In The Neighbourhood of Copperfield, One Of The Best Calgary Communities

Nestled in Southeast Calgary is the prestigious community of Copperfield where the one-of-a-kind master planned Vesta-built neighbourhood of Copperstone resides. We may be biased, but we truly believe that the Copperfield neighbourhood is one of the best Calgary communities – and we aren’t the only ones! With its vast amount of housing options, sprawling pathways that connect the entire neighbourhood, numerous parks, ponds, and diverse schools, the lively Copperfield community has something to suit every lifestyle.

What’s It Like Living In One Of The Best Calgary Communities?

Ideally located North of Stoney Trail, those living in the Copperfield community have quick access to many of the incredible attractions that Calgary has to offer. The neighbourhood is known for its tight-knit community, friendly atmosphere, and appreciation for the outdoors. Being named one of the best Calgary communities by MoneySense’s 2018 consensus is a lot of pressure, but Copperfield holds to the test. Let’s break down what makes Copperfield worthy of being in the top 3 best Calgary communities, and why Copperstone is one of the best places to look for new homes in Calgary.

Parks, Parks, And More Parks

“The more greenspace the merrier” must’ve been the motto when Copperfield was initially designed back in 2002. No matter where you’re located in Copperfield, a stretch of green is no more than a few minutes walk away. Paved paths, numerous playgrounds, and maintained greenery make the parks easy to enjoy in Copperfield. Red Hipno Park, located in the Southwest corner of the neighbourhood, is one of these fantastic areas. A large play area, open fields, and trees for shade make this a great    place to spend the afternoon with your little ones or with a good book!

Not One, Not Two, But Three Luscious Ponds

Have you always dreamt of having a home on the water? With three generously sized ponds spread throughout Copperfield, you can do just that. Stillwater Pond, Wildflower Pond, and Copper Pond are three incredible scenes making Copperfield an incredible sight and a one-of-a-kind location for new homes in Calgary.

Wildflower Pond – Where It’s At

Wildflower Pond is the hub of Copperfield, located directly in the centre of the neighbourhood with amenities surrounding it from every corner. At this beautifully landscaped space, you can find tons of open space, two tennis courts, a playground with features for both younger and older kids, and a skatepark! In the winter, the pond is often times used as a skating rink, and a small hill right in the middle works great as a sledding hill for younger kids. Nestled among the attractions is the Copperfield-Mahogany Community Association building, for which we will talk more about their role in the community next!

The community of Copperstone is built directly adjacent Wildflower Pond, giving those who live there direct access to the incredible experiences Copperfield has to offer. Interested in living in this community? Check out our new Calgary homes available here!

The Copperfield-Mahogany Community Association

The Copperfield-Mahogany Community Association (CMCA) is an incredible organization of local residents dedicated to encouraging community spirit within the neighbourhood they live. In order to achieve their mission, they share events happening within the community, host workshops such as babysitting and home alone courses, and rent the building to be used as a community hall. Another initiative that the CMCA carries out is the Abundant Community Copperfield Mahogany program, which encourages positive connections between the residents of the community. The CMCA is an incredible group that embodies the friendly nature of Copperfield’s community!

Incredible Schools

Five schools reside directly within the Copperfield community, as well as two extracurricular programs. Copperfield School is located directly in the centre of the Copperfield community and caters to Kindergarten through Grade 4. Vesta recently donated $30,000 to help the school achieve their goal of building a new play area and sports field for next year. We love to support schools who value its surrounding community.

St. Isabella Elementary Junior High School is a Catholic school that supports students Kindergarten through Grade 9, and is another fantastic facility.

The Copperfield community also has two preschools; Copperfield Preschool and the Tiny Acorns Learning Centre, which are both great learning centres for little ones.
