West Springs

Established west-side community beside Aspen Landing with strong schools and infill product.

Profile

About West Springs

West Springs sits immediately north of Aspen Woods on the west side of Calgary, between 17 Avenue SW and Bow Trail. It was developed through the 2000s and is now a mature community with a mix of single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes.

It shares Aspen Landing and the west-side school cluster with Aspen Woods but generally sits below it on price, which has made it a common step for families who want the west-side schools and retail without estate pricing.

New construction is limited to infill on redeveloped lots and the occasional multi-family project. Like Aspen Woods, it is most useful here as the established west-side comparison for Alpine Park.

Commute note: Approximate drive to downtown Calgary via Bow Trail, or the Blue Line from 69 Street station. Off-peak roughly 17 minutes, peak roughly 24 minutes.

Highlights

  • Aspen Landing retail and the west-side school cluster within minutes.
  • Generally below Aspen Woods on price for a similar location.
  • Mature streetscapes with a mix of single-family, duplex and townhome product.
  • Quick Bow Trail and Stoney Trail access, and a short drive to 69 Street station.

Considerations

  • Little new construction; mostly resale and infill redevelopment.
  • West-side prices are above the city average.
  • No CTrain station inside the community.
  • Infill construction on neighbouring lots is common and brings noise and disruption.

What exists, what is planned and what could change

We separate an operating facility from funded construction, a developer announcement and a long-range plan. A sales map shows intended land uses; it does not guarantee a builder, tenant, school, road, opening date or uninterrupted view. Written information for the exact phase and lot takes priority over this profile.
