Hillhurst in the northwest has become one of Calgary’s most desirable inner-city communities, where there is a significant demand for new infills. The neighbourhood’s prime location just minutes north of the downtown core and close to trendy Kensington has resulted in many new infill developments. Hillhurst still has many older homes, and the infill market will undoubtedly continue to be hot in this area in the coming years.
Hillhurst offers an inner-city lifestyle in a new home with extremely convenient access to services and amenities, both in the community and surrounding area. For families, Queen Elizabeth Elementary, Junior High, and High Schools are located on the same site in the heart of the neighbourhood. The University of Calgary, SAIT, Foothills Hospital, and the Alberta College of Art and Design are all nearby, as are the Bow River pathways and many outdoor recreation areas. Downtown is within walking distance, several LRT stations are nearby, and North Hill Centre is located just to the north.
