valuable asset in newer subdivisions.
2. What does the "renovated basement" typically imply?
While specifics should be verified, in a 2016 home this usually means the previously unfinished basement has been professionally finished to add living space, such as a recreation room, bedroom, or home office.
3. The last sale was in 2016. Is that a concern?
Not inherently. The owner has lived there since the home was new, indicating stability. The significant jump in assessed value since that purchase reflects strong market appreciation in the area.
4. How does this home fit within Bridgwater Lakes?
It sits in the middle range for living area size within the neighbourhood but ranks higher for lot size and being newer. It’s a well-positioned, average-to-above-average property within the community.
5. The assessed value seems high relative to the last sale price. Why?
The assessed value is a current municipal valuation for tax purposes, reflecting market growth over eight years. The 2016 sale price was the original purchase price of the new build. The difference highlights the property's appreciation since construction.
