Why Families Crave the Ottewell Experience
With its untroubled avenues, clean yards and quiet parks, Ottewell has obvious appeal, but these aren't the only characteristics that make it especially attractive to families. This neighbourhood bears more than a century of history and a strong sense of community that make it truly distinct, and the gentle pace of local life is a primary consideration for those seeking property in Edmonton.
Decades of Development
Ottewell's origins date back to the 1880s when settlers of the same name made a big leap by moving to this side of the river. Today, the borough isn't nearly as wild or off the beaten path, but it's still natural. Even the larger roads feature well-established trees, and there are numerous parks in the local vicinity.
A construction boom in the 1950s and 1960s saw the creation of the majority of these residences. Although they underwent continued improvement in the years to follow, most streets still bear a comfortable, one-level, single-family aesthetic periodically punctuated by custom builds and duplexes. In short, this is an ideal place to find a new home without sinking into permanent debt, and with six schools in the community, it's no wonder that so many families move here.

An Orderly Neighbourhood Layout
Some communities force people to travel great distances to shop or experience the lifestyles they love. In Ottewell, the Edmonton city planners simply used existing borders to offer access without encroaching. At the northeastern corner of the borough, for instance, Capilano Mall offers a variety of shopping opportunities and serves as a handy connection point to 50 Street NW.
