These two neighbourhoods come up in the same conversation more than almost any other pairing in east Regina, and it makes sense. They're both new, they're both in the southeast, they share the same school catchments, and they're within a few minutes of each other. On paper, they look like the same decision. In practice, they feel pretty different.

The Towns is a New Urbanism community built around walkable design, townhomes, and a Scandinavian-inspired commercial hub called Welcome Woodland. Eastbrook is a 180-acre master-planned development with enforced architectural diversity, a Ducks Unlimited partnership, and 24 acres of parks. Same corner of the city. Different priorities. And understanding where those priorities diverge is what helps you figure out which one actually fits your family.

I walk buyers through this comparison regularly, so here's what I tell them.

Price and What You Get

This is where the gap is biggest, so let's get into the numbers.

The Towns is the more affordable option. Entry-level street towns and row housing start in the $380K to $420K range, with most single-family homes sitting between $420K and $520K. Premium builds push up to $630K, but the bulk of what sells here is in that mid-range. The housing mix leans heavily toward townhomes, duplexes, and lane homes with rear-access garages. Lot sizes are compact by design — that's the New Urbanism approach. You're trading yard space for a walkable streetscape.

Eastbrook starts higher. Entry-level homes begin around $479K and the mid-range runs $549K to $599K, with premium lots backing onto green space reaching $670K. Nearly everything here is single-family detached. The Architectural Control Committee requires a mix of styles — Tudor, Prairie, Farmhouse, Modern, French Country — so you won't see a street of cookie-cutter builds. Exterior materials are regulated too, with mandatory masonry in certain applications.

The bottom line: if budget is your main constraint, The Towns gives you a way into this part of the city for $100K to $150K less than Eastbrook. If you want a detached home with more square footage and enforced design variety, Eastbrook charges a premium for it — but you can see where the money went.

Neighbourhood Character

The Towns feels intentional in a different way than Eastbrook. Terra Developments built it around the idea of Saskatchewan's historic railway towns — places where the commercial hub was the social centre. Welcome Woodland is that hub. It's a 2.1-acre cluster of locally owned shops built with reclaimed materials: The Everyday Kitchen for coffee and sourdough donuts, Dandy's for artisan ice cream, a bubble tea spot, a chocolate store. You can walk there from most homes in the neighbourhood. The streets are tighter, the houses are closer together, and there's a deliberate small-town energy that comes from how the community is physically laid out. About 85% of residents are owners, not renters, and turnover is low.

Eastbrook's character comes from different choices. The Ducks Unlimited partnership shaped the stormwater systems and native prairie habitat throughout the community — it's the first neighbourhood in Regina to do that at this scale. The front-porch-forward street design means garages don't dominate the view. Kiswehap Park functions as an urban square with an amphitheatre and public art, hosting farmers' markets and community events. It's a quieter, more spread-out feel than The Towns, with bigger lots and more space between neighbours.

If you want walkable density and a commercial hub you can reach on foot, The Towns delivers that. If you want more space, a nature-forward design, and a neighbourhood that feels a bit more open, Eastbrook is the better match.

Schools and Family Life

Both neighbourhoods share the same school infrastructure, which makes this category closer to a draw than most people expect.

For elementary, Ecole Wascana Plains (K-8, public with French Immersion) and Ecole St. Elizabeth (K-8, Catholic with French Immersion) serve both communities. Having two French Immersion options — one public, one Catholic — is a genuine advantage that families in other parts of Regina drive across the city to access.

High school means Campbell Collegiate for public students and Miller Comprehensive for Catholic families. It's a 10-to-15-minute drive from either neighbourhood, which is the standard trade-off with newer communities in the southeast.

Here's where it gets interesting: joint-use schools have been announced for this area — a 1,400-student elementary school, a 2,000-student high school, and 180 childcare spots. Once those open, families in both The Towns and Eastbrook won't need to commute to Campbell anymore. And those 180 childcare spots are going to matter a lot in neighbourhoods full of young families who've been on waitlists.

The school story is essentially the same for both. Pick based on what else matters to you — the schools aren't going to tip this one.

Parks and Outdoor Life

This is where Eastbrook pulls ahead, and it's not close.

