Strathcona homes for sale offer a mix of real estate consisting of new infills, mature bungalows, and semi-bungalow houses, and high-rise condominiums. Strathcona properties range from old war-time houses to new builds with fully finished tri-plexes with legal basement suites. Originally, Strathcona was at the heart of our municipality near the University of Alberta in southwest Edmonton. Homeowners have long been drawn to Strathcona for various reasons including the old genuine character houses. It is a happening area with busy pubs and dance clubs, and restaurants along Whyte Avenue. It’s also a theatre hotspot, home to the offbeat Varscona Theatre, Strathcona-based Walterdale Playhouse, and major annual festivals.
