Profile
About Copperfield
Copperfield is an established community in south-east Calgary, east of 52 Street SE and north of Stoney Trail, developed through the 2000s. It sits between McKenzie Towne and New Brighton in both geography and character.
The community is organised around stormwater ponds and a pathway network, with a product mix that runs from apartment condos and townhomes through laned and front-drive singles. It has long been one of the more affordable established south-east options.
New construction is finished apart from occasional multi-family infill. Copperfield is useful to a new build buyer as a price and maturity comparison against Rangeview, Hotchkiss and the other newer south-east communities.
Commute note: Approximate drive to downtown Calgary via Deerfoot Trail or 52 Street SE. Off-peak roughly 24 minutes, peak roughly 30 minutes.
Highlights
- Ponds and a connected pathway network through the community.
- One of the more affordable established south-east communities.
- Broad product mix from apartment condos through front-drive singles.
- Quick Stoney Trail, Deerfoot Trail and 130 Avenue retail access.
Considerations
- No meaningful new construction; the market is resale and multi-family infill.
- Community association fee applies; confirm the current amount.
- Homes from the early phases need major component replacement.
- No CTrain station; the Green Line has no confirmed date for this area.
