24 Brodick Court – Property Summary
Key Characteristics & Buyer Profile
This is a 2,759-square-foot home on a 10,553-square-foot lot in Winnipeg’s Whyte Ridge neighbourhood, built in 1987. Its assessed value is $679,000.
The property’s main strength is its size—both the house and the land. City-wide, it ranks in the top 2% for living area and the top 5% for lot size. Within Whyte Ridge, those numbers jump to the top 1% and top 4%, respectively. The assessed value also sits in the top 4% city-wide and top 4% within the neighbourhood, which reflects both the larger footprint and the area’s desirability.
The year built (1987) is slightly older than the neighbourhood average (1994), but still newer than most homes city-wide, which average 1966. On its own street, it’s in line with the other eight homes.
This property would suit buyers who want more space—inside and out—than typical newer subdivisions offer. The lot in particular is a standout: it’s nearly double the neighbourhood average. That makes it a good fit for someone who values yard space, privacy, or room for additions, gardens, or a shop. It’s less suited for someone seeking a turnkey, cookie-cutter build or a very recently constructed home. The neighbourhood rank for year built (top 83%) means a buyer should be comfortable with a home that’s not the newest on the block, but the trade-off is a floor plan and lot that many newer homes simply can’t match.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the home compare to others on Brodick Court?
On its street of eight homes, it’s roughly average in living area (ranked 3rd), lot size (4th), and year built (3rd). Its assessed value is also 3rd. So it’s not the standout on the street itself—its value becomes clearer when compared to the broader neighbourhood and city.
2. Is the assessed value a reliable indicator of market price?
Assessed value is a benchmark, not a guarantee. This home’s assessment ($679K) is well above both the neighbourhood and city averages, which suggests it’s in a higher-value tier. But final sale price depends on condition, upgrades, and buyer demand. Comparable sales (not shown here) would give a more accurate picture.
3. Why is the year built ranked lower in the neighbourhood than city-wide?
Whyte Ridge has a high proportion of homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s. So a 1987 build is older than most in the immediate area, ranking in the bottom 17% (top 83%). Across Winnipeg, many homes are from the 1960s or earlier, so an ‘87 home ranks in the top 25% city-wide. It’s a matter of context.
4. How usable is the 10,553 sqft lot?
It’s substantially larger than the neighbourhood average of 6,175 sqft, which suggests good potential for outdoor living, gardening, or future expansion. That said, usability depends on shape, zoning, and any easements or restrictions. A site visit or survey would confirm how much of the lot is buildable or functional.
5. Who would this home not suit?
It’s probably not ideal for buyers who prioritize a newer build (post-2000) or low-maintenance, compact yard. Also, if a buyer is comparing homes strictly within Whyte Ridge, they’ll find newer options, but likely with less indoor and outdoor space. This home trades newer construction for size and a larger property footprint.
