Key Characteristics, Appeal & Ideal Buyer

This 2018-built, single-storey home in Bridgwater Trails stands out for its generous scale and established value. Its most defining characteristic is the exceptionally large, nearly 14,000 sqft lot, placing it in the top 1% for land area on its street and in the neighbourhood. Combined with a spacious 2,374 sqft living area and a renovated basement, it offers significant room for living and entertaining. The home’s substantial assessed value of $1.34M ranks it in the top 2% of the neighbourhood and highlights its premium market position.

The appeal lies in a rare blend of a modern, low-maintenance home with the privacy and potential of a large, established lot—a combination that can be hard to find in newer communities. It suits buyers looking for move-in readiness with space to grow, whether for a family seeking a large backyard, someone interested in future landscaping projects, or a buyer who values the equity and stability demonstrated by its strong value history. The attached garage and renovated basement add practical, finished space. A thoughtful perspective is that this property offers the "best of both worlds": the contemporary efficiencies of an 8-year-old home with the mature lot size typically found in older areas, all within the sought-after Bridgwater Trails community.
