Seton is Brookfield Residential's mixed-use community at the south end of Deerfoot Trail, built around South Health Campus hospital. It is designed as a town centre for the south-east: retail, offices, a cinema, a large YMCA and higher-density housing are already in place, with residential streets of townhomes and single-family homes around them.
Because of the hospital and the retail employment base, Seton has stronger rental demand than most suburban communities, which makes it a frequent choice for investors and for buyers who want to walk to services. The trade-off is density: much of the housing is multi-family, and lots for detached homes are narrower than in the lake communities to the north.
Commute note: Approximate drive to downtown via Deerfoot Trail. Off-peak roughly 26 minutes, peak roughly 33 minutes.
