14 Atlas Crescent – Property Summary

Key Characteristics & Appeal

This is a 2018-built home with 1,607 square feet of living space on a 5,405-square-foot lot. The property sits in the West Kildonan Industrial neighbourhood, and its profile is best described as a newer home in an area where most homes are slightly older.

Where it stands out: the lot is noticeably larger than the neighbourhood average (top 10% in West Kildonan Industrial), and the living area is above the citywide average for comparable homes (top 25%). The assessed value, at $482,000, is also above the city average but roughly in line with what you’d expect for the street. The year built is what really separates this property from its surroundings—it ranks in the top 4% citywide for newer construction, though it’s actually among the older homes on its own street, where the average build year is 2019.

The appeal here is practical. You get a relatively new home without the premium of a brand-new build, on a lot that gives more yard space than most neighbours in the area. It’s not an oversized property, but it’s comfortably above average in both indoor and outdoor space for the city as a whole.

This would suit buyers who want a newer home in an established neighbourhood, value outdoor space, and are comfortable with a property that’s solidly middle-of-the-pack on its street rather than the newest or most expensive. It’s a good fit for someone who wants new-ish without paying for “brand new,” or who wants more land than a typical infill.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is the home ranked “below average” on its street for year built, yet “elite” citywide?
The street itself is very new—the average build year on Atlas Crescent is 2019. This home, built in 2018, is slightly older than the immediate neighbours. Compared to the rest of Winnipeg, though, where the average comparable home was built in 1966, a 2018 build is very recent. The rankings reflect different reference groups.

2. Is the assessed value of $482,000 a reliable indicator of market price?
Assessed value is a lagging indicator, set by the city for tax purposes, not current market conditions. It’s useful for comparison against similar homes in the area, but actual sale prices can vary. The home’s assessment is slightly below the street average ($509.6k) and above the neighbourhood average ($442.9k), suggesting it’s priced in a reasonable range for the area.

3. How does the lot size affect usability?
At 5,405 square feet, the lot is larger than 90% of properties in the neighbourhood, but slightly below the citywide average for comparable homes. In this context, “large” means more yard space than most nearby homes—enough for a decent garden, play area, or expansion, but not so large that it turns into a maintenance burden.

4. Why is the living area ranked higher citywide than on the street?
On Atlas Crescent, the average living area is 1,800 square feet, so this home (1,607 sqft) is on the smaller side for the street. Across the city, the average comparable home is 1,342 square feet, so by Winnipeg standards, this home is above average. The rankings simply reflect different baselines.

5. What does “West Kildonan Industrial” mean for the neighbourhood feel?
Despite the name, this is a residential pocket within an area that includes some industrial zoning. It’s not a heavy-industrial district, but buyers should be aware that the broader West Kildonan area has a mix of residential, commercial, and light industrial uses. It’s worth visiting the street at different times to get a sense of noise, traffic, and nearby activity.
