Katz's riverfront mansion at 4 Valleyview Point in the Parkview neighbourhood, is one of the largest houses in Edmonton at 25,000 square feet (2,300 m2), and estimated to be worth C$20 million. The property overlooks the North Saskatchewan river valley, Hawrelak Park, and the downtown city skyline and is easily visible and instantly recognizable from the river valley's many trails. The great room is clad floor-to-ceiling in 90-kilogram (200 lb) blocks of ancient Italian limestone and with 9-metre (30 ft)-high windows framing a view of downtown. The property also features two swimming pools. For his kids, Katz bought the multi-million dollar house next to his, demolished it, and built a practice hockey rink.
Katz also owns homes in the US and British Columbia, one of them reportedly a near carbon copy of his Edmonton home.
