Highlights & common questions: 708 Ashburn Street, Winnipeg

Property Overview: 708 Ashburn Street, Winnipeg

Section 1: Key Characteristics & Appeal

This home at 708 Ashburn Street in the Minto neighborhood is a classic, early-1900s residence that presents a practical and value-oriented opportunity. Built in 1912, it offers 1,040 sqft of living space on a 2,564 sqft lot. Its core appeal lies in its relative affordability and established location. The assessed value is notably below the city-wide average, positioning it as an accessible entry point into the Winnipeg market.

The home suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a straightforward, no-frills property where value is derived more from land and location than from modern finishes or size. A thoughtful perspective for this type of home is its potential as a "blank canvas." While it requires an appreciation for an older building's character and maintenance, it allows new owners to add value through renovations tailored to their taste, rather than paying a premium for someone else's updates. Its lot size is compact but typical for the street, offering manageable outdoor space with lower maintenance demands.

Section 2: Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home compare to others in the area?
The data shows this property is very typical for Ashburn Street itself, ranking around the middle for size, value, and lot. It’s slightly older than most homes in the broader Minto area and significantly more affordable than the Winnipeg city-wide average.

2. What should I consider about a home built in 1912?
While offering charm and established neighborhood roots, a home of this age will likely have older building materials and systems. A thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition of the foundation, wiring, plumbing, and roof, and to budget for potential updates or repairs.

3. The sold price history shows a range for 2018. How can I get the exact figure?
The exact sold price is not publicly displayed. You can request it directly via the "Get exact sold price history" form on the listing page. The service is manual, but they aim to provide the accurate figure by email without using your address for marketing.

4. Is the lot size a limitation?
At 2,564 sqft, the lot is smaller than the city average but is fairly standard for the Minto neighborhood. It provides adequate outdoor space for a patio, garden, or small lawn without the burden of extensive upkeep, which can be a positive for those seeking a low-maintenance yard.

5. What is the neighborhood context like?