Eastbrook has 24 acres of parkland within its 180-acre footprint — roughly 13% of the entire neighbourhood is green space. Crosbie Park (everyone calls it Pirate Park) has a wheelchair-accessible pirate-themed playground that draws families from across the city. There's a basketball court, a large open lawn with public art, and proper gathering space. Kiswehap Park adds an amphitheatre and community gathering areas. And then there's the 1.8 km of naturalized trails developed with Ducks Unlimited, winding through prairie grassland with seating along the route. It's a different kind of trail than the paved paths in most subdivisions — the plantings are intentional, the habitat is real, and you'll see wildlife you wouldn't expect in a city neighbourhood.

The Towns has internal lit pathways and Horizon Station Park with play structures, which connect to the broader Greens on Gardiner trail system. It's functional and well-maintained. But the park footprint is smaller, and the naturalized trails aren't on the same level as what Eastbrook offers.

Both neighbourhoods are close to McKell Wascana Conservation Park (171 acres of native prairie and wetland along Wascana Creek, with four kilometres of groomed trails), and Sandra Schmirler Leisure Centre is a short drive from either. But if parks and trails are a priority in your daily life — not just a nice-to-have — Eastbrook was designed around that from day one.

Shopping and Daily Errands

Both neighbourhoods benefit from Acre 21, the commercial hub anchored by Save-On-Foods, Shoppers Drug Mart, and a Sherwood Co-Op gas bar. It handles groceries, prescriptions, and banking. From either The Towns or Eastbrook, you're within a five-to-ten-minute drive or a short pathway walk to get there.

The difference is what else you've got. The Towns has Welcome Woodland right inside the neighbourhood — coffee, ice cream, bubble tea, chocolates, a hair salon. It's not a full-service commercial district, but it's walkable and it's locally owned. Eastbrook doesn't have its own commercial node. The Everyday Kitchen on East Buckingham Drive is nearby, but for most daily errands beyond Acre 21, you're in the car.

For bigger runs — Costco, Canadian Tire, Walmart — both neighbourhoods are within five to ten minutes along Arcola Avenue or Victoria Avenue. Neither one has an advantage there.

The Bottom Line

Choose The Towns if you want a more affordable entry into southeast Regina, you like townhome or lane-home living, and walkability to a local commercial hub matters to you. The New Urbanism design isn't for everyone — lots are smaller, you'll share walls in some builds, and the density is higher than a conventional subdivision. But if that trade-off works for your lifestyle, you're getting a well-designed community at a lower price point.

Choose Eastbrook if you want a detached single-family home, you value parks and naturalized trails in your daily routine, and you're willing to pay the premium for enforced architectural diversity and a nature-forward community plan. The entry price is higher, and you're still living through active construction in some phases. But the long-term vision here is different, and the green space commitment is real.

Either way, you're in one of the strongest parts of east Regina for families, with the same schools, the same commercial access, and the same commute times. The question is really about housing type, outdoor space, and budget.

Parks and Green Spaces

This is where Eastbrook really separates itself from other new builds in the city. The neighbourhood was planned with 24 acres of parks and green space, which is a lot for a community this size. There are two main parks, plus a trail network that ties everything together.

Crosbie Park is the one everyone talks about. It's home to the pirate-themed playground — locals just call it Pirate Park — and it draws families from across the city, not just from Eastbrook. The play structure is wheelchair accessible with features designed for different ages and abilities, so it's genuinely inclusive. There's also a basketball court and a large open lawn area with public art by Jason Robins. It's a proper destination park, not just a token green space wedged between houses.

Kiswehap Park is the neighbourhood's urban square, and it's unlike anything else in east Regina. There's an outdoor amphitheatre, gathering spaces, and a central public art installation. In the summer, it hosts community events, outdoor fitness classes, and seasonal markets. During the rest of the year, it's a nice spot to walk through — it feels intentional rather than leftover.

Connecting everything is 1.8 km of naturalized walking trails developed in partnership with Ducks Unlimited. The pathways wind through prairie grassland areas with seating along the way, and they link directly to Crosbie Park. If you're someone who values being able to step outside and walk without driving somewhere first, Eastbrook delivers on that in a way that most new neighbourhoods don't.

