St Albans Real Estate

Geographically extensive and demographically diverse, St Albans is one of Christchurch’s largest suburbs, stretching from Merivale to Mairehau. Known for its cohesive community spirit, St Alban’s hub is Edgeware Village where ethnic food outlets, local bookshops and an award-winning butchery co-exist harmoniously.

Culturally eclectic, the architecture of St Albans is also diverse, ranging from new townhouses that neighbour Bealey Avenue and the city centre, to the leafy streets and sun-dappled character homes a few blocks back. This enticing suburb has a reputation as the home of parks. There’s Abberley Park, St Albans Park, Rutland Reserve and Packe Street Gardens, complemented by sports venues at Rugby, Westminster and English Parks. In fact, St Albans is the base for the Crusaders rugby team and the Canterbury United Football Club.

Vibrant and engaging, St Albans is proud of her inner-city marae, Rehua. Multi-tribal and multi-cultural, Rehua reflects the attitude of this inclusive suburb – a place where people can belong and find common unity.
