Heritage Lakes St. Albert Homes & Real Estate
Heritage Lakes is so named for the two water features that provide spots of tranquillity in this neighbourhood. The community sits on the southernmost edge of St. Albert and is midsize with ~3,500 people and a median age of 39.4.

It’s easy to access one of the many parks located throughout the neighbourhood, and proximity to Edmonton and 170th Street makes commuting easy. Most single-family homes retail on the higher end of $390,000.