Shopping and Errands

One of Eastbrook's biggest practical advantages is Acre 21, the commercial hub located right at the entrance to the neighbourhood. It's a three-minute drive or about a fifteen-minute walk from most homes. You've got Save-On-Foods for groceries, Shoppers Drug Mart for prescriptions, plus banking, a gas station, and several restaurants. For a new community, that level of convenience is unusual — most subdivisions make you drive ten to fifteen minutes for milk.

Beyond Acre 21, Costco is about a six-minute drive on Anaquod Road, and Aurora Shopping Centre is roughly the same distance. Aurora has Landmark Cinemas, PetSmart, Staples, and more retail options if you need a bigger shopping run. Victoria Square Shopping Centre — with Winners, Safeway, and additional stores — is a bit further north along Victoria Avenue East.

For day-to-day life, Acre 21 covers most of what you need. For everything else, you're looking at a five to ten minute drive, which is pretty standard for east Regina.

Restaurants and Coffee

Eastbrook's food scene is still building out, but there are some real standouts already. The Everyday Kitchen is the local favourite — it's right in the neighbourhood on East Buckingham Drive, about a two-minute drive or ten-minute walk from most homes. They're known for their sourdough donuts and specialty drinks, and they do eat-in, pickup, and citywide delivery. It's the kind of place where you start recognizing faces, which is exactly what a new neighbourhood needs.

At Acre 21 and the surrounding commercial areas, you've got Boston Pizza for sit-down family meals, Tipsy Samurai for sushi and ramen, and the usual fast options like Tim Hortons, McDonald's, and DQ. Leopold's Tavern is about an eight-minute drive — it's a Regina institution for pub food. Dandy's Ice Cream and Handmade Saskatchewan are worth the trip for something different. The dining isn't as concentrated as what you'd find closer to downtown, but it's more than enough for weeknight meals and weekend outings.

Recreation and Fitness

Sandra Schmirler Leisure Centre is the big draw for recreation, and it's close — a short drive south from Eastbrook. Inside, you've got a pool with slides and diving boards, a warm tot pool, a whirlpool, dry sauna, and a full gym with cardio and weights. The centre also houses a branch of the Regina Public Library, which is handy for families. If you compare this to what's available near some of the neighbourhoods further south, like Wood Meadows, the proximity to Sandra Schmirler is a genuine lifestyle advantage.

Within Eastbrook itself, the trail network and parks give you plenty of options for walking, jogging, and cycling without leaving the neighbourhood. Crosbie Park's basketball court gets regular use, and Kiswehap Park hosts outdoor fitness programming in the warmer months.

Commute and Getting Around

Eastbrook sits in the southeast corner of the city with good access to the Regina Bypass and the Arcola Avenue corridor. If you're working in the east-end industrial or commercial areas, your commute is likely five to ten minutes. Downtown is about a fifteen to twenty-minute drive depending on traffic and which route you take. The airport is roughly twenty minutes away.

This is a car-dependent neighbourhood — there's no getting around that. Transit service exists but it's limited on this side of the city, and cycling infrastructure is still catching up to the development. The internal trail network is great for recreation, but for commuting purposes, you'll be driving.

The Honest Downsides of Living Here

Eastbrook is still under construction. That's the first thing you'll notice. Depending on where you buy, you could be living next to active building sites for the next several years. Construction traffic, dust, and early-morning noise are part of the deal when you buy into a developing community. Some blocks are fully built out and landscaped, while others are still bare lots. If that bothers you, pay close attention to which phase you're buying in.

Car dependency is real. Despite the walkable parks and Acre 21 being close, most errands beyond groceries require a drive. There's no walkable main street, no neighbourhood pub you can stroll to on a Friday night. If walkability is high on your list, you'll want to look at something closer to the established east-end corridors or consider a neighbourhood like Spruce Meadows where you're right on Prince of Wales Drive.

The architectural controls are strict. Eastbrook has specific design guidelines — farmhouse, craftsman, and prairie styles — which keeps the streets looking cohesive, but it also means you can't just build whatever you want. Some buyers love the uniformity; others find it limiting.

