Forest Heights is a mature, tree-lined inner-city neighbourhood in Calgary’s southeast quadrant, offering rolling hills and Rocky Mountain views. Its residential charm is characterized by a mix of single-family homes, duplexes, and a smattering of low-rise apartments, reflecting its development beginning in the late 1950s. The community features both owner-occupied houses and rental options, making it attractive to families, first-time buyers, and investors seeking diversity in housing stock and affordability.
This neighbourhood sees steady real estate activity, with a balanced mix of sales and rentals. Homes are commonly listed in a moderate price range, appealing to a broad buyer profile. The market reflects solid demand, especially from those seeking easy access to downtown (via Memorial Drive and 17 Ave SE/MAX Purple Bus Rapid Transit) and a community-oriented atmosphere. Buyers appreciate the mature tree canopy, recreational amenities, and proximity to International Avenue’s cultural and culinary offerings.
