The detached assessment picture in Renfrew

Renfrew’s matching records have a mean 2026 assessed value of $846,901, with recorded values from $416,000 to $2,830,000. These are assessment-roll figures, not completed-sale prices or available listings. A mean can be affected by a few unusual properties; the range does not describe the price range of homes currently for sale.

The extract contains 1,305 matched assessment records, rather than a sales sample or an independently deduplicated house count. The directory orders groups with at least 25 records by mean assessed value. That threshold is a coverage flag, not a statistical guarantee or a sold-price ranking.

Lot and construction records: investigate the Renfrew property

Mean recorded land area in this detached group is 475 m². Recorded construction years span 1906–2025. These community aggregates do not establish the dimensions, build date, condition or usable outdoor space of the home you are considering. Obtain the actual property records and measurements.

The year span for Renfrew includes different construction periods. Compare original construction with documented additions and renovations, and investigate roof, structure and mechanical condition for the specific detached house. A recorded construction year does not show whether a home has been maintained or updated.

Confirm Renfrew’s boundary and everyday routes

The map uses the City’s Renfrew community outline and Centre sector label. Select the candidate address in the official property and development tools to investigate land use and nearby applications. Confirm the route to the places you actually use; a community outline does not establish walking distance or travel time.

A matching City community profile is linked below for Renfrew. It provides 2021 Census background across the community, including other housing types. It is separate from the detached-only 2026 assessment extract and should not be read as a current detached-market report.

A closer look at Renfrew’s detached stock and setting

Choose the evidence the house needs

The largest recorded construction group is Before 1960: 1,003 of 1,305 valid-year records (76.9%). Start with this era when organizing your questions, then check the individual property’s records.

For an older original building, distinguish retained structure from later additions. Check documented foundation, roof, electrical and plumbing work, and measure above-grade space separately from developed basement space.

The mean assessment is 13.9% above the median. The middle half of recorded assessments runs from $668,500 to $878,000. This describes an unadjusted housing-stock distribution; it does not assign a location premium or value a candidate home. Recorded lots have a 488.3 m² median. Check usable dimensions, grading, easements and parking against the candidate property’s survey and documents.

Community edges to investigate

The City polygons share a boundary segment with Bridgeland/Riverside, Crescent Heights, Mayland Heights, Winston Heights/Mountview. Use the map to investigate a home near these edges; a shared polygon boundary does not establish a street connection, route or comparable-home relationship.

Named City park-site records

9 active named park-site polygons overlap the Renfrew outline by at least 100 m². The names below are City dataset labels, which can include school grounds and shared facilities.

The construction breakdown uses 1,305 records with valid recorded years. Land distributions use 1,305 positive recorded areas. The median is the midpoint; the middle 50% runs from the 25th to 75th percentile, using linear interpolation. It is not a confidence interval or a listing-price range.

Filter: 2026 roll, residential class RE, land-and-improvement type LI, sub-property uses R110 and R111 (detached and detached with backyard suite), positive assessed values. Counts are matched records, not an independently deduplicated house count. Other housing classifications and vacant-land types are excluded. Assessments can reflect a property’s stage of completion; especially in developing areas, verify completion and current property records before comparing values.

Plan a local visit

Plan your Renfrew visit

Use these separate stops to investigate your own routine. Choose your transport and check current operator details before visiting.

  1. Open the Renfrew outline and check the candidate address against the City property map.
  2. Travel from the actual detached home to the destinations relevant to your routine; record the route and entrance you would use.
  3. Inspect the home’s usable lot, parking, room proportions and documented renovation scope.
  4. Compare the Renfrew property with a second detached house of similar size, condition and lot use; keep area averages separate from the home comparison.

Compare the Renfrew home, then its competition

  • How does this Renfrew detached house differ from the 475 m² mean recorded lot area, and which differences matter to your intended use?
  • What do actual records establish about construction, improvements, measured living area and remaining work?
  • Which recent completed detached sales and current competing detached listings support the property-specific comparison?
  • What do the address and chosen program establish about school designation, and which operator documents establish any claimed amenity access?

Use these questions alongside current Calgary homes for sale; confirm which listings match your area and property requirements.

For nearby development applications and address-specific planning information, use the official Calgary development research tools.

For a detached sale in Renfrew, use property-specific completed detached sales and current competing detached listings. Explain the lot, measured living area, condition and documented improvements; the community assessment mean is background only. Review the relevant detached competition.

Questions about Renfrew

Is $846,901 a typical sold price for detached houses in Renfrew?

It is the arithmetic mean assessed value of 1,305 records matching the 2026 detached filter. It is not a median sale price, a sold-price benchmark or a valuation for a particular home.

Which homes are included in the Renfrew assessment figures?

The extract uses the 2026 roll, residential assessment class RE, land-and-improvement property type LI, sub-property uses R110 and R111 (detached and detached with backyard suite) and positive assessed values. Other housing classifications and vacant-land property types are excluded. These are matched records; completion and classification still require property-specific verification.

Why compare Renfrew with these other communities?

Inglewood, Capitol Hill, Ramsay are research alternatives in the same City sector with relatively close mean detached assessed values. This selection does not claim that they are adjacent or that individual houses are comparable. Check the actual home, location and relevant sales evidence.
