Neighborhood Profile: Brintnell

“Brintnell is a fabulous community for families on the go! With easy access to the Henday and Manning getting around the city as well as to Fort Saskatchewan or CFB Edmonton is a breeze. Residents in the area love the large playground, recreation fields and newer spray park! There’s also a new library and many additional shops, grocery stores and local eateries close by- make sure you try Frickin’ Chicken for a yummy meal! This established community attracts families and couples alike with a multitude of housing options to suit any need.” Kim Ouellette, REALTOR®, Schmidt Realty Group Inc.

Prior to undergoing residential development in the early 2000s, Brintnell was undeveloped and the majority of the area was in agricultural use. But the parameters for the development of Brintnell were already set in place in 1981 when the Pilot Sound Area Structure Plan was approved. The northern portions of the neighbourhood were still under development in 2009.

Brintnell today is surrounded by residential neighbourhoods to the south and west, and Gorman Industrial is located to the east across Manning Drive. The vast majority of housing units (94 percent) are single-family residences in Brintnell; 97 percent are owner-occupied.

Brintnell’s circulation design features arterial roadways along the exterior of the neighbourhood, with a loop and cul-de-sac design on the interior. A right-of-way that runs through the neighbourhood provides a green corridor and pedestrian pathway for residents. Residents also have easy access to Manning Drive via 160th Avenue.

All neighbourhoods in the Pilot Sound area are named for pilots, and Brintnell was chosen to honour Wilfred Leigh Brintnell (1895–1971), who was well-known for his pioneering trips across uncharted areas.

There were 65 homes sold between August 1, 2019 and Jul 31, 2020 in Brintnell, ranging from a low of $226,000 for a 1,200 sq ft 2 storey townhouse to a high of $557,000 for a 2,600 sq ft 2 storey single family home on a large lot. The median sold price for homes in Brintnell during the same time period was $392,000 which represents a 1,700 sq ft 2 storey single family home.
