The pealing laughter of children resonated through the sunny Saturday when Qualico Communities held the Grand Opening of Ambleridge, its latest development in the northwest that is ushering a new sense of family-friendly design and attainable lifestyle.

The event held on June 6 was not just a celebration of Qualico’s third community in this ever-evolving area of the northwest but also served as part of their 75th anniversary commemoration this year.

This wholesome family-oriented event marked an exciting milestone for the community, as all 12 showhomes officially opened to the public and all seven builders proudly showcased their stunning showhomes and the breadth of housing choices available in Ambleridge.

“The strong turnout and positive response from visitors demonstrated the excitement surrounding Ambleridge,” says Monica Bilyk, Manager of Marketing and Communications with Qualico Communities Calgary.

Ambleridge’s growth

Ambleridge has seen steady progress and strong interest since presales launched in 2025. The community continues to attract buyers looking for a Northwest Calgary lifestyle that balances natural beauty with everyday convenience and connectivity.

Momentum has continued to build since the community launched, with many builders opening their sales centres early, first homeowner possessions already taking place, and all the dozen showhomes are officially open.

“Ambleridge has been thoughtfully designed with the modern family in mind. From multi-use pathways and playgrounds to nearby schools and sports fields, everything is planned to support connection, activity, and convenience. It’s more than just a neighbourhood, it’s a lifestyle set against the beauty of West Nose Creek Valley,” says Rishika Dave, Communications Specialist for Qualico Communities.

“Community amenities are also beginning to take shape,” she adds. “The Phase 1 dog park, storm pond, surrounding green spaces, and pathway network are expected to open later this year, providing residents with additional opportunities to connect with nature and enjoy the outdoors close to home.”

Winning in the northwest

Ambleridge is Qualico’s third community in this corner of the northwest – dubbed “Calgary’s Golden Corridor” for its wealth of amenities and new home options. It follows the developments of Ambleton and Evanston, and like those well-established communities, Ambleridge offers a diverse range of home types.

“While Ambleridge and Ambleton are neighbouring communities that share a commitment to thoughtful planning and quality living, Ambleridge has its own distinct identity,” Dave says.

The first five phases of Ambleridge span approximately 160 acres and are centred around the natural beauty of West Nose Creek Valley. The community offers scenic ridge views, a variety of housing options, interconnected pathways, and parks, while placing a strong emphasis on being connected to everyday amenities. Ambleridge is designed to appeal to a wide range of buyers, from first-time homeowners to growing and multi-generational families.

The whole northwest is teeming with growth potential and is quickly becoming one of Calgary’s most sought-after residential sectors. And while Evanston is built-out and Ambleton is approaching its conclusion, Ambleridge offers ample opportunities to still enjoy the enviable northwest lifestyle.

“Northwest Calgary continues to experience significant growth, and we’re excited to be part of that evolution,” Dave says. “Communities such as Evanston and Ambleton have helped establish the area as a desirable place to live, with access to schools, shopping, recreation, and transportation routes.”

She adds that the recently approved high school site in Ambleton is another example of the long-term investment occurring in the area. “As more amenities, services, and infrastructure continue to come online, we expect residents throughout Northwest Calgary to benefit from an increasingly connected and complete lifestyle.”

Showhomes That Inspire

Ambleridge features showhomes from Broadview Homes, Douglas Homes, Jayman BUILT, Shane Homes, Sterling Homes, and Trico Homes. Together, these builders offer a diverse mix of laned townhomes, duplexes, laned homes, and front-garage homes. Additional 3-4 bedroom townhome opportunities from StreetSide Developments are also coming soon.

“Many of the homes feature sought-after amenities such as spice kitchens, third-floor lofts, open-to-below great rooms, dedicated home office spaces, expansive bonus rooms, and thoughtfully designed indoor-outdoor living areas,” Dave says. “Together, the showhomes demonstrate the diversity of housing opportunities available within Ambleridge and how the community can accommodate a wide range of lifestyles, budgets, and family needs.”

Current offerings include townhomes from the high $400s, laned duplexes from the low $500s, laned homes from the low $500s, and front-garage homes from the low $700s.

Designed for Connection

Ambleridge has been carefully planned to balance urban convenience with access to the outdoors. “The Grand Opening gave families an opportunity to experience the community firsthand, tour the unique showhomes, and discover how Ambleridge combines natural beauty, convenience, and a variety of housing options in one connected Northwest Calgary location,” says Bilyk.

Future residents will enjoy scenic ridge views, interconnected pathways, parks, playgrounds (including a dog park), a future school site and thoughtfully designed open spaces, all while remaining close to established schools, shopping, dining, recreation, and major transportation routes.

Qualico Communities invites prospective homebuyers to visit the newly opened showhomes and discover firsthand what makes Ambleridge one of Northwest Calgary’s most exciting new communities.
