Some of the best rentals in Alberta are in the places you don’t see featured in glossy listings or flashy ads. Stony Plain is one of those places — and The Brickyard Townhomes might just be its best-kept secret.
If you’re looking for a rental that gives you space, modern finishes, a friendly community, and a price tag that doesn’t make you wince, this is the address that quietly checks every box.
Where Is The Brickyard Townhomes?
The Brickyard sits at 51 Brickyard Dr in Stony Plain — a fast-growing town just west of Spruce Grove and a comfortable 35-minute drive from downtown Edmonton. Stony Plain has the feel of small-town Alberta done right: walkable downtown, well-kept neighborhoods, strong community spirit, and access to nature in every direction. The Brickyard is tucked into a residential pocket that feels established and quiet, while still being minutes from groceries, schools, and Highway 16A.
Why a Townhome Beats an Apartment for Many Renters
There’s a sweet spot between renting a small apartment and buying a house — and it’s called a townhome. The Brickyard Townhomes give you what apartments can’t: more square footage, multiple levels, your own entrance, and the kind of separation that turns a rental into a real home. For families, couples, and professionals tired of upstairs neighbors, that difference shows up every single day.
What You Get at The Brickyard
Starting at $1,475 per month, The Brickyard Townhomes punch well above their weight. Here’s what’s included in the package:
- Spacious, multi-level townhome layouts
- Renovated, move-in-ready interiors — no surprises
- On-site parking
- Pet-friendly policies
- In-house maintenance team for fast repairs
- On-site Community Leaders who know your name
- Quiet, residential setting
- Easy highway access for commuters
For under $1,500 a month in 2026, finding a townhome of this quality this close to Edmonton is genuinely rare.
Stony Plain Is the Quiet Win
Renters who choose Stony Plain over Edmonton or even Spruce Grove tend to share a similar story: they wanted more space, more peace, and more value — and they didn’t want to give up access to amenities or a reasonable commute. Stony Plain delivers on all three.
The town has its own grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, schools, and recreation centre. The Heritage Park is a year-round community hub. The Multicultural Heritage Centre is a unique gem. And the Trans Canada Trail runs right through, perfect for walks and bike rides. You don’t have to drive into the city for groceries, school, or a date night — but when you want to, Edmonton is right there.
Who The Brickyard Is Perfect For
The Brickyard tends to be a particularly good fit for: families who want a real home without a mortgage, couples upgrading from a one-bedroom apartment, hybrid and remote workers who don’t need to commute daily, anyone with pets who wants more room to roam, and renters tired of paying city prices for shrinking spaces.
The GSK Properties Difference
Like every GSK rental, The Brickyard comes with the full package: transparent pricing with no hidden fees, fast in-house maintenance, on-site Community Leaders, an easy-to-use online portal for service requests and visitor parking, and access to local discount cards for area businesses.
