Is There a 1,900 Sq Ft Home in Airdrie Under $420,000?

Yes. 162 Chinook Gate Blvd SW in Airdrie is a 2021-built home with 1,880 total developed square feet, a private backyard, 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and air conditioning — listed at $415,000.

By Brad Walker | August 6, 2026

Finding square footage in Airdrie's low $400s is getting harder. But this one checks a lot of boxes.

162 Chinook Gate Blvd SW is a 2021-built home in SW Airdrie's Chinook Gate community, listed at $415,000. Here's what you're getting for that price:

  • 1,880 total developed sq ft — 1,324 above grade with 554 finished in the basement

  • 3 bedrooms

  • 3 full bathrooms — not a half bath tucked in a corner, three full bathrooms

  • Private backyard — actual yard, not shared greenspace

  • Air conditioning — already installed

  • Gas stove

  • 2 parking stalls

  • Built 2021 — newer build means lower maintenance costs for the foreseeable future

For context: when buyers are looking in the low $400s in Airdrie right now, they're often choosing between townhomes with no yard, older detached homes that need updating, or properties without A/C. This one sidesteps most of those tradeoffs.

About the Chinook Gate Neighbourhood

Chinook Gate is a newer community in SW Airdrie, built out mostly between 2018 and 2022. It's close to Chinook Gate Park and offers the kind of walkable, well-maintained streetscape you'd expect from a newer development.

SW Airdrie in general is well-connected to the main corridors heading south toward Calgary — useful if you're commuting or just want quick access to the QE2. And in a buyer's market like we're currently in, there's more room to negotiate than there was 12 months ago.

What Buyers at This Price Point Usually Want

The buyers I work with in the $400k–$430k range typically have a few priorities they won't compromise on:

  • Square footage. They're done with tight layouts, especially if they're moving up from a condo or a smaller townhome.

  • Outdoor space. A private backyard matters — for kids, for dogs, for actual summer use.

  • Newer construction. Less repair risk, more predictable maintenance.

  • Air conditioning. More Airdrie buyers are treating this as a must-have now, not a nice-to-have.

This property hits all four. That's why it's worth a closer look even in a short video format.

The $415,000 Price in Context

For a recently built home in Airdrie with a finished basement and private yard, $415,000 is toward the lower end of what's available right now. You're not finding 1,880 developed square feet at this price in many places.

If you want a different comparison, there's also a detached home in Airdrie under $380,000 that I covered recently — an older home with a bigger lot and a different value proposition. Different situation, different buyer.

And if you're still deciding whether Airdrie is the right fit, this honest breakdown of the pros and cons of living in Airdrie in 2026 is a good place to start.

A home like this — newer build, good square footage, private yard, A/C — at this price point doesn't usually sit long once buyer activity picks back up heading into fall.
