Heritage Pointe sits in Foothills County directly south of Calgary, close enough to the city edge that the drive to south Calgary employment areas is shorter than from parts of the city itself. It is built around the Heritage Pointe Golf Club, with residential enclaves arranged around the course and its ponds.
The community includes the Artesia enclave, which brought a more contemporary architectural programme and villa and estate product aimed at buyers who wanted a lower-maintenance home without giving up the setting. Across the community the product is estate, villa and semi-custom rather than volume suburban.
The appeal is proximity with separation: county setting, golf-course frontage and larger lots, a few minutes from Calgary services. The trade is that county tax, servicing and school arrangements apply, and the price point is well above the Calgary average.
Commute note: Approximate drive to downtown Calgary via Deerfoot Trail or Macleod Trail. South Calgary employment areas are much closer. Off-peak roughly 22 minutes, peak roughly 30 minutes.
