Property Overview
This two-storey home on Bonaventure Drive E in Fraipont offers a practical and modern living space. Built in 2017, it presents a move-in ready opportunity without the immediate concerns of an older home. Its key appeal lies in its balance: it provides above-average living space for both the neighbourhood and the city, within a home that is newer than most in the area. The attached garage and full basement add functional space. The data suggests it’s a solidly middle-of-the-road property for its immediate street, but stands out more favourably when compared to the wider city, particularly in terms of its living area and modern build year.
It would suit first-time buyers or young families looking for a modern home in a developed neighbourhood, who prioritize interior space over a large yard. It’s also a sensible fit for value-conscious buyers seeking a home that is newer than the Winnipeg average, potentially reducing near-term maintenance costs.

5. The home is newer than most in Fraipont. What does that mean for a buyer?
Built in 2017, this home is significantly newer than the Winnipeg city average (1966). In the context of Fraipont, however, it is actually older than about 90% of comparable homes, indicating the neighbourhood has many new developments. This means you benefit from modern construction standards, but the area itself is still actively growing.
