Living in Inglewood: A St. Albert Neighbourhood Guide

Inglewood is a neighbourhood where the wrong number can lead you badly astray — so let me start with a warning I'd give any client at my kitchen table. If someone hands you a single "Inglewood median price," be skeptical. This is a mixed community, and most of what trades here is condos and attached homes, not detached houses. Blend those together and you get a figure that describes neither market well. After 25+ years in St. Albert, I'd rather give you two honest numbers than one misleading one.

The Character of Inglewood

Inglewood is a largely condo and attached-home neighbourhood, with a smaller pocket of detached houses. Over the last 12 months, roughly 83% of sales here were condos or apartments — this is, first and foremost, a condo community. That's not a criticism; it's the reality that shapes everything about buying and selling here. It makes Inglewood one of St. Albert's more accessible entry points to ownership, with a good mix of first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors.

The Market, By the Numbers (Split Honestly)

I'm going to deliberately not give you one blended "Inglewood median," because it would mislead you. Here's the honest split:

The condo / apartment market (the bulk of Inglewood)

• All-types median: about $370K (n=23, mostly condos). Because condos and attached homes are the overwhelming majority of sales, this figure mostly describes the condo market — which is exactly the part of Inglewood most buyers are shopping.
• Days on market: about 13 — quick.
• Sale-to-list ratio: roughly 99.4% — trading close to asking.

The detached market (small and thinly traded)

• Only around 4 detached sales in the last 12 months, in a rough range of $585K to $700K.
• That is far too thin a sample to quote a precise "detached median." I flag it as directional at best. With this few sales, one unusual home swings the whole picture.

So the honest framing is this: Inglewood is a mixed, largely condo/attached-home neighbourhood. If you want a firm price signal, it's in the condo market. If you want detached in Inglewood, expect limited supply and be prepared to judge each home on its own merits rather than a reliable average.

Who Inglewood Suits

Inglewood suits first-time buyers, singles and couples, downsizers, and investors who want an affordable, lower-maintenance foot in the St. Albert market. Condo living here means fees and bylaws, but also less upkeep and a lower entry price. It suits people who value convenience and accessibility over a big lot and a workshop. If a detached house with a yard is non-negotiable, Inglewood can work — but you'll be shopping a very small pool, and patience is part of the plan.

Getting Around and Amenities

Inglewood is well positioned within St. Albert, with easy access to shopping, services, and transit, and quick connections toward St. Albert Trail and out of the city. For condo buyers especially, that convenience is part of the appeal — a lot of daily needs are close at hand. As with any condo purchase, I'd pay as much attention to the specific building — its fees, reserve fund, and bylaws — as to the neighbourhood itself.

My Buying and Selling Take

If you're buying in Inglewood, know which market you're actually in. For a condo, the numbers are solid and the market is quick, so be ready and read the building's financials carefully before you write. For detached, don't anchor to any single "average" — there isn't a dependable one here — and lean on real, recent comparables instead.

If you're selling, the same split applies. Condo sellers benefit from a fast, close-to-asking market and should price to it. Detached sellers in Inglewood are in a thin market where the right buyer and honest pricing matter more than any headline number.

I don't make guarantees about the market, but I will give you the unblended truth and pull the comparables that actually fit your home. Start with the Inglewood community page, then let's have a straight conversation.