Resale history is thin. Because the neighbourhood is so new, there isn't a deep track record of what homes sell for on the resale market. Most transactions are new builds, so if you're trying to compare values or predict appreciation, you're working with less data than you'd have in an established area.

Finally, schools are nearby but not technically inside Eastbrook. Ecole Wascana Plains School and Ecole St. Elizabeth are just a few minutes away in the Greens on Gardiner area, both offering French Immersion. They're modern and well-regarded, but depending on where you live in Eastbrook, busing may be involved for younger kids.

Who Lives in Eastbrook?

Because everything is new construction, you're mostly seeing young families and professionals who want to be part of something from the beginning. These are people who didn't just want a house — they wanted a neighbourhood that was built with intention. The Ducks Unlimited partnership, the enforced architectural diversity, the parks-first approach — that stuff matters to the buyers who end up here.

It's still a young community, and that's worth being honest about. There's no twenty-year tradition of block parties or a long-standing neighbourhood association. But there's real energy from people who chose Eastbrook specifically because of how it was planned. It's a neighbourhood that's actively becoming something, and the people who live here are shaping what that looks like.

What You'll Pay

Here's where the numbers stand right now:

Entry level ($479K-$510K): This gets you into a new-construction home in Eastbrook. You're not compromising on build quality at this price — these are modern homes with current energy-efficiency standards.

Mid-range ($549K-$599K): The sweet spot for families who want more space, upgraded finishes, and the architectural styles that make this neighbourhood stand out.

Premium ($619K-$670K): Larger lots, premium locations backing onto green space, and the full range of high-end finishes.

The citywide median in Regina sits around $320,000, so yes, Eastbrook is above average. But you're buying new construction with modern building standards, enforced design controls, and a neighbourhood plan that most developments in the city don't have.

Here's something worth knowing: builders are still releasing phases. That means there's inventory, and buyers have more leverage than they would in a sold-out community. If you're considering Eastbrook, this window — while construction is still active — is when you've got the most negotiating room. You can browse current Eastbrook listings to see what's available right now.

Schools and Families

Families here have solid school options without driving across the city.

Ecole Wascana Plains (K-8, Public/French Immersion) — The primary school for the area, offering both English and French Immersion. The trail system connects to the school, so walking and biking are realistic options.

Ecole St. Elizabeth (K-8, Catholic/French Immersion) — Catholic families get a French Immersion option as well, keeping kids in the east end for elementary school.

Campbell Collegiate (Grades 9-12) — The main public high school for southeast Regina. It's about a 10-15 minute drive, so it's not walkable — that's the trade-off with newer neighbourhoods on this side of the city.

Miller Comprehensive — Another high school option that serves this part of Regina, particularly for Catholic families.

Having both public and Catholic French Immersion elementary schools accessible from the neighbourhood is a genuine advantage that a lot of Regina families drive across town for.

Parks, Trails, and Things to Do

This is where Eastbrook's planning philosophy really shows up.

The parks here were built before the homes. That's not a marketing line — it's literally what happened. Crosbie Park, with its pirate-themed accessible playground, was open and ready for families before most of the surrounding streets had houses on them. Kiswahep Park adds to the green space as well. All told, there are over 24 acres of parkland within this 180-acre community. That's roughly 13% of the entire neighbourhood dedicated to parks and green space.

The Ducks Unlimited partnership created 1.8 kilometres of naturalized walking trails that wind through native prairie habitat and stormwater wetlands. It doesn't feel like a typical suburban trail — the plantings are intentional, the habitat is real, and you'll see birds and wildlife you wouldn't expect in a city neighbourhood.

For shopping and recreation, Sandra Schmirler Leisure Centre is nearby with a pool, fitness centre, and programming. The Aurora shopping area — Costco, Landmark Cinemas, and additional retail — is a short drive east. For daily groceries and errands, you're looking at a five to ten minute drive to the nearest major options.

If you're comparing neighbourhoods across this part of the city, it's also worth looking at Greens on Gardiner, which offers genuine walkability to Acre 21's shops and restaurants, or The Towns, which is also in active development and offers a different mix of housing options. Both are nearby and give you a useful comparison point.

