Aspen Woods is an established estate community on the west side of Calgary, south of 17 Avenue SW and east of Stoney Trail, developed from the mid-2000s. It sits at the higher end of the Calgary market.
Its draw is a combination that is hard to assemble elsewhere: Aspen Landing for retail and restaurants, a concentration of well-regarded public and private schools in and around the community, mature landscaping, and quick access to Stoney Trail and Highway 1 for the mountains.
New construction is limited to occasional infill and custom builds on remaining lots. Aspen Woods appears here as the west-side comparison for buyers considering Alpine Park, the newer master plan a few minutes south on the ring road.
Commute note: Approximate drive to downtown Calgary via Bow Trail or Sarcee Trail, or the Blue Line from 69 Street station. Off-peak roughly 18 minutes, peak roughly 25 minutes.
