Who fits here
Twinhills is one of a handful of Calgary neighbourhoods that has been designated but is still in early development — meaning the buyers who thrive here are the ones who see opportunity in a blank slate. If you want to buy into a southeast Calgary community before it reaches full build-out, Twinhills puts you in a strong position. The area sits in Calgary''s east sector near 17 Avenue SE, adjacent to the developing communities of Belvedere and Huxley, with the East Hills Shopping Centre already anchoring retail services nearby. That said, set expectations honestly: community infrastructure such as schools and local parks will be phased in over years, not months. Current designated schools for the broader area include Abbeydale School (K-6), Dr. Gladys M. Egbert School (junior high), and Forest Lawn High School — all existing CBE institutions in neighbouring communities. Buyers who fit Twinhills best are patient, value-oriented, and willing to trade walkability today for appreciation potential tomorrow. First-time buyers comfortable with a car-dependent lifestyle while the area matures, and investors looking at SE Calgary''s growth trajectory, are the most natural fit.
