Kensington Green is a hidden gem for those seeking newer construction in North Regina. Developed largely in the 2000s and 2010s, this subdivision sits immediately north of Uplands, offering a distinct shift in architecture. It was designed with a “neotraditional” philosophy, featuring homes with welcoming front verandas and garages tucked away in rear lanes. This layout creates cleaner, friendlier streetscapes that are perfect for evening walks, all while being just minutes from the Ring Road and the Northgate Mall.
Kensington Green — front-porch streets on the city's quiet northern edge.
Kensington Green offers a quiet retreat from the city. Because it is located at the northern edge of residential development, there is virtually no through traffic.
The major perk here is the proximity to Mount Pleasant Sports Park. Residents can walk to the city's best toboggan hill, speed skating oval, and ball diamonds. It's an active family's dream location.
Kensington Green real estate is visually distinct. The architectural guidelines encouraged “front porch living,” so you will see many two-storey homes with covered verandas and detached double garages in the back.
This design maximizes curb appeal. Inside, these homes feature modern open-concept layouts, master ensuites, and walk-in closets that you won't find in the older homes of neighbouring Uplands.
There are no schools directly inside this small subdivision, so students are served by the schools in the adjacent Uplands neighbourhood:
Both schools are a short bus ride or drive away.
Broker's Market Note
Kensington Green is highly sought after by buyers looking for modern amenities without the density of the larger new subdivisions. Inventory here is typically lower than in areas like Harbour Landing. Homes with completed basement suites or high-end landscaping command a significant premium and move quickly.
While they are neighbours, the main difference is the age of the homes. Kensington Green is a modern development (mostly 2010s construction) featuring contemporary two-storey and modified bi-level homes. It offers a “new construction” alternative to the 1970s bungalows found in the adjacent Uplands area.
This is a purely residential neighbourhood with no internal schools. Students are typically served by the schools in the neighbouring Uplands community. Public students generally attend M.J. Coldwell School, while Catholic students attend St. Gregory School, both located just a short distance south.
It is arguably one of the quietest neighbourhoods in Regina. Because it is located at the very northern edge of the city limits and has no “through traffic” (it is a destination, not a shortcut), residents enjoy extremely low traffic volumes and a peaceful, semi-rural atmosphere.
