New construction homes
in Alces, Edmonton.

Alces is predominantly single-family, but not exclusively — townhomes make up 29% of active listings here, a notably higher share than the single-family-dominant norm elsewhere in the city, reflecting Alces’ more compact, wetland-woven site plan

Common features across the current inventory: 30 homes list a garage, 12 have a side entrance (the standard precursor to a future basement suite), 21 include a bonus room. 2 listings currently have a finished basement suite — so if suite income is your goal here, most buyers are working from a side entrance and finishing it themselves.

Alces — Latin for “moose” — is in southeast Edmonton, near Ellerslie Road and 17 Street, about 10 minutes from Anthony Henday Drive, South Edmonton Common and The Meadows Recreation Centre. It was planned under the working name “Decoteau North” before being formally renamed Alces; its own Neighbourhood Structure Plan was approved by City Council on 17 September 2018, one of five neighbourhoods — alongside Decoteau, Kettle Lakes, Meltwater and Snowberry — making up the broader Decoteau Area Structure Plan.

It sits immediately south of Aster, also covered on this site. The community is master-planned around protected wetlands and local bird habitat, with over 3.5 km of shared-use pathways, a pump track, basketball court and playground threaded through the neighbourhood — features that made it a finalist for Best New Community at the 2025 BILD Awards of Excellence.

Multiple builders are active in Alces rather than a single master builder, offering single-family homes, rear-lane homes, townhomes and three-storey residences.

Alces is developed by Bedrock Homes. Builders listed as active in the community include Bedrock Homes, Excel Homes, Parkwood and StreetSide.

A note on how we source this. The MLS® feed behind this site carries the listing brokerage, not the builder, so we cannot automatically attribute a specific home to a specific builder from the feed alone. The builder list above comes from Bedrock Homes' own community materials.

Catchments in developing neighbourhoods change as schools are built and boundaries are redrawn, and we would rather send you to the authoritative source than publish a list that quietly goes stale. Both Edmonton school boards maintain official address-level finders:

• Edmonton Public Schools — Find a School
• Edmonton Catholic Schools — Find a School

Enter the exact address of any home you are considering — in a newer neighbourhood, two homes a few blocks apart can fall into different catchments.

The 1 community bordering Alces is active new-construction market in its own right. Together with Alces they account for 96 active new-construction listings in one contiguous stretch of Edmonton — a genuinely efficient area to shop, since you can compare 2 communities in an afternoon.

The pattern worth noticing: all 2 communities price within a narrow band of each other. Across the group, price per square foot is close enough that the differences are mostly about home size and lot type rather than a premium for the postal code.

The median new-construction list price in Alces is $507,400, about 7% below the Edmonton-wide new-construction median of $545,998.

Price per square foot tells a similar story: $295 in Alces against $308 across Edmonton — genuinely cheaper on a like-for-like basis, not just smaller homes. Within Alces itself, price per square foot ranges from $257 to $351, a spread wide enough that lot position, finish level and builder all clearly move the number.