The Honest Downsides

I wouldn't be doing my job if I only told you the good parts. Here's what you should think about before committing.

Above-average pricing. At $479K to $670K, you're paying well above the city median. You're getting new construction and intentional design for that premium, but it's still a significant financial commitment compared to other Regina neighbourhoods.

Still under construction. Builders are actively releasing new phases, which means construction traffic, dust, and noise in parts of the community. That'll settle over time, but it's the reality right now.

No mature trees. The neighbourhood has only been developing since 2017. The naturalized plantings along the trails are beautiful, but the streetscape doesn't have the canopy that a 30-year-old neighbourhood does. Give it another decade or two.

High school commute. Campbell Collegiate is a 10-15 minute drive. Until new high schools are built in the southeast, that's just part of the deal with newer neighbourhoods on this side of the city.

Community still finding its identity. Eastbrook has great bones and a strong design vision, but it's young. The coffee shops, the annual events, the community character that comes with time — that's still being built. If you want an established feel right away, look at something like Woodland Grove instead.

None of these are dealbreakers for the right buyer. But they're things I'd want you to know before you fall in love with a listing and realize the neighbourhood doesn't match what you expected day to day.

It's still being built out, which matters if you're thinking about buying here. Active construction means you've got options—new builds from multiple builders, resale homes from early phases, and different price points depending on what you're after. There are roughly 20 listings active in Eastbrook right now, which is a lot more inventory than most East Regina neighbourhoods. That gives buyers something they don't always have in this market: choice.

Let's get into the actual numbers.

What Homes Cost Right Now

Eastbrook has one of the widest price ranges in East Regina because there's such a mix of housing types.

Semi-detached homes start around $370,000 for about 1,100 square feet. These are newer builds—3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, laned configurations with rear parking. They're a genuine entry point into a neighbourhood that otherwise runs much higher.

Detached laned homes (front porch style, garage in the back) sit in the $430,000 to $530,000 range. You're getting 1,400 to 1,600 square feet, open-concept main floors, and that distinct architectural character that makes Eastbrook look the way it does.

Front-attached garage homes with more square footage—think 1,700 to 2,000+ square feet—run from $550,000 to $600,000. And the larger executive-style homes, especially ones backing green space or on premium lots, push into the $670,000 to $730,000 range.

For context, Regina's citywide median home price is around $335,000 as of early 2026. Even Eastbrook's entry-level options sit well above that. You're paying a premium here, but you're also getting new construction, enforced architectural standards, and a neighbourhood that was planned from the ground up with walkability and green space in mind.

How Prices Have Changed

Regina's housing market has been on a steady climb. The average residential sale price rose about 6% between 2024 and 2025 citywide, and Royal LePage is forecasting another 4% increase for 2026. Single-family detached homes are expected to see the strongest gains—around 4.5% year over year.

Eastbrook benefits from that broader trend, but it's also got its own dynamic. Because it's still under active development, pricing is influenced by what builders are releasing in new phases. Builder pricing has crept up over the past couple of years as construction costs have risen—materials, labour, new building code requirements. A home that started at $510,000 in 2023 might be listed at $555,000 for a similar build today.

Resale homes here are interesting too. Buyers sometimes prefer a resale Eastbrook home over a new build because they can skip the GST (which is baked into new construction pricing) and get a home that's already landscaped. That demand keeps resale values strong.

The neighbourhood is still early enough in its development that there's real upside. As more amenities come online and phases fill in, early buyers tend to see solid appreciation.

How Fast Homes Sell Here

Across Eastbrook, the average days on market sits around 25 days—which is right in line with Regina's broader market. But that number hides some important differences.

Resale homes that are already landscaped and lived-in tend to move faster. Buyers who don't want to wait for a new build or deal with construction timelines gravitate toward these, and they often sell within the first couple of weeks if they're priced right.

New construction listings can sit a bit longer, partly because builders keep inventory available and partly because buyers are comparing floor plans across multiple builders. That's not a sign of weak demand—it's just how new-construction shopping works.

