Collingwood

Collingwood is small — 1.6 square kilometres, a little over two thousand people — and it has a park on two of its four sides. Nose Hill Park is north across John Laurie Boulevard. Confederation Park runs along the south, 162 hectares of it, cut through the middle by a stream, with tobogganing hills, tennis courts, ball diamonds and groomed cross-country trails through the winter. The city’s nine-hole golf course and its double-decker driving range are part of it, and the course address is 3204 Collingwood Drive. Every December the Lions Festival of Lights runs through the park until midnight, and from most of Collingwood you can walk to it.

Three schools sit inside the community — Collingwood School on Collingwood Drive, St. Margaret School on Carol Drive, and St. Francis High School on Northmount Drive. The Triwood Community Association hall, arena and outdoor rinks are a few minutes north, on Chicoutimi Drive in Charleswood.

Nine homes in ten here predate the eighties: 45% built before 1961 and another 46% between 1961 and 1980. 76% are detached, around 700 of them, and three-quarters of households own where they live. There is no apartment stock, which is why the Calgary Real Estate Board publishes no condominium figures for Collingwood at all.

91% of residents were at the same address a year ago, and that is the number that shapes this market more than any price does. Three detached homes sold in Collingwood in September 2026. When a community is this small and this settled, a handful of sales is the entire month — so a typical price is worth more than an average here, because a single unusual sale moves an average and leaves the typical one alone. If you want a house in Collingwood, waiting is most of the work, and it helps to have someone watching for the one that fits rather than checking a website on a Sunday night.
