About Chestermere, AB

Discover what makes Chestermere such a great place to live and explore.

Chestermere, Alberta is a lakeside community just east of Calgary, known for its relaxed pace, open skies, and easy access to the city. Many people are drawn to the everyday ability to walk or bike near the water, grab a coffee, and still be close to big-city shopping and services. The neighbourhoods feel friendly and residential, with parks, pathways, and community spaces that make it simple to meet neighbours and settle in.

Living options range from condos and townhomes to detached houses, including properties with lake views or quick access to green space. Families appreciate nearby schools, recreation facilities, and the kind of streets where evening strolls and playground visits are part of the routine. For commuters, major routes connect you to Calgary and surrounding employment areas without a complicated drive, while local errands are supported by growing retail and dining choices close to home.
