Highlands is a historic, river-valley-adjacent neighbourhood in northeast Edmonton known for its mature trees, walkable streets, and a strong stock of character homes (early- to mid-20th-century houses) alongside pockets of infill. It generally attracts established families, professionals, and long-time residents who value architectural charm and proximity to the North Saskatchewan River trail system. The area’s small commercial nodes and nearby amenities in adjacent communities make day-to-day errands practical while maintaining a primarily residential feel.
Key draws include quick access to river valley parks and multi-use trails, relatively easy connections to Downtown Edmonton, and nearby retail/services along 118 Avenue and in neighbouring areas. School options include Highlands School (EPSB) and nearby public/catholic alternatives in surrounding communities; the neighbourhood’s family orientation supports stable long-term rental demand for single-family homes and larger suites. Transit is primarily bus-based with straightforward routes to central Edmonton; driving access via major east-west corridors is convenient. Real estate trends typically show resilient values for well-kept character properties, steady infill activity, and rent levels supported by close-in location—though yields can be moderated by higher purchase prices for renovated or heritage-style homes compared with more investor-heavy outer-ring areas.
Highlands currently has 23 active for-sale listings with a median asking price of $829,900, averaging $464 per square foot, and properties have been listed for an average of 53 days so far. With 11 new listings in the past 30 days, supply is building, giving buyers and investors a bit more choice and negotiation room while still pointing to a higher-end pricing profile in this pocket of Edmonton.
