    Northeast Calgary Communities

    First-time buyers looking for a more affordable property would do well to begin their search in the northeast quadrant. As mentioned above, most NE homes for sale in Calgary are more affordable when compared to similar properties in other districts of the city.

    Some northeast areas do not follow this trend however, like the exclusive lake community of Coral Springs or up-and-coming inner city neighbourhood Renfrew. Then there is Bridgeland, a highly sought after community just minutes from downtown which is easily accessible via a walkway overtop Memorial Drive. Bridgeland is home to a wide range of new infills and condos, and is where you'll find some of the city's best restaurants like Sushi Bar Zipang, Blue Star Diner and Shiki Menya to name a few examples.

    If you're looking for newer Northeast Calgary real estate in the suburbs, communities like Redstone, Skyview Ranch and Saddle Ridge have a wide selection of new construction properties to choose from. Brand new communities that have just begun development include Livingston and Cornerstone / Cornerbrook.

    Northeast Calgary Amenities

    Northeast Calgary real estate is served by a long list of in-community shopping plazas and larger malls/facilities as well as ample public transportation routes throughout, including a C-Train Line that extends to Saddletowne in Saddleridge. Martindale also has its own C-Train station on the northeast blue line from downtown, while Taradale residents are close enough to Saddletowne station to walk.

    Sunridge Mall is the largest shopping centre in the northeast quadrant. Home to over 150 top brand name stores and services, you'll be hard done by to not find what you're looking for. Close to Sunridge Mall is the Village Square Recreation Centre which hosts one of the city's largest indoor wavepools and a Calgary Public Library.

    Atlantic Avenue (17th Avenue SE) is home to some of the most diverse cuisines you'll find in the city. From Chinese to Italian to Ethiopian to Thai, if you're browsing NE homes for sale in Calgary nearby you'll love what this recently renovated avenue has to offer in terms of restaurants, shops and services just minutes from home.
