Why Acadia Keeps Drawing Attention

Stretching across Calgary’s southeast, Acadia offers wide, tree-lined streets, quick LRT access at Heritage Station, and a solid mix of mid-century bungalows and updated split-levels. It’s a neighbourhood that lets families settle in—and investors lock down steady long-term value.

Fresh Numbers at a Glance

(Data covers the most recent 180-day period and the current inventory as of May 14, 2025. See the full market-report graphic above.)

Status # of Homes Avg. Price Avg. $/Sq Ft Avg. Days on Market
Active 16 $658,131 $620 23
Pending 3 $721,633 $626 24
Sold 13 $677,954 $641 22
Overall $672,137 $629

What This Means for Sellers

  • Properly priced, move-in-ready detached homes are clearing in just over three weeks.

  • Anything listed above the $650 K mark needs standout finishes to earn a fast sale.

  • Low inventory (16 active listings) keeps negotiating power tilted toward committed sellers.

What This Means for Buyers

  • The sold-to-active ratio still signals a competitive environment.

  • Focus on updated bungalows under $675 K—these draw the largest pool of buyers and rarely linger.

  • Pre-approval remains a must; homes that “check all the boxes” often see multiple offers within days.

In-Neighbourhood Trends We’re Watching

  1. Renovated Bi-Levels Surging: Two of three pending deals were extensively modernized bi-levels priced north of $700 K.

  2. Bungalow Flips Slowing: Investors are more cautious; cosmetic renos alone aren’t achieving the same resale premiums as in 2024.

  3. Garage Appeal: Nearly every quick sale this spring involved homes with an existing double garage or obvious potential for one—buyers still crave winter parking solutions.