Regina overall is sitting at about 2 months of supply right now, which firmly favours sellers. Eastbrook has a bit more inventory than most East Regina neighbourhoods simply because builders are still releasing lots, but demand has stayed consistent.

What You Get at Different Price Points

$370,000–$460,000 (semi-detached and smaller laned homes): This is your entry into Eastbrook. Semi-detached homes around 1,100 square feet give you 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in a brand-new build. Laned homes at the higher end of this range bump you up to about 1,400 square feet with a detached feel and rear garage. You won't get a huge yard, but you'll get that Eastbrook architectural style and walkable access to Acre 21 (groceries, restaurants, banking—all within a few minutes on foot). These are popular with first-time buyers and young couples who want to get into East Regina without stretching past $500K.

$480,000–$600,000 (mid-range detached homes): This is the heart of Eastbrook's market. You're looking at 1,500 to 1,800 square feet, 3 to 4 bedrooms, open-concept main floors, and the kinds of finishes that make these homes feel a step above—stone feature walls, electric fireplaces, upgraded kitchens. Many come with suite-ready basements (side entrance, framed walls, roughed-in plumbing), which is a real asset if you want rental income down the road. At this price point, you're getting the full Eastbrook experience without paying for a premium lot position.

$620,000–$730,000+ (larger homes and premium lots): Here you're looking at 1,800 to 2,100+ square feet, 4+ bedrooms, bonus rooms, double attached garages, and finished basements—some with fully legal suites already completed. The biggest price driver at this level is lot position. Homes backing onto naturalized green space or parks command the most. Fully landscaped yards with underground sprinklers and rear decks are common at this tier. These homes appeal to growing families who want space to spread out and investors who see the rental suite as a mortgage helper.

Is It a Buyer's or Seller's Market?

Regina's been in seller's market territory for over a year now, and Eastbrook follows that trend—but with a twist. Because builders are still actively releasing phases and lots, buyers have more selection here than in established neighbourhoods where you might see 2 or 3 listings total.

That active construction gives buyers some leverage they wouldn't have elsewhere. You can comparison shop between builders. You can negotiate on upgrades, closing timelines, or included features. You can't always do that in a place like Woodland Grove or Wood Meadows, where inventory is scarce and sellers hold more cards.

For sellers—especially those in the earlier phases who already have landscaping done and a lived-in home—you're in a strong position. Resale buyers in Eastbrook are motivated, and they're willing to pay a fair price to skip the new-build wait.

What to Know Before You Buy or Sell Here

If you're buying new construction, remember that the listed price typically includes GST and PST, but confirm that with the builder. Landscaping, fencing, and window coverings are often not included—budget an extra $15,000 to $25,000 for those.

If you're buying resale, you avoid the tax hit and usually get a home that's already set up. Pay attention to whether the basement is finished, suite-ready, or unfinished—that changes the value significantly.

Property taxes in Eastbrook run around $5,500 to $6,500 per year depending on assessed value. The Saskatchewan New Home Warranty covers most builds here, which provides some peace of mind on newer homes.

And keep an eye on school announcements. Eastbrook is served by Ecole Wascana Plains and Ecole St. Elizabeth right now, with a future elementary and high school planned within the community. That's a meaningful draw for families.

Finding Your Place in Eastbrook

Eastbrook's got something most Regina neighbourhoods don't: real architectural character in a brand-new community. It's not finished yet, and that's actually part of the opportunity. Prices are still accessible compared to what they'll likely be once construction wraps up and inventory tightens.

If you've got questions about specific Eastbrook homes or you want to talk through what makes sense for your budget, I'm happy to walk through it with you. No rush, no pressure—just honest information about what's actually happening here.Eastbrook isn’t like other new neighbourhoods in Regina. Most new developments hand you a row of vinyl-sided houses that all look the same, and you figure out which one’s yours by checking the house number. Eastbrook’s different. There’s an Architectural Control Committee that reviews every single build, and they enforce variety—Tudor next to Prairie next to Farmhouse next to Modern. No two identical houses on the same street. It’s one of the few places in the city where “new construction” doesn’t mean “cookie-cutter.”

