14 Knightswood Court – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Fit
This is a well-sized 2,161 sqft home built in 2000, located in the Whyte Ridge neighborhood of Winnipeg. Its standout feature is living space: it ranks in the top 7% city-wide for square footage among comparable homes, well above the local average of 1,666 sqft. The assessed value of $587k also sits comfortably above neighborhood and city medians, ranking in the top 9% city-wide. The land area (5,766 sqft) is slightly below the street and neighborhood averages, but still within a typical range for the area—ranking right around the middle locally.
The appeal here is straightforward: you get a relatively newer home (top 18% city-wide for year built) with generous interior square footage, without paying a premium for an oversized lot. For buyers who prioritize indoor space—whether for a growing family, home office needs, or simply not wanting to feel cramped—this property delivers more room than most homes in the same price bracket. It would suit buyers looking for a move-in ready, late-1990s/early-2000s build in an established suburban area, who are less concerned with having a large yard and more focused on interior livability and solid value retention.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the living area compare to other homes in Whyte Ridge?
It’s significantly above average. While the neighborhood median for comparable homes is 1,666 sqft, this property offers 2,161 sqft—roughly 30% more space. It ranks in the top 10% within Whyte Ridge, meaning only about one in ten nearby homes has a larger footprint.
2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of market price?
Assessed value is a useful benchmark but not a direct market price. This home’s assessment of $587k is above the neighborhood average of $529.6k, which suggests it’s positioned in a higher-value tier for the area. However, actual sale price will depend on condition, upgrades, and current market conditions. The ranking data (top 9% city-wide) indicates strong relative value, but a local agent’s comparative market analysis would give a clearer picture.
3. The lot is slightly smaller than the street average. Is that a concern?
Not necessarily. The lot size is 5,766 sqft versus the street average of 6,178 sqft—a difference of about 400 sqft. It still ranks in the top 50% on the street, so it’s not undersized. For buyers who prefer less yard maintenance or plan to use the space efficiently, this can actually be a practical advantage. It’s only worth flagging if you specifically need a large, private yard for gardening, playsets, or future additions.
4. How does the year 2000 build compare to older homes in the area?
It’s newer than most. The neighborhood average year built for comparable homes is 1994, and city-wide it’s 1966. A 2000 build means the home likely has modern construction standards, updated electrical and plumbing systems, and better insulation than older stock. It’s also old enough that major deferred maintenance (like roof or furnace replacement) may already have been addressed, but you’ll want to confirm that during your viewing.
5. What does “neighbourhood analysis” give me that the summary doesn’t?
The neighbourhood analysis map lets you see this property in relation to nearby homes on a street-level view. You can compare year built, living area, assessed value, and lot size side by side with specific neighbors. This helps you understand whether this home is an outlier on its street (e.g., the largest living area but smallest lot) or more typical for the block. It’s particularly useful if you’re weighing multiple properties in the same area and want a visual sense of how they stack up.
