6 Reasons You’ll Love Living in Ardrossan
By Cantiro HomesArdrossan, located immediately east of Edmonton, is an exciting new place for families to call home. It is the quintessential small-town with some surprising amenities. Ardrossan has experienced impressive growth over the past several years with outstanding access to nature, recreation and more.
Here are our top reasons to live in Ardrossan:
As connected as you want to be
Ardrossan is connected to Edmonton via the Sherwood Park Freeway, the Yellowhead, and the Henday; which means that you will have almost instant access to all things Edmonton, including the downtown core, within 30 minutes.
But there are so many more amenities close by! Here are some of our favourites:
- Feel like going horseback riding? There are eleven different options within fifteen minutes of the city. Complete with daycamp options for kids and classes for the whole family.
- What if camping, hiking, paddleboarding, or kayaking is more your speed? Strathcona Wilderness Centre, Elk Island Park, Cooking Lake & Blackfoot Recreation Area are all very close by.
- North Cooking Lake is more loamy swamp land that is suitable for hunting while the clear deep waters of South Cooking Lake are where you’ll want to go for a swim.
- What if you prefer to spend your afternoons golfing? There are eight different courses within a twenty minute drive. That’s approximately 1,200 acres of manicured green just down the road from your dream home.
Whether you feel the call of the wild or the big city, Ardrossan is the place to call home.
Personal Space
In Ardrossan, you don’t have to choose between the things you want to do and the space to be yourself. Houses, and lots, are just bigger out here.
Sometimes life in the city is a bit of a squeeze. A shared wall with your neighbor, a tree that hangs over your fence, or a dog that just won’t stop barking in the middle of the night.
But what if that wasn’t the case?
Ardrossan offers you a place with access to all the amenities you’ve come to know and love from living in a dense metropolis – but without the claustrophobia.
All the Amenities you need
Ardrossan is a place where you can walk your kids to one of three different schools. It also boasts an ultramodern recreational facility central to the entire community. It offers a staggering number of indoor features, such as:

- Indoor running/walking track
- Team training rooms

But when the sun shines and the great outdoors beckon, where will you go then? ArrKann Park has got you covered with plenty of options like:
- Spray park
- Playground

- Walking trails

When you’re finished with your activities for the day, you can unwind with a bite to eat at Ardrossan Pizza & Bar which is a recent addition to the community. It is located just down the street from the veterinary clinic, so you have a place to attend to your creature comforts as well as your creature’s comfort.
A Natural Oasis
There is a beautiful little creek that winds its way through Ardrossan, and it is accompanied by many inviting walking paths. Mature trees feature prominently on almost every street corner. The countryside is just steps away.
