Overview
Pineridge sits on the north side of 16 Avenue NE, which is the Trans-Canada Highway along this stretch, with Marlborough Park across it. Rundle is west over 52 Street NE, Temple is north over 32 Avenue NE and Monterey Park is east over 68 Street NE. All of Pineridge is in Ward 10, and every address ends in NE.
Many of the side streets take a Pine name, among them Pinewind, Pinecliff, Pinehill and Pinestream. The houses went up fast, mostly between 1974 and 1979, and a smaller round of condominium buildings came in the early 2000s.
In the twelve months to August 2026, 60 of the 106 sales (56.6%) were detached houses, at a typical $538,500. The other sales were semi-detached homes, townhouses and apartments, and across all 106 the typical price came to $460,250.
Village Square, the area’s civic block, sits on 56 Street NE with a leisure centre, two arenas and a library. Five public and Catholic schools, the community association’s hall and an off-leash area are also inside Pineridge, though there is no supermarket or CTrain station.
David’s take
The vibe
Village Square on 56 Street
Village Square sits inside Pineridge at 2623 56 St NE. One address holds the Village Square Leisure Centre and its pool, the Village Square and Wally Kozak arenas, the Village Square Library and a public health clinic.
For a Pineridge household, the pool, the rinks and the library are all reached without crossing one of the four edge roads.
The hall on Rundlehorn Drive
The Pineridge Community Association runs the Pineridge Community Centre at 6024 Rundlehorn Drive NE. The hall rents out for events, and the association lists tennis courts and an outdoor rink among its facilities. The association serves Pineridge alone.
Membership is optional, bought on a form, and it runs a year from the month you join. The association prices it at $20 for a family, $15 for an individual and $5 for a senior. Members and their guests can use the Pines Social Room, which has darts and pool tables, and a membership carries a vote at the annual general meeting.
Fields, pathways and the off-leash area
The grounds around Lester B. Pearson High School and the shared site behind Clarence Sansom, Douglas Harkness and St. Patrick hold soccer fields and ball diamonds. A cricket pitch sits in another park, and nine parks have playgrounds.
The City runs one off-leash area inside, the Pineridge off-leash area on Pinecrest Way NE, about 2.8 hectares in the south beside 16 Avenue. Its fence is partial chain link along the highway side, so it is not closed in all the way round. Paved pathways run through parts of the community, and many streets have a back lane.
The ground is flat prairie, a little higher in the north-west by the high school than in the south-east. There is no pond, creek or ravine inside.
Built in the mid-1970s
Nearly all of Pineridge was annexed by the City in 1961, and the build-out began in 1974, the year the Federation of Calgary Communities gives for the community’s founding. The City counted 82 residents that year, 4,095 in 1976 and 9,588 in 1980. The count peaked at 10,501 in 1991.
The 2021 census put 9,850 people in 3,735 households, which works out to 2.6 people a household, the same as Calgary’s. Households of five or more were 14% (Calgary: 10%).
In the five years to 2021, 35% of residents had moved, against 42% across Calgary.
Shops on the edges
The shopping sits on the outer roads and on Rundlehorn Drive. The block on 52 Street NE around 26 Avenue had a Shoppers Drug Mart, a Dollarama, a gym, a liquor store, a small grocer, a Tim Hortons and a McDonald’s as of October 2026. Strips on Rundlehorn Drive NE held another pharmacy, small grocers and butchers, a gas station and take-out, and smaller corners on 60 Street, 26 Avenue and 68 Street NE had convenience stores and fuel.
There is no supermarket in Pineridge. The Calgary Co-op is across 68 Street NE in Monterey Park, and the No Frills is in Temple, on Temple Drive NE.
Housing stock
On the City’s 2026 assessments, Pineridge has 1,741 detached houses, 494 half-duplexes on titles of their own, 474 condominium townhouse units in 16 plans, 92 freehold townhouses and 240 condominium apartment units in three buildings. Rental apartment and townhouse buildings and a seniors’ residence on Pinestream Place NE add to that.
The 2021 census counted 45% of occupied homes here as single-detached (Calgary: 55%) and 16% as semi-detached, against 6% across the city. Row houses were 15% (Calgary: 10%), and low-rise apartments 19%, where Calgary’s share was 16%.
A typical detached lot here is about 5,400 square feet, and nearly all the houses date from 1974 to 1979. The half-duplexes went up over the same years and into the 1980s, on lots of about 3,200 square feet per half. The census dates 72% of occupied homes to the years 1961 to 1980, a period that holds 26% of Calgary’s. If a suite or a garage is in your plans, find the lot on the City’s land-use map before you count on either.
