Highlights & common questions: 238 Garton Avenue, Winnipeg

Property Overview

This one-storey home at 238 Garton Avenue in Inkster Gardens presents a practical and straightforward ownership opportunity. Built in 1984, its key characteristics are its manageable 1,052 sqft living area and a notably generous 5,406 sqft lot for the neighbourhood, placing it in the top 28% locally for land size. The home features a renovated basement and a detached garage. Its assessed value is consistent with area averages, and recent sales data suggests stable, modest value growth in line with local trends.

The appeal lies in its uncomplicated, single-level layout and the potential offered by its larger-than-average lot. It suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into the market, practical-minded owners who value low-maintenance living without stairs, or investors looking for a stable rental property. A thoughtful perspective is that while the home itself is average in size and value for the city, the lot size offers a relative rarity in the immediate area—providing more outdoor space or future expansion potential than many neighbouring properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home compare to others on the street and in Inkster Gardens?
The home is very typical for Garton Avenue in terms of size, age, and value. Within the broader Inkster Gardens neighbourhood, however, it stands out for having a larger lot size than most comparable properties.

2. What is the significance of the sold price history shown?
The listed sold price range from July 2021 provides a benchmark for the home's market value a few years ago. It shows the property has been transacted in a modest price bracket, consistent with its assessed value and the area's profile.

3. What does "renovated basement" typically mean for a home of this age?
For a 1984 home, a renovated basement often indicates updated finishes and likely attention to foundational moisture protection or insulation. It's a valuable feature that adds functional living space, but specifics on the scope, permits, and quality of the renovation should be verified.

4. Is the detached garage a standard feature here?
While not uncommon, a detached garage is a practical asset, offering storage or workshop space separate from the house. It can be a preferable feature for those with hobbies or needing extra storage, compared to homes with only carports or driveway parking.

5. Who would benefit most from the larger lot size?
The lot is the property's standout feature. It would benefit buyers interested in gardening, outdoor recreation, or those who simply desire more privacy and space between neighbours. It also presents a long-term advantage for potential additions or landscaping projects that smaller lots cannot accommodate.
