About The Area

Area Description

Abasand

Abasand is located on the west side of Highway 63, central to Fort McMurray. A 5-minute drive takes you to the local hospital and downtown. Also, Abasand has no access to other neighbourhoods, which limits traffic and provides a peaceful surrounding.  This community is rebuilding from the 2016 wildfire, making it a good opportunity for buying a newly built house.

Abasand contains mostly single family homes, with many parking options. For example, choose from large driveways, attached front garages, or rear detached garages with alley access. Some homes are on larger lots with RV, ATV, or boat storage available. In addition, there are many options for single family homes with in-suites. In-suites can be used for larger families or people looking for extra income. Buyers can find newly built townhomes and condos with underground parking as well. There is a home for almost every budget in this affordable community.

Abasand has many recreational opportunities, including direct access to local ATV trails with a staging area. This community sits on a hill above the river valley, which gives excellent views on all ends of the valleys and surrounding forests. Being higher above the lights and busy traffic of the downtown area, Abasand is an optimal spot to gaze upon the amazing views of the northern lights.
