Eastbrook is a 180-acre master-planned community in southeast Regina that's still in its growth phase, and that's actually working in your favor right now. Since 2017, the developers have been intentional about how this neighborhood gets built—no cookie-cutter houses, genuine diversity in the architectural styles. You'll see Tudor homes next to Prairie-style properties, modern designs beside French Country estates. The Architectural Control Committee enforces actual design standards, which means the neighborhood looks thoughtfully put together instead of like every builder just did their own thing. Homes start around $479,900 for entry-level single-family (3+ bedrooms), run through $549,900 in the mid-range, and go up to about $669,900 for premium properties. What makes Eastbrook different is the infrastructure they've already built—parks and trails opened before the homes were finished, not after. That's unusual for new communities.
I've watched Eastbrook develop since 2017, and there's something intentional about the way this community is being built that you don't always see in newer subdivisions.
First, there's architectural diversity that's actually enforced. The Architectural Control Committee doesn't just suggest styles—they require design diversity. You're looking at Tudor homes, Prairie architecture, Arts and Crafts cottages, French Country estates, Farmhouse designs, and Modern properties all existing together. The exterior materials are premium too: vinyl siding requirements are higher-grade, and masonry is mandatory in certain applications. What this means on the ground is that when you drive through Eastbrook, it doesn't feel like one builder's playground. It feels like neighborhoods actually do when they evolve naturally over decades.
The second differentiator is environmental partnership. Eastbrook partnered with Ducks Unlimited to create naturalized stormwater management and integrated native prairie habitat. That's not just environmental checkboxes—it's the first new Regina community to do comprehensive naturalized landscape design. The 1.8 km of walking trails wind through this preserved habitat. It's functional environmental design, not just a marketing promise.
Third, the parks and recreation infrastructure opened before the homes were fully built. Most developments build neighborhoods and then scramble to create parks afterward. Eastbrook reverse-engineered this—Crosbie Park with its distinctive pirate-themed accessible playground was operational before thousands of residents arrived. Same with Kiswahep Park and the naturalized walking trails. There's 24+ acres of dedicated parkland in this 180-acre community, which is a genuinely high ratio.
I'll give you the straightforward picture on Eastbrook pricing. This is new construction in southeast Regina, which puts it above the citywide average but not in the luxury territory.
Here's what the market shows:
For context, Regina's citywide median is around $320,000. So yes, you're paying above average for Eastbrook. What you're getting is brand-new construction with modern building standards, planned community amenities, nearby schools, and the intentional design I mentioned earlier. The price premium reflects all of that.
Eastbrook also has townhomes and rental units available if you're looking at different product types, though the pricing data I'm referencing is single-family homes.
Eastbrook is still actively developing, which creates a slightly different dynamic than established neighborhoods. Here's what's happening:
You've got new inventory continuously coming on—builders are still constructing homes and releasing new phases. This is actually good for buyers because it creates consistent competition, which keeps pricing honest. You're not in a tight inventory situation where three properties get five offers. New construction also sets a price ceiling, because if existing inventory gets overpriced, buyers just walk across to the new builds.
For buyers, this means you've got leverage. Take your time, look at multiple options, compare new builds against resale properties. Builders are motivated to move inventory, and resale properties need to price competitively against that.
For sellers, the advantage is limited. Because new construction is available, your resale property needs to offer something the new builds don't—maturity, possibly lower price, or something unique in condition or lot position. Straight pricing competition against new homes rarely works in your favor.
Schools are usually the first real question families ask, and Eastbrook's situation is solid—you've got good options without crazy commutes.
Elementary: École Wascana Plains School
This is the primary public school serving Eastbrook residents. It opened in 2017 specifically for this area, a K-8 school with dual programming—English and French Immersion. Walking trails from residential areas connect directly to the school for families who prefer that option.
Key points parents should know:
High School: Campbell Collegiate
Students from Eastbrook feed into Campbell Collegiate for high school. It's Regina's largest public high school, located in Whitmore Park about 10-15 minutes south. Campbell offers Advanced Placement courses, French Immersion continuation, and extensive athletics. Transit connects Eastbrook to Campbell for students who don't drive yet.
Elementary: École St. Elizabeth School
For Catholic families, École St. Elizabeth opened in 2016 in the adjacent area to serve families like those settling in Eastbrook. It's a K-8 school with French Immersion and traditional programming in a joint-use facility designed for growth in this southeast corridor.
High School: Miller Comprehensive
Catholic students transition to Miller Comprehensive High School for secondary education. It offers Advanced Placement, French Immersion, athletics, and comprehensive Catholic programming.
Here's something worth noting: the province announced new joint-use schools for adjacent development areas. A new elementary school with capacity for 1,400 students and a high school for 2,000 students are planned in the southeast corridor. While technically in adjacent areas, these facilities will serve families from Eastbrook. When they open, students won't need to commute to Campbell or Miller anymore—high school options will be right in southeast Regina.
Safety is a reasonable question for any neighborhood, and I'll be straightforward about what the data shows. Eastbrook is a relatively new community in southeast Regina, which generally has lower crime rates than the citywide average.
Here's what contributes to safety in Eastbrook specifically:
Neighborhood design: The planned layout includes lit pathways, separated walking trails, and wide streets. This infrastructure creates natural visibility and reduces isolated spaces where problems can hide.
Active community: Families using parks, people walking on the trails to school and to shopping, neighbors encountering each other in public spaces—this consistent activity is the most effective natural deterrent to crime. Communities where people are visible and present tend to have lower incident rates.
Regional context: Regina's overall crime has declined 20% recently, with violent crime down 5.4% and property crime down 26%. The southeast quadrant runs well below citywide averages. Police clearance rates are 43%, which is above the national average of 37%.
