Homes Near 124 Street

When Edmontonians say "124 Street," they are not naming a road — they are naming a way of living. Glenora's high street runs from the river valley's edge at Government House north through galleries, bistros, independent shops and the seasonal 124 Grand Market, and the neighbourhoods wrapped around it — Glenora itself, Grovenor, Westmount and Oliver (Wîhkwêntôwin) at its south end — hold Edmonton's grandest old streets: 1910s and 1920s character houses under mature elms, ravine lots on MacKinnon Ravine, and crescents like St. George's that buyers wait years to get into.

This search belongs to buyers who choose lifestyle first: families who want heritage houses and top west-side schools, professionals who want downtown 10 minutes east, and downsizers who trade the big house for a boutique condo and keep the whole street as their amenity. The valley is the south border, the market is the weekly ritual, and the housing stock is the city's heritage catalogue.

The sold figures

Window for every figure: November 9, 2025 – November 8, 2026. Source: Paragon MLS® sold data, counted by neighbourhood — Glenora, Oliver (Wîhkwêntôwin), Grovenor and Westmount.

Single-family homes set the street's reputation: 159 sold at a median sold price of $674,900 and a median of just 24 days on market — a premium median moving at a fast clip, because the best-priced listings on the best streets do not linger.

Condos are the quiet second market: 418 sold at a median of $177,250 and a median of 45 days on market, almost all in Oliver at the street's south end. A prestige house market up the hill and an entry-priced condo market at its foot, sharing the same cafés and the same valley — that is why each figure on this page is labelled with its own property type.

Community highlights

• The 124 Street gallery walk: one of western Canada's densest gallery districts, with bistros and independent shops between the frames.
• The 124 Grand Market — the seasonal outdoor market families stroll weekly, a warm-weather ritual for the whole west inner city.
• MacKinnon Ravine Park drops straight off the neighbourhood's west streets into the river valley trail system.
• Government House grounds and parkland anchor the street's south end, above the valley.
• Alexander Circle and Glenora's playground network thread green space through the residential streets.
• Stony Plain Road's cafés and the Glenora and Westmount community leagues keep daily life local.

124 Street real estate

The houses are Edmonton's heritage stock at its best: grand 1910s and 1920s character homes in Glenora, many restored to the woodwork; wartime and post-war houses in Westmount and Grovenor, increasingly joined by architect-designed infill; and ravine-edge lots on MacKinnon Ravine that trade at a premium of their own. The condo side lives in Oliver — towers, mid-rise and walk-ups — plus a handful of boutique buildings closer to the street.

Who buys? Established families buy Glenora and Westmount for the schools and streets, often as a decades-long hold. Professionals and downsizers buy Oliver condos and character conversions, keeping the dining and gallery life while shedding the yard. Infill builders stay active because finished product here sells — 24 median days says so. Resale value rests on heritage streetscapes and a fixed supply of valley-adjacent lots; neither can be replicated elsewhere in the city.

About living near 124 Street

Day to day, this is village life inside the city: morning coffee, the market, the gallery opening and the ravine walk all happen within a few blocks, and the Glenora, Grovenor and Westmount community leagues run busy halls, rinks and programs. Downtown is a 10-minute drive; the University of Alberta is about 10 minutes south across Groat Bridge. The honest costs mirror the charms — heritage houses carry heritage maintenance — and residents tend to think that is fair rent for the address.

Frequently asked questions

What have homes near 124 Street sold for recently?

Condos sold 418 times at a median of $177,250 and a median of 45 days on market (Paragon MLS® sold data).

Why is there such a gap between the house and condo medians?
They are two markets sharing a street. The houses are Glenora, Grovenor and Westmount heritage properties; the condos are concentrated in Oliver at the street's south end, where supply is deep and entry prices are low. Each figure on this page is labelled with its own property type and count.

Which part of the 124 Street area suits families best?
Glenora and Westmount are the family heartland — big character houses, strong schools and quiet streets — while Grovenor adds infill choice and ravine access. Oliver suits buyers who want the street's life in a lower-maintenance condo.

Do heritage homes here hold their value?
The fundamentals say yes: mature streetscapes, a fixed supply of valley-adjacent lots and a 24-day median selling pace for single-family homes. Condition and restoration quality decide the individual result, which is why inspection and history matter on every purchase.

How far is 124 Street from downtown and the University?
About 10 minutes to downtown by car, and about 10 minutes to the University of Alberta via Groat Road — one of the reasons the street draws both downtown professionals and university staff.
