Evergreen

Living in Evergreen, Saskatoon

Evergreen is one of Saskatoon's newest northeast neighbourhoods, planned as a walkable "urban village" with parks, trails and schools at its centre. The first lots were released by the City in 2010, so most homes here are modern builds on newer streets. It sits right beside the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo, which gives it a greener, quieter feel than many suburbs. If you are searching for Evergreen homes for sale, the listings above are pulled live from the MLS® and updated regularly.

Evergreen Quick Facts

Who Evergreen Is a Great Fit For

Evergreen suits young families, first-time buyers and move-up buyers who want a newer home, schools within walking distance and plenty of green space. The mix of single-family homes, townhouses and condos also makes it a good option for downsizers who want low-maintenance living in a newer area.

Location and Commute

Evergreen is on Saskatoon's northeast edge, with McOrmond Drive running through the middle of the neighbourhood. McOrmond connects south to the University Heights shopping area and to College Drive and Attridge Drive for trips across the city. Most drives downtown or to the University of Saskatchewan take roughly 15 to 20 minutes, depending on traffic.

Schools in Evergreen

Evergreen has two elementary schools in a shared joint-use building that opened for the 2017–2018 school year: Sylvia Fedoruk School (628 Manek Road), part of Saskatoon Public Schools, and St. Nicholas Catholic School (530 Manek Road), part of Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools. Both sit beside the neighbourhood's core park. Saskatoon Public Schools lists Sylvia Fedoruk School as one of its schools restricted to students living in its area, so where a home sits matters for that school. Nearby high schools include Centennial Collegiate and St. Joseph High School in the University Heights area. Boundaries, programs and busing can change, so confirm details for a specific address with the school division before you buy.

Parks, Trails and Things to Do

Green space is Evergreen's signature. The neighbourhood is designed around a connected park system with about nine kilometres of looping trails, and the pedestrian Green Bridge crosses McOrmond Drive to link the east and west sides safely. Funk Park, the central core park, sits next to the schools, and smaller parks such as Korpan Park, Lacoursiere Park and Richards Park are scattered through the area. Right next door, the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo offers walking paths, picnic areas and the city zoo. The Evergreen Community Association also runs programs and events through the year.

Shopping and Services

A village centre and a larger district commercial area are part of the neighbourhood plan, with shops and services continuing to fill in along McOrmond Drive. For big-box stores, groceries, restaurants and services, the University Heights Suburban Centre is a short drive south.

Homes for Sale in Evergreen

Because the whole neighbourhood has been built since 2010, you will find newer single-family homes (including bungalows, two-storeys and bi-levels), semi-detached homes, townhouses and condos. Many homes offer modern open-concept layouts, and streets were laid out so most homes get good sun exposure.

Pros and Cons of Living in Evergreen

Pros: newer homes, two elementary schools in the neighbourhood, an extensive trail network, the Forestry Farm Park & Zoo next door, and a strong community feel.

Cons: it is on the edge of the city, so downtown commutes are longer than from central areas, and some commercial amenities are still developing.

A Bit of Evergreen History

Evergreen is named for a heritage stand of 50-year-old Scots pine trees that were kept as part of the neighbourhood layout. The trees were originally part of the Sutherland Forest Nursery Station, the forestry program that became today's Forestry Farm Park. Part of the neighbourhood was built on the site of the former Bridge City Speedway.
