Red Deer Neighbourhood Guide

Glendale, Red Deer

An established north Red Deer community encompassing Glendale and Glendale Park Estates, with mature residential streets, neighbourhood parks and convenient access to the G.H. Dawe Community Centre.

Red Deer Neighbourhoods  ›  Glendale

Glendale is one of Red Deer’s established north-side residential areas, made up of the adjoining neighbourhoods of Glendale and Glendale Park Estates.

The two neighbourhoods are separate official MLS® subdivisions, but from a homeowner and buyer perspective they make sense to consider together. Both developed largely during the same era, share similar housing styles and connect closely to the same schools, parks, shopping routes and recreation facilities.

Homes here tend to be more established and generally more attainable than many newer parts of Red Deer, while still offering detached housing, garages, mature yards and access to major routes such as Taylor Drive and 67 Street.

Glendale

Glendale includes established residential streets around the G.H. Dawe area and a housing mix that includes bi-levels, split-level homes, bungalows and two-storey properties.

Through August 2026, Glendale recorded 10 detached sales with a median sale price of approximately $332,500.

Glendale Park Estates

Glendale Park Estates extends north and west of the original Glendale neighbourhood and includes residential crescents, established yards and access to the Glendale Natural Area.

Through August 2026, Glendale Park Estates recorded 11 detached sales with a median sale price of approximately $365,000.

Why the distinction matters: the two areas are similar, but buyers may compare different homes depending on location, lot, condition, garage and renovation level. For pricing an individual property, I would still start with the most relevant sales from the same subdivision before widening the comparison.

Housing

What You'll Find in Glendale

Glendale is primarily an established 1980s-era housing market. Among detached homes sold through August 2026, the median year built was approximately 1981.

The median above-grade living area was approximately 1,102 sq. ft.

Bi-levels are especially common, along with two-storey homes, four-level splits and bungalows.

Because homes are now several decades old, condition can create a significant price spread even on nearby streets.

Buyers frequently compare updates such as windows, kitchens, bathrooms, roofing, mechanical systems and basement development, as well as garage size and lot location.

That makes recent comparable sales more useful than applying a single neighbourhood average to every property.

Parks & Recreation

Glendale sits beside one of north Red Deer’s major recreation destinations, the G.H. Dawe Community Centre.

The facility includes swimming, fitness facilities, gymnasium space, arenas and the G.H. Dawe branch of the Red Deer Public Library.

That concentration of recreation and community services is one of the practical advantages of living in this part of the city.

Residential streets connect easily to the broader northwest Red Deer trail, park and transportation network.
