The neighbourhood

Life in Allendale.

Allendale is a down-to-earth south-central neighbourhood whose appeal rests on where it sits: minutes from Whyte Avenue and the University of Alberta. The streets are quiet and functional rather than showy, and the location does the heavy lifting.

Daily life is genuinely central, with about ten minutes to the university and twelve to fifteen to downtown, plus quick access to 109 Street, Whitemud Drive via 106 Street and Calgary Trail for airport runs. Transit to the university and downtown is genuinely usable, and Whyte Avenue's restaurants, shops and farmers' market are a five-minute drive or an easy bike ride, with Rollie Miles Athletic Field on the neighbourhood's edge.

Housing is largely 1940s to 1960s originals and semi-bungalows, with ongoing infill and duplex development supported by the area's zoning. It suits first-time buyers, university families and investors who want a central, well-connected address and are comfortable in a neighbourhood actively in transition.

Video transcript

My buyers wanted a single-family home in Edmonton near the university. They expected premium prices. Allendale changed that. Strathcona School in boundary, lots from 4,000 to 6,000 square feet, 10 minutes to U of A. For families prioritizing university access, great schools, and value — Allendale delivers all three.