Newer development demographics: Eastbrook attracts families and move-up buyers—people with stability and investment in the community. This demographic composition naturally supports safer neighborhoods.
One of Eastbrook's genuine strengths is the parks and recreation infrastructure I mentioned earlier. This isn't just green space—it's thoughtfully integrated into how the neighborhood functions.
This is the flagship park, and it's distinctive because it opened in 2017—before most of the homes were even built. The park features a pirate-themed accessible playground (kids genuinely love this), basketball court, and public art installations by artist Jason Robins. It's designed for inclusion, meaning kids of different abilities can play together. That thoughtfulness reflects Eastbrook's planning philosophy.
This park centers on an outdoor amphitheater that hosts neighborhood events and markets. Public art installations are integrated throughout. It's designed as a genuine gathering space, not just functional landscape.
The 1.8 km of naturalized walking trails wind through the Ducks Unlimited prairie habitat I mentioned. These trails are lit and separated from vehicle traffic, which means kids can bike to school or neighbors can walk to shopping without safety concerns. The trails connect residential areas to schools, parks, and to Acre 21 shopping center. That's genuine walkability, not just marketing language.
Horizon Station has a train-themed play structure designed for younger kids. There's also a dedicated off-leash dog park for pet owners—neighborhood parks that actually accommodate different residents.
Phase 4 parks are planned with multi-sport fields and additional inclusive play structures. For outdoor recreation beyond the neighborhood, Sandra Schmirler Leisure Centre is nearby with pools, fitness facilities, and programming.
Acre 21 is a 21-acre commercial hub built directly into the neighborhood, walkable from residential areas (about 15 minutes on foot). Save-On-Foods for groceries, Shoppers Drug Mart for pharmacy and health products, Dollarama, Co-op Gas Bar, and restaurants. The key thing here is that this isn't theoretical walkability—the pathways actually connect from where you live to the stores. You can genuinely run errands on foot or by bike.
If you know about The Everyday Kitchen, you know it's worth mentioning. This is a Regina institution famous for sourdough donuts and quality coffee. It's walkable from Eastbrook and worth the detour.
Canadian Brewhouse, Browns Socialhouse, Tipsy Samurai, McDonald's, Tim Hortons—normal neighborhood dining and quick-service options. Not a high-end food scene, but solid everyday choices.
For bigger shopping trips, Aurora is about 6 minutes away by car. Costco, Landmark Cinemas, Staples, PetSmart, Winners—the retail anchor stuff you need for household shopping or bulk purchases.
Eastbrook is about 14 minutes from downtown Regina by car depending on traffic. Public transit connects through Route 22 University-Arcola East and Route 60 Arcola Express, though I'll be honest—most residents drive.
For students getting to Campbell Collegiate or other schools outside the neighborhood, transit exists but it's not always practical depending on schedules. Most families end up with vehicles.
I always try to give clients the complete picture, not just the positives:
Community is still developing: Eastbrook isn't built out yet. That's great for price competition and new inventory, but you might experience ongoing construction in adjacent phases. If you want an established, settled neighborhood feeling, Eastbrook isn't that yet.
Younger landscape: Because the community is new, the tree canopy is immature. You won't have the established shade and mature landscaping that older neighborhoods offer. That takes 15-20 years to develop naturally.
Above-average pricing: You're paying above citywide average. The planning, amenities, and new construction justify the premium for many buyers, but it's worth acknowledging that more affordable options exist elsewhere in Regina.
Car dependency outside Acre 21: Despite the walkability to Acre 21 and schools, you'll still need a vehicle for most activities. Saskatchewan's climate and city layout mean transit isn't practical for everyone.
Home prices in Eastbrook typically range from $479,000 to about $670,000, with most transactions happening between $549,000-$599,000. This positions the neighborhood above Regina's citywide median ($320,000) but below luxury communities. You're paying for new construction with modern building standards, planned community amenities, and intentional neighborhood design enforced by architectural standards.
Eastbrook currently favors buyers because the community is still developing with new construction inventory being released regularly. New homes create price competition and give buyers options. Sellers competing directly against new construction need to offer something different—lower price, mature appeal, or unique lot position. As the community completes build-out, this dynamic will shift.
Public education: École Wascana Plains School (K-8, English and French Immersion) is located in the neighborhood, and Campbell Collegiate serves high school. Catholic education: École St. Elizabeth School (K-8) and Miller Comprehensive High School. Future elementary and high schools are planned for adjacent development areas that will serve Eastbrook families.
Eastbrook sits in southeast Regina, which has crime rates below the citywide average. The neighborhood's design—lit pathways, separated walking trails, open green space—creates natural surveillance. Active community presence in parks and on trails is a strong safety factor. Regina's violent crime is down 5.4% and property crime down 26% recently, with clearance rates at 43% (above the national 37% average).
Eastbrook stands out for intentional architectural diversity enforced by design standards, Ducks Unlimited naturalized stormwater partnership (first in Regina), parks and recreation infrastructure built before homes were completed, and coordinated planning across 180 acres. It's genuinely thoughtful master planning that you don't see in every new community—no cookie-cutter cookie-cutter aesthetic.
Acre 21 shopping centre is walkable from most Eastbrook homes—Save-On-Foods, Shoppers Drug Mart, Dollarama, Co-op Gas, restaurants. The Everyday Kitchen (famous sourdough donuts) is nearby. Aurora Shopping Centre is 6 minutes by car with Costco, Landmark Cinemas, Staples, PetSmart. Daily essentials are genuinely accessible on foot; bigger shopping needs require a short drive.
