Wildwood Calgary Community and Home Listings

Wildwood Calgary Community Infill HomeWildwood is an inner city community in southwest Calgary found approximately 5 kilometres west of the downtown area.

Most of its homes are post-war bungalows with some newer construction in between; however, many of these older properties have either been renovated or undergone complete redevelopment since they were built in the 1950’s.

Wildwood’s area has long been a preferred place to live because of its panoramic views of the Bow River Valley and Rocky Mountains. The area was settled long ago in the 1880’s and today remains a very desirable area to live not only because of its views, but because of the amenities and services found in very close proximity to the neighbourhood.

If you are thinking of purchasing a home in Wildwood Calgary, you’ll also want to check out Spruce Cliff and Westgate, two other inner city communities in the southwest with similar traits and buyer options.
