Southwest Edmonton Homes From $350K to $500K: Your First Detached House
Between $350,000 and $500,000 is where southwest Edmonton buyers get their first detached house. Twelve southwest communities had a detached median inside this band in the year to October 31, 2026, and they split into two very different choices: a newer, narrower house south of the Henday, or an older house on a much bigger lot north of it.
That choice is the conversation the team has most often with young families, so this page sets the two side by side with MLS® medians and the City's typical lot sizes.
Note: the listings below show every home for sale in southwest Edmonton at any price. Use the price filter to see homes from $350K to $500K.

Newer detached homes south of the Henday
| Community | Detached median | Sold | For sale Nov 8 | Typical lot (sq ft) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paisley | $471,000 | 48 | 14 | 2,944 |
| Stillwater | $497,500 | 96 | 65 | 3,136 |
| Chappelle | $495,600 | 301 | 118 | 3,302 |
| Glenridding Heights | $490,000 | 96 | 16 | n/a |
| MacEwan | $494,900 | 40 | 11 | 4,143 |
| Callaghan | $457,000 | 24 | 11 | 4,253 |
| South Terwillegar | $478,000 | 92 | 12 | n/a |
Chappelle stands out for volume: 301 detached sales and 118 for sale on November 8, more than any other southwest community. Expect front-garage and laned two-storeys on lots near 3,000 square feet in Paisley, Stillwater and Chappelle.
Older houses with room to spread out
| Community | Detached median | Sold | Typical build year | Typical lot (sq ft) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Empire Park | $392,500 | 6 | 1975 | 2,570 |
| Keheewin | $441,500 | 16 | 1983 | 5,865 |
| Royal Gardens | $449,950 | 24 | 1966 | 6,120 |
| Duggan | $460,000 | 37 | 1971 | 6,465 |
| Ermineskin | $475,500 | 12 | 1978 | 3,445 |
In Duggan, Royal Gardens and Keheewin the typical lot runs close to or above 6,000 square feet, about double a Paisley lot, but the houses date from the 1960s to the 1980s. Budget for windows, shingles, the furnace and possibly the electrical panel, and have an inspector look closely at the sewer line.
Bigger attached homes at the same price
Some buyers in this band skip a detached house for a larger condo or townhouse in a pricier area:
| Community | Median | Type | Sold |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magrath Heights | $445,950 | Condo | 30 |
| Leger | $405,000 | Condo | 8 |
| Twin Brooks | $414,750 | Townhouse | 20 |
| Bulyea Heights | $415,000 | Townhouse | 15 |
| Magrath Heights | $393,000 | Townhouse | 13 |
| Carter Crest | $380,000 | Townhouse | 9 |
| The Uplands | $479,998 | Townhouse | 7 |
Magrath Heights condos ($445,950 median) are mostly larger units near the river valley, and the Twin Brooks and Bulyea Heights townhouses sit in mature areas with ravine trails.
How a southwest buyer narrows it down
- Decide whether lot size or house age matters more to you; this band rarely gives you both.
- Map your daily route. South-of-Henday areas lean on Terwillegar Drive, 127 Street, 141 Street and the Henday ramps; the older areas use 23 Avenue, 111 Street and Whitemud Drive.
- Check school designations for the exact address, because a new community can be designated to schools outside it until its own schools open.
- Ask the team for the last three detached sales on the street, not only the community median.

$350K to $500K questions from southwest buyers
Which southwest communities have detached homes under $500,000?

Is a newer house or a bigger lot the better value?
It depends on your plans. Newer areas mean fewer repairs on lots near 3,000 square feet; older areas like Duggan offer about 6,465 square feet with renovation costs to plan for.

Chappelle, with 118 detached homes for sale on November 8, 2026 and a $495,600 median on 301 sales.
