About Fireside
Fireside was designed around young families and it shows. Fireside School covers kindergarten through grade 8 and Holy Spirit serves the Catholic side, both inside the community, alongside a lot of park space.
The commercial corner at the entrance handles groceries, coffee, gas and a pharmacy without leaving the postal code, plus medical, dental and retail. Fireside Central Park has timber gateposts, playgrounds and an outdoor rink on Fireside Parkway.
Housing runs from attainable laned starters through front-garage two-storeys to townhomes. It sits on Cochrane's southwest corner — quieter, but minutes from downtown.
For a Calgary buyer
How it compares if you are coming from the city
This is the most direct like-for-like against a new Calgary community: schools inside the boundary, commercial at the entrance, new stock at the attainable end. The comparison comes down to price per square foot and what the drive costs you.
For a family, the walkable-school piece is the part worth weighing hardest. It is the thing most new Calgary communities promise and deliver years later.
