Property Overview: 217 Ashford Drive, River Park South, Winnipeg

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This 1,620 sqft home, built in 1983, presents a compelling opportunity in Winnipeg's River Park South neighborhood. Its primary appeal lies in its strong standing within its immediate locale. The home ranks in the top tier on its own street for living space, assessed value, and year built—in fact, it's the newest among its 79 direct neighbors. This suggests a well-maintained, above-average property on a desirable street.

The numbers tell a story of a home that outperforms its direct surroundings. With a living area and lot size (5,503 sqft) notably larger than the street average, it offers more space than most nearby homes. The assessed value of $435k is also above the street's average, indicating its perceived quality. While it aligns more closely with city-wide averages for the neighborhood and broader Winnipeg, its strength is its local prominence.

This property would suit buyers looking for a established, spacious family home in a mature neighborhood, who value being on a street with consistent, well-regarded properties. It's ideal for someone who appreciates a home that stands out in its immediate context for size and relative newness, without venturing into premium city-wide price brackets. A thoughtful perspective is that this home may offer a "big fish in a small pond" advantage—providing standout features for the area, which can be a stabilizing factor for value.


Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does this home truly compare to others in the area?
The data shows it's a leader on its specific street (Ashford Drive) in terms of size, value, and age. Compared to the wider River Park South neighborhood and Winnipeg overall, it is more of an average or slightly above-average property, indicating a very solid, established home in a stable area.

2. What does the sale history indicate about the property's value?
The home has sold three times since 2017, with the most recent sale in 2024 fetching a price in the $450k-$500k range. This latest sale price placed it in a higher percentile locally, suggesting a strong and appreciating market interest in this specific property.

3. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of the likely selling price?
The $435k assessed value is above the street average and close to recent sale prices for the home itself. It's a useful benchmark for municipal taxation, but market conditions and the home's condition will ultimately determine the sale price. The recent sale history is a more direct indicator of market value.

4. The home was built in 1983. What should I consider regarding its age?
While 1983 is newer than many Winnipeg homes, it still means key systems (roof, windows, furnace, plumbing) could be near or past their typical lifespan. Its "elite" ranking for year built on its street is positive, but a thorough inspection is essential to understand the condition and any upcoming maintenance.

5. How can I find out the exact past sale prices?
The site provides estimated price ranges. Due to industry regulations, exact sold prices are not displayed publicly here. You can request the exact figures via email from the site provider, who will manually look up and send the verified transaction history.
