STUNNING GREENSPACE AND BEAUTIFUL LAKES – REAL ESTATE LISTINGS WINNIPEG

Winnipeg is home to some of the most breath-taking lakes and prairies. Island Lakes takes the best elements of those features and brings them stunningly to life throughout the neighbourhood.

Pristine greenspace surrounds the area, hugging its lakes and filling its parks. There are numerous places to bring a blanket and Bluetooth radio, and spend the afternoon on the grass under the summer sunshine.

The lakes, from where its name was born, are peaceful places to sit by and read a book or pass while walking the trails. They also add a special something when entertaining in a lakeside home.

Part of what makes Island Lakes such a great place to buy a home is the idea of having your own community, with its own parks, lakes, business section, and the overall feel of a small town, yet it is only minutes away from anywhere else in the city.
