South Pointe
This newly developed part of Winnipeg is an ideal family-oriented neighbourhood with beautiful new homes, quiet cul-de-sacs, and beautiful views of the prairies!
Prairie Pointe & South Pointe are very desirable neighbourhoods with a vast network of lakes, paths, and parks. With the majority of the construction since 2011, these homes offer stylish features and modern layouts!

Being extremely new areas in Winnipeg, with construction still ongoing, South Pointe doesn’t have their own community centres yet, however, they already offer plenty of beautiful parks and trails to keep the family busy.
South Pointe are both included in the catchment area for the very active South Winnipeg Community Centre, which operates two thriving locations nearby— Richmond Kings Community Centre and St. Norbert Community Centre —both offering all kinds of sports and activities for the whole family.