It’s still being built out, which matters if you’re thinking about buying here. Active construction means you’ve got options—new builds from multiple builders, resale homes from early phases, and different price points depending on what you’re after. There are roughly 20 listings active in Eastbrook right now, which is a lot more inventory than most East Regina neighbourhoods. That gives buyers something they don’t always have in this market: choice.

Resale homes that are already landscaped and lived-in tend to move faster. Buyers who don’t want to wait for a new build or deal with construction timelines gravitate toward these, and they often sell within the first couple of weeks if they’re priced right.

New construction listings can sit a bit longer, partly because builders keep inventory available and partly because buyers are comparing floor plans across multiple builders. That’s not a sign of weak demand—it’s just how new-construction shopping works.

Regina overall is sitting at about 2 months of supply right now, which firmly favours sellers. Eastbrook has a bit more inventory than most East Regina neighbourhoods simply because builders are still releasing lots, but demand has stayed consistent.

What You Get at Different Price Points

$370,000–$460,000 (semi-detached and smaller laned homes): This is your entry into Eastbrook. Semi-detached homes around 1,100 square feet give you 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in a brand-new build. Laned homes at the higher end of this range bump you up to about 1,400 square feet with a detached feel and rear garage. You won’t get a huge yard, but you’ll get that Eastbrook architectural style and walkable access to Acre 21 (groceries, restaurants, banking—all within a few minutes on foot). These are popular with first-time buyers and young couples who want to get into East Regina without stretching past $500K.

$480,000–$600,000 (mid-range detached homes): This is the heart of Eastbrook’s market. You’re looking at 1,500 to 1,800 square feet, 3 to 4 bedrooms, open-concept main floors, and the kinds of finishes that make these homes feel a step above—stone feature walls, electric fireplaces, upgraded kitchens. Many come with suite-ready basements (side entrance, framed walls, roughed-in plumbing), which is a real asset if you want rental income down the road. At this price point, you’re getting the full Eastbrook experience without paying for a premium lot position.

$620,000–$730,000+ (larger homes and premium lots): Here you’re looking at 1,800 to 2,100+ square feet, 4+ bedrooms, bonus rooms, double attached garages, and finished basements—some with fully legal suites already completed. The biggest price driver at this level is lot position. Homes backing onto naturalized green space or parks command the most. Fully landscaped yards with underground sprinklers and rear decks are common at this tier. These homes appeal to growing families who want space to spread out and investors who see the rental suite as a mortgage helper.

Is It a Buyer’s or Seller’s Market?

Regina’s been in seller’s market territory for over a year now, and Eastbrook follows that trend—but with a twist. Because builders are still actively releasing phases and lots, buyers have more selection here than in established neighbourhoods where you might see 2 or 3 listings total.

That active construction gives buyers some leverage they wouldn’t have elsewhere. You can comparison shop between builders. You can negotiate on upgrades, closing timelines, or included features. You can’t always do that in a place like Woodland Grove or Wood Meadows, where inventory is scarce and sellers hold more cards.

For sellers—especially those in the earlier phases who already have landscaping done and a lived-in home—you’re in a strong position. Resale buyers in Eastbrook are motivated, and they’re willing to pay a fair price to skip the new-build wait.

What to Know Before You Buy or Sell Here

If you’re buying new construction, remember that the listed price typically includes GST and PST, but confirm that with the builder. Landscaping, fencing, and window coverings are often not included—budget an extra $15,000 to $25,000 for those.

If you’re buying resale, you avoid the tax hit and usually get a home that’s already set up. Pay attention to whether the basement is finished, suite-ready, or unfinished—that changes the value significantly.

Property taxes in Eastbrook run around $5,500 to $6,500 per year depending on assessed value. The Saskatchewan New Home Warranty covers most builds here, which provides some peace of mind on newer homes.

And keep an eye on school announcements. Eastbrook is served by Ecole Wascana Plains and Ecole St. Elizabeth right now, with a future elementary and high school planned within the community. That’s a meaningful draw for families.

Finding Your Place in Eastbrook

Eastbrook’s got something most Regina neighbourhoods don’t: real architectural character in a brand-new community. It’s not finished yet, and that’s actually part of the opportunity. Prices are still accessible compared to what they’ll likely be once construction wraps up and inventory tightens.

