What types of homes will be built in Hazlett Lake?

The neighbourhood plan emphasizes ''missing middle'' ground-oriented housing alongside traditional single-family lots. Planned types include accessory suites, multiplexes, row homes, stacked townhouses, low-rise apartments, and single-family detached homes — designed to offer entry points at a range of price points.

What schools will serve Hazlett Lake residents?

The Hazlett Lake Neighbourhood Area Structure Plan designates multiple school sites within the community. Red Deer is served by Red Deer Public Schools (16 elementary, 7 middle, 3 high schools), Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools, and Red Deer Polytechnic for post-secondary. Specific school openings will follow residential build-out timelines.

Can residents access Hazlett Lake itself?

Yes — the lake shoreline is protected under Alberta''s ''Stepping Back from the Water'' environmental guidelines as dedicated open space. The neighbourhood plan integrates a Municipal Park and year-round trail system along the lake, connecting to Red Deer''s wider Waskasoo Park regional trail network. Residential development does not front directly onto the water body.

What is the median sold price in Hazlett Lake right now?

Hazlett Lake is a pre-construction community with very limited resale history. The best current reference point is the broader Red Deer market: the median sold price is and the average. As the neighbourhood transitions to active resale, these figures will evolve to reflect Hazlett Lake''s lake-area premium.

Buying in Hazlett Lake

Who fits here

Hazlett Lake is built for buyers who want to get into Red Deer''s newest master-planned community before prices climb. As the first development north of the Red Deer River since Johnstone Park broke ground in 2003, this 350-acre NW community is being shaped around a natural lake — the only residential neighbourhood in the city wrapped around a sizable water body. That distinction matters: the Hazlett Lake area structure plan reserves the lake shoreline as environmentally protected open space, giving future residents permanent access to a trail-connected natural park rather than infill that edges it out over time. The buyer mix skews toward families and first-move-up households. NADG''s development program emphasizes "missing middle" ground-oriented housing — accessory suites, multiplexes, row homes, stacked towns, and low-rise apartments alongside single-family lots — which means entry points across a wide range of budgets. Infrastructure is tracking toward 2028 underground servicing, with first occupancy projected 2029–2030. Early lot buyers are acquiring at pre-infrastructure pricing, making this a community where timing has tangible value. Proximity to the QE II–Highway 11A interchange puts downtown Red Deer about 10–15 minutes south and keeps both Edmonton and Calgary within roughly 1.5 hours via the province''s busiest freeway corridor.

Current market in the neighbourhood

Hazlett Lake is an emerging pre-construction community, so resale transaction volume is limited. Current Red Deer-wide benchmarks give buyers useful context: the median sold price across Red Deer sits, with an average and an average of days on market. The sale-to-list ratio runs, reflecting competitive conditions in move-in-ready inventory. Active listings across the city average with an average price per square foot. Price range for homes currently trading in comparable NW Red Deer neighbourhoods runs from. As Hazlett Lake transitions from pre-construction to active resale over the next several years, these city-wide figures establish the baseline from which its lake-oriented premium is expected to build.

Commute and lifestyle

Hazlett Lake sits at the intersection of the QE II Highway and Highway 11A — Red Deer''s two primary arterials — giving residents one of the most direct access points in the city. The QE II (Highway 2) is the main Calgary–Edmonton corridor: Calgary is roughly 145 km south and Edmonton about 150 km north, each reachable in approximately 1.5 hours under normal highway conditions. Locally, the Highway 11A corridor feeds directly into Red Deer''s north end road network, putting Gaetz Avenue retail and downtown employment within a 10–15 minute drive. Red Deer Polytechnic, the city''s primary post-secondary institution offering 75-plus certificate and degree programs, is on the south side of the city and reachable without touching a highway. Waskasoo Park''s 80-plus kilometres of multi-use trails encircle much of the city; the Hazlett Lake neighbourhood plan integrates regional trail connections that will link directly into that system. The lake itself is protected natural habitat year-round — residents will have trailhead access to the shoreline, not just views of it. The planned neighbourhood commercial node (a C2B District Shopping Centre site in the southeast corner) will eventually bring food, medical, and retail services on-site, reducing everyday trip distances once the community matures.

Long-term context

Red Deer achieved census metropolitan area status in 2021, a threshold that signals regional economic density and typically correlates with sustained housing demand. The city''s employment base spans health care, oil and gas, construction, retail, and education — a diversified mix that has historically dampened the single-commodity volatility that affects smaller Alberta centres. Hazlett Lake specifically sits in the North of Highway 11A Major Area Structure Plan — a precinct that hasn''t seen new residential development since Johnstone Park''s build-out over two decades ago. Supply scarcity in the city''s north end has been a structural feature, not a temporary one. The 2018 NASP approval and the province''s concurrent QE II widening project (with fill material being repurposed for Hazlett Lake site grading) reflect coordinated public investment that typically precedes value lift in a new corridor. Buyers entering at pre-servicing stage — with underground infrastructure targeted for 2028 and first closings projected 2029–2030 — are positioned ahead of the demand surge that follows completed schools, commercial services, and a fully operational trail network.
