Martensville expansion

Martensville is a city 8 km north of Saskatoon that is ever expanding. In 2009 it received it’s City status and it’s been growing ever since. Recent retail growth has included Tim Hortons, Dairy Queen, Canalta Hotel, Taco Time, Pharmasave, among others have found a place to call home in this city. Saskatoon Co-op as well as a 20 acre business park which includes Saskatchewan’s first RV mall are also in the works along with a new City Hall and 50,000 square foot Athletic Pavilion currently under construction.

A big announcement came the other day to see a McDonald’s and a Canadian Tire joining Martensville’s economic development expansion. Both will be located north of Tim Horton’s in the area between Highway 12 and Centennial Drive.

The province also announced the addition of a joint use school to Martensville. With two major residential developments underway, there is no doubt that the demand is there.

One development worth mentioning is the recent condo project being built by North Prairie Developments. Chaparral Ridge is an affordable housing option for people of all lifestyles. There are 4 different models available with a variety of selections and upgrades to choose from to customize your home. Prices start at $199,900 + GST for a 3 bedroom/1 bathroom townhouse, making it a desirable option for people living in Martensville and those wishing to take the short commute to Saskatoon.
