River's Edge, Edmonton: New Homes on the River Valley Edge
River's Edge is a new neighbourhood in Edmonton's Riverview area, between The Uplands, Stillwater and the North Saskatchewan River valley, just southwest of Anthony Henday Drive. It suits buyers who want a newly built detached home a few minutes across the Henday from Windermere, and right now it has more homes for sale than almost any other southwest community.
The City places River's Edge in its West sector, while buyers and builders often call it southwest Edmonton. We include it with our southwest guides because most of the people who ask us about it already live or work around Windermere, Terwillegar or Riverbend.

Where River's Edge sits
River's Edge was planned as Riverview Neighbourhood 3. City Council adopted its neighbourhood structure plan on September 22, 2015, two years after the Riverview Area Structure Plan (July 3, 2013). The Uplands is to the north, Stillwater to the west, the future Grandisle neighbourhood to the southwest, and the river valley wraps the east and south sides. A builder site places the entrance off 199 Street and Maskêkosihk Trail.
- Riverview area: The Uplands, Stillwater, River's Edge, Grandisle and White Birch are the five planned neighbourhoods.
- Road links: Anthony Henday Drive, Whitemud Drive and Maskêkosihk Trail. Try the drive to Windermere's shops at the hour you would really make it.
- Planned amenities: builder material lists a storm pond, trails along the valley edge, a district park and a school and park site. Treat a planned school as planned until the school board announces funding.
River's Edge market numbers
| Type | Sales | Active now | Median sold price | Median days on market | Sold to list | Months of supply |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached and other freehold | 82 | 73 | $504,625 | 84 | 99.5% | 10.7 |
Source: REALTORS® Association of Edmonton MLS® System (Paragon), sales from November 1, 2025 to October 31, 2026; active listings as of November 8, 2026. "Detached" includes half duplexes and other freehold homes; "condo" is apartment style.
Every sale in the last 12 months was a freehold home, and the median home took 84 days to sell, far longer than the southwest norm. With 73 homes for sale against 82 sales a year, there were about 10.7 months of supply on November 8, 2026. Much of that is new construction and quick possession stock from builders, which is why sold prices came in at 99.5% of the final list price: builders adjust the list price or add incentives before a sale is recorded, rather than accepting low offers.
What that means if you are buying
- Compare builders, not only floor plans. Ask each builder for the specification sheet, the warranty provider and what is included in the base price, then compare the same lot type.
- Ask about incentives in writing. In a high supply community, upgrades or closing credits are often easier to get than a lower price.
- Look at resales too. A few early homes come back on the market; they may include landscaping, fencing and window coverings a new build does not.
- GST on new homes. New homes carry GST. Check the current federal and provincial rebate rules for your price before you sign.
If you are selling nearby
Owners in The Uplands, Stillwater or the Windermere area compete with this new supply, so price and presentation matter. A resale needs a clear reason to choose it over a brand new home a few streets away: a finished basement, a mature yard or an earlier possession date.
