Where Brentwood Sits — The Neighbourhood at a Glance
Brentwood is bordered by Crowchild Trail (south), Brisebois Drive (north), 32 Avenue NW (west), and 19 Street NW (east). Built 1960-1975 as one of Calgary's original UofC-adjacent communities. Fully developed; active R-CG (row + multi-unit) infill activity through 2026-2030.
Long-tenure owner-occupiers hold much of the original stock, and UofC and Foothills Hospital are within walking commute distance. Strong investor presence due to UofC rental demand.

Why Buyers Choose Brentwood
- Brentwood LRT 5-10 min walk — direct downtown access, 18 min ride.
- UofC + Foothills Hospital adjacent — major employment + research cluster, walking commute distance.
- Market Mall + Brentwood Village retail = T&T Supermarket, restaurants, banks, full daily needs.
- R-CG zoning + active infill — strong investor + renovator exit-strategy. Bungalow → duplex math works.
- Strong rental yield from UofC student + hospital staff demand.
- Established 1960s-1980s stock with mature trees + finished landscaping.
What to Watch For (The Honest Trade-Offs)
- Pre-1975 builds: asbestos in attic insulation + knob-and-tube wiring remnants common. Always inspect.
- 1980s poly-B plumbing on later phases.
- Active infill construction reshapes streetscapes through 2026-2027. Walk on a weekday morning.
- UofC rental noise: some streets have heavy student-tenant turnover. Check rental ratio + parking density.
- LRT pass-by noise on streets within 200m of the tracks.
