Chestermere Real Estate
Chestermere is a city on Calgary's eastern boundary, reached by 17 Avenue SE or the Trans-Canada Highway. It became a city in 2015, and the 2021 census counted 22,163 residents.
The city is built around Chestermere Lake, which started as an irrigation reservoir in the early 1900s. Today it's used for boating, waterskiing, wakeboarding and fishing, and it's home to the Calgary Yacht Club.
You'll find lakefront homes, homes with lake access and newer subdivisions away from the water. Kids attend Rocky View Schools or Calgary Catholic schools, and university and college are in Calgary.
Thomas's Take
In Chestermere, lakefront, lake access and off-lake homes are three different markets. Make sure the listing matches what the title actually gives you, especially if a dock or lake access is part of the price.
Live MLS® listings below. Listing details can change, so verify anything important before you buy.
No. Chestermere is its own city with its own taxes and services, right on Calgary's eastern boundary.
It shares a boundary with Calgary. Your drive depends on where you work, so time it at rush hour before you buy.
Yes. The lake is used for boating, waterskiing, wakeboarding and fishing in summer.
