Real estate in Millidgeville, New Brunswick

Millidgeville sits on the north edge of Saint John, where the Kennebecasis River meets Brothers Cove. It's home to the UNB Saint John campus and the Saint John Regional Hospital, and much of the neighbourhood looks out over the water.

Living in Millidgeville

The University of New Brunswick's Saint John campus sits in Tucker Park here, with views across the Kennebecasis toward Grand Bay-Westfield. The Saint John Regional Hospital, the province's largest, is the area's biggest employer. The Royal Kennebecasis Yacht Club has marked the shoreline since the early 1900s, and Millidgeville borders Rockwood Park along its southern edge.

Housing leans toward larger, newer homes on quiet streets, many with river glimpses or full water views. It draws families and professionals connected to the hospital or the university, and it's consistently one of the more sought-after addresses in the city.

Selling here

Selling in Millidgeville

Buyers here are often moving up within the neighbourhood or relocating for work at the hospital or university. Pricing that reflects any water view accurately matters as much as marketing that reaches buyers beyond Saint John.

  • Pricing that accounts for view and frontage
  • Preparation guidance for larger homes
  • Marketing to hospital and university-connected buyers
  • Negotiation through to closing
Andrew Shaw, REALTOR® with REAL Broker

Millidgeville is consistently one of the strongest holds in Saint John, and the university and hospital give it a floor most neighbourhoods don't have. If a water view comes with the address, I think it's worth paying for.
