The market now known as Douglasdale was originally conceived in 1973 but it wasn’t until sometime later that real estate development began. The population of Douglasdale/Glen continues to grow thanks to the ongoing developments and the close proximity to some of Calgary’s most loved recreational activities and destinations.

The Douglasdale housing market is made up of mostly single-family detached homes. Although there are some townhouses available in the area, these are in the minority. Many of the Douglasdale homes for sale come with stunning views and all of them certainly come with the knowledge that this community is a safe one and that anything that is needed is only ever a short trip away.

The area where you will find Douglasdale real estate was not chosen at random, but rather specifically because of its stunning location and topographical features. The nearby Bow River, River Valley and Rocky Mountains are all visible from different parts of Douglasdale, and they provide the perfect backdrop for residents enjoying the comfort of their large, spacious Douglasdale/Glen homes.

Home buyers love the Douglasdale community because of the many amenities here. While the Deerfoot Trail offers quick and easy access to many other parts of the city, the Deer Valley Shopping Centre provides enough shops and services so that residents don’t need to travel far. Although golf is the big attraction in Douglasdale Estates, residents that aren’t keen on golfing can enjoy visiting the nearby Fish Creek Provincial Park and access all of its various recreational activities.

Douglasdale is a part of the Douglas Quarry Community Association, which also serves the neighboring communities of Douglasdale and Quarry Park with various programs and events for residents.