Elementary Schools

Dr. A.E. Perry School serves parts of Eastbrook and the surrounding southeast area with a K–8 program. It's a public school, and it's one of the primary catchment schools for the neighbourhood. Perry draws families who want a neighbourhood school they can walk to, and it's got that feel—accessible, integrated into the community. You'll want to verify the exact catchment boundaries when you're looking at a specific address, though, because not every part of Eastbrook falls under Perry's zone.

St. Elizabeth School is the Catholic elementary option nearby. If you're sending your kids through the Catholic system, St. Elizabeth serves families in and around Eastbrook. Catholic enrolment works a bit differently than public—you'll need to confirm your family's eligibility and registration process with Regina Catholic Schools.

Both schools feed into larger high school systems, so you've got choices down the road. The thing parents sometimes miss is that catchment areas do shift, and new subdivisions sometimes sit in transition zones for a year or two while enrolment is being sorted out. When you're seriously looking at homes in Eastbrook, I recommend calling the school directly to confirm which catchment you're in. No rush, no pressure—it's just one conversation that saves confusion later.

High Schools

Families in Eastbrook typically have two strong options: Campbell Collegiate (public) and Dr. Martin LeBoldus Catholic High School (Catholic).

Campbell Collegiate is in southeast Regina and serves the broader east end. It's got a solid reputation, offers Advanced Placement (AP) courses, and has competitive athletic programs. The commute from Eastbrook isn't brutal—it's a few kilometres—but it's not a walk-to-school situation like elementary might be.

Dr. Martin LeBoldus serves Catholic families and offers a full range of programs, including International Baccalaureate (IB), which is a big draw for some families. Again, you'll want to verify catchment, but both schools are accessible from Eastbrook.

The honest thing I'll tell you: Eastbrook isn't in a super-tight catchment for either school, so you've got a bit of flexibility, but you'll also likely be looking at bus routes or drive time. That's pretty standard for southeast Regina, but it's worth factoring into your decision.

Childcare and Early Learning

Eastbrook's got a mix of options, and this is where I usually see families make their first real decision point. You've got home daycares scattered through the neighbourhood—some licensed, some not—and you've also got proximity to larger childcare centres in the broader southeast area.

Licensed spots are the golden ticket, but they're also the hardest to find. Waitlists in Regina can stretch months, so if you're planning a move and you've got young kids, you'll want to start your search early. Like, before you even put in an offer early.

I won't sugarcoat it: childcare is tight in Regina right now. Eastbrook doesn't have a major centre right in the neighbourhood, but you're close enough to options in the southeast that you've got choices. When you're house hunting here, I'd recommend mapping out your childcare backup plan before you commit.

Family-Friendly Features

This is where Eastbrook's newer design really shines. The neighbourhood's got parks integrated throughout—not tacked on at the edges, but actually woven into the streets. Your kids can ride bikes to green space without you needing to load everyone in the car.

Sandra Schmirler Leisure Centre is nearby and is a huge resource for families. Swimming lessons, drop-in programs, community classes—the kind of stuff that keeps your kids active and gives you an actual evening sometimes. You're also close to Greens on Gardiner's Acre 21 commercial hub for shopping and dining.

Safety-wise, Eastbrook's got that newer-neighbourhood advantage: good lighting, clear sightlines, the kind of street layout where kids can play outside and you're not constantly worried. If you want to know more about what day-to-day life is actually like here, I've written a full guide to living in Eastbrook.

What Parents Should Know

Verify your catchment. I can't stress this enough. The address you're looking at might be Dr. A.E. Perry, or it might be in a different zone. Call the school. Five minutes, huge peace of mind.

Registration happens early. If your kid's starting kindergarten or you're moving mid-year, don't wait until September. Get on the school's website now and find out the registration window.

Honest limitations: Eastbrook is newer, which is great for home maintenance but can mean the neighbourhood's still building its community feel. You won't find a ton of established sports leagues or neighbourhood traditions yet. The schools are solid, but they're not specialty-programs-everywhere—they're good public and Catholic schools serving a suburban area. If you're looking for a specific program like French Immersion, you might need to travel outside your immediate catchment.
