Property Overview
This 2018-built, single-storey home in Bridgwater Trails stands out for its generous proportions and strong market performance. Its primary appeal lies in the combination of a large, 13,892 sqft lot—a rarity for newer builds—and a spacious 2,445 sqft living area, placing it in the top tier of homes locally. The property has a renovated basement and an attached garage. Its assessed value and recent sale price rank in the top 1% of the neighbourhood, indicating a history of strong value retention and desirability.
It’s an ideal fit for buyers seeking space and stability in a modern, established community. It would particularly suit growing families looking for ample indoor and outdoor room, or value-conscious purchasers who appreciate a home with proven, above-average equity growth. A less obvious angle is its appeal to those wanting a newer build without the typical postage-stamp lot size, offering a sense of openness often found only in older areas.