How the townhouses are held
A condominium townhouse pays a monthly condo fee, and a freehold one does not. Most of the condominium units are in complexes from 1975 to 1978, on Pinemont Road NE, 56 Street NE, 23 Avenue NE, Pinestream Place NE and 60 Street NE, and a later set of small plans on Pinecliff Grove NE followed from 2001 to 2003. Among townhouse sales in the twelve months to August 2026, a typical condo fee ran $414 a month where one applied.
The freehold townhouses sit on lots of their own, with no corporation over them. The older rows are on Pineset Place NE, 56 Street NE, Pinehill Road NE and Rundlehorn Drive NE, built in 1975 and 1976, and a row of four-plexes on 25 Avenue NE added 24 more between 2015 and 2017. Each half-duplex is also on a title of its own.
From the street, a condo row and a freehold row can look the same, and listings don’t always say which is which, but the title does. Ask for the title early and have it read before your conditions come off.
Condo or freehold, Pineridge has no residents association or homeowners association fee. Its property tax bills carry no special tax either. The post on Calgary homeowners association fees explains how a condo fee differs from the other charges buyers run into.
The three condominium apartment buildings went up in 2001 and 2002, on Pinecliff Grove NE, 66 Street NE and 25 Avenue NE.
| Type | Median sale price | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| Detached | $520,000 | 35 |
| Semi-detached | $390,000 | 19 |
| Row / townhouse | $259,250 | 12 |
| Apartment | $192,500 | 7 |
| All home types | $418,000 | 73 |
Recent sales
Over the twelve months to August 2026, the 60 detached houses sold at a typical $538,500, from $380,000 to $668,000. A typical one was built in 1975, and half sold within 24 days.
The 21 semi-detached homes went for a typical $400,000, between $247,000 and $530,000, and half sold within 28 days. The 17 townhouses sold at a typical $277,000, from $225,000 to $387,000. Townhouses took longer: half sold within 48 days, where half the houses sold within 24. Seven apartments and one other home also sold.
All 106 sales together had a typical price of $460,250, and the middle half sold between $355,000 and $549,000. The typical seller got 97.30% of the asking price, and half the homes sold within 27 days.
The whole range ran from $145,000 to $836,000. Both its lowest and its highest sale came from kinds of home that sold too seldom here to put a price on, so for a house the useful span is the detached one, $380,000 to $668,000. The average of all 106 sales, $448,279, is $11,971 short of the typical price. The gap comes from the mix of homes that sold: beside the 60 houses were 21 semi-detached homes at a typical $400,000, 17 townhouses at $277,000 and seven apartments, and the cheaper end of that mix pulls the average down further than it moves the middle sale.
South of 16 Avenue, Marlborough Park’s detached houses reached a typical $565,000 in the twelve months to August 2026, against $538,500 in Pineridge. Half the Marlborough Park houses sold within 20 days, and half of Pineridge’s within 24. Its townhouses had a typical price of $287,500, and Pineridge’s $277,000.

Getting around
Rundlehorn Drive NE is the main through street, looping in from 52 Street NE on the west and out to 32 Avenue NE on the north. 56 Street NE, 26 Avenue NE and 28 Avenue NE are the other through streets. The 16 Avenue interchanges at 52 Street and 68 Street sit at the two south corners.
Transit is by bus. Routes 34 Pineridge and 48 Rundle start and end at Rundle Station and loop through the community on Rundlehorn Drive, 26 and 28 Avenue and the streets between, all week. Rundle Station is outside Pineridge, west in Sunridge, and there is no CTrain station inside. Route 23 52 St E stops on the Pineridge side of 52 Street NE northbound, and Route 68 68 St E on the Pineridge side of 68 Street NE southbound, both all week.

Schools
All four public schools Pineridge is designated to are inside the community, and so is its Catholic elementary. CBE splits the community at kindergarten to grade 6, and CSSD does not split it at all.
As CBE publishes it in October 2026, the north of Pineridge is designated to Douglas Harkness School, 6203 24 Ave NE, and the south to Pineridge School, 1927 61 St NE, from kindergarten to grade 6. The line follows 24 Avenue east of Rundlehorn Drive, then Rundlehorn Drive, 59 Street and 22 Avenue, and turns up 56 Street. Homes on 24 Avenue, Rundlehorn Drive, 22 Avenue and 56 Street NE can fall on either side, and Pinehill Road NE sits on the line, so on any of those streets check the house with CBE.
From grade 7 the split ends. Every address goes to Clarence Sansom School, 5840 24 Ave NE, for grades 7 to 9, and to Lester B. Pearson High School, 3020 52 St NE, for grades 10 to 12. Both are inside Pineridge. Lester B. Pearson’s IB Diploma and IB Career programmes are choice programmes, applied for separately from the designation.
