Renfrew is situated just north of Bridgeland and is a northeast community with a very favourable inner-city location. Downtown is just a short distance down Edmonton Trail, and nearby 16 Avenue North and Deerfoot Trail provide easy access to every other part of Calgary.
Renfrew was established in 1950, and in some parts of the community, new infills are replacing older homes, giving the area a fresh look and considerably enhancing its reputation as an excellent choice for those homebuyers looking for new homes in the heart of the city. Renfrew is currently very affordable compared to other inner-city neighbourhoods where infills have become very popular. Still, property values are expected to increase, making Renfrew a desirable option very close to the downtown core.
