Calgary Community highlight: Renfrew

Tue, 14 Feb by kchapman@shaw.ca

Renfrew is a great choice to live when you consider purchasing a home in Calgary. This is one of Calgary’s most sought after communities due to its proximity to the downtown, its strong community relations, and its beauty and character. The boundaries for Renfrew are located east of 6th Street between 8th Ave and 16th Avenue NE. Some of the main advantages of living in Renfrew are: ability to walk to the downtown, direct access to main travel roads (Deerfoot trail, 16 Ave, and Memorial Drive), community recreation (soccer pitches, indoor pool, indoor ice arena, and community parks), many shops and nearby restaurants, not to mention its character and charm. The streets of Renfrew are full of mature trees and character homes. Because this area was developed in the 1940’s, it offers a lot of the old charm and character of Calgary. Specific streets will offer breathtaking views of Calgary’s downtown, but remain distant enough to appreciate and enjoy the tranquility of a small-town community feel.