On the Catholic side, as CSSD publishes it in October 2026, every Pineridge address starts at St. Patrick School, 6006 Rundlehorn Drive NE, inside the community, for kindergarten to grade 6. The designated junior high is St. Martha School, 6020 4 Avenue NE, across 16 Avenue in Marlborough Park, and grades 10 to 12 are at Father Lacombe High School, 3615 Radcliffe Drive SE, in Albert Park/Radisson Heights. Father Lacombe is still Pineridge’s school on CSSD’s 2027-2028 high school boundaries.
CSSD’s enrolment information for 2026-27 names Pineridge among the communities whose new junior high students are redirected from St. Martha to Holy Cross School, 3719 26 Avenue SE in Dover, and it asks families to call the schools first. That notice covers the 2026-27 year.
Designations change over time, and both boards’ finders answer for a single street address. For how attendance areas and choice programmes work across Calgary, see the schools resource.

Frequently asked questions
What do homes sell for in Pineridge?
Over the twelve months to August 2026, the 60 detached houses sold at a typical $538,500, from $380,000 to $668,000. The 21 semi-detached homes went for a typical $400,000, between $247,000 and $530,000. The 17 townhouses sold at a typical $277,000, from $225,000 to $387,000, and those paying a condo fee typically paid $414 a month. Seven apartments and one other home sold too. All 106 sales together had a typical price of $460,250, with the middle half between $355,000 and $549,000. A home valuation is the way to price one particular house.
How can I tell if a Pineridge townhouse has a condo fee?
Read its title, because the townhouses here are held two ways. Most are units in one of the community’s condominium plans, and those carry a monthly condo fee to their corporation. Among townhouse sales in the twelve months to August 2026, that fee typically ran $414. Others are freehold, each on a lot of its own with no corporation over it. A listing can describe both the same way, but the title shows which. Ask for the title early and have it read before your conditions come off.
Do Pineridge homes pay a homeowners association fee?
No. Pineridge has no residents association or homeowners association fee, and its homes carry no City special tax. The Pineridge Community Association, which runs the hall on Rundlehorn Drive NE, sells memberships for $20 a year per family, $15 per individual and $5 per senior, and nobody has to join. A condominium townhouse or apartment pays its own monthly condo fee, which is a different charge.
Where do Pineridge children go to school?
On the public side, entirely inside Pineridge. As CBE publishes it in October 2026, the north of the community goes to Douglas Harkness School and the south to Pineridge School for kindergarten to grade 6, then the whole community moves on together, to Clarence Sansom School for junior high and Lester B. Pearson High School from grade 10, all four inside Pineridge. Homes on 24 Avenue, Rundlehorn Drive, 22 Avenue, 56 Street or Pinehill Road NE should confirm the elementary with CBE. As CSSD publishes it in October 2026, St. Patrick School inside Pineridge covers kindergarten to grade 6, junior high is at St. Martha School across 16 Avenue in Marlborough Park, and high school is Father Lacombe High School in Albert Park/Radisson Heights. In the 2026-27 school year, CSSD redirects new junior high students from St. Martha’s area to Holy Cross School in Dover.
What is at Village Square in Pineridge?
Village Square, on 56 Street NE inside Pineridge, has the City’s leisure centre with its pool, the Village Square and Wally Kozak arenas, the Village Square Library and a public health clinic, all at one address. Shops along 52 Street NE, at the community’s west side, included a pharmacy, a dollar store and fast food as of October 2026.
Where do people in Pineridge buy groceries?
Just outside the community. There is no supermarket in Pineridge. The nearest big stores are the Calgary Co-op across 68 Street NE in Monterey Park and the No Frills on Temple Drive NE in Temple. Inside Pineridge, the shops on 52 Street NE and on Rundlehorn Drive NE included a few small grocers and butchers, a pharmacy and convenience stores as of October 2026.
Is there a CTrain station in Pineridge?
No. The closest is Rundle Station, which sits west of the community in Sunridge. Routes 34 Pineridge and 48 Rundle both start and end there and loop through Pineridge seven days a week. Route 23 stops on the Pineridge side of 52 Street NE northbound, and Route 68 on the Pineridge side of 68 Street NE southbound.
How old are the homes in Pineridge?
Most went up between 1974 and 1979. The City counted 82 residents in 1974 and 9,588 by 1980, and the typical home sold in the twelve months to August 2026 was a 1976 build. A later round added the three condominium apartment buildings and a set of townhouses from 2001 to 2003, and a row of freehold townhouses on 25 Avenue NE followed between 2015 and 2017.
