Where Is The Hamptons?
The Hamptons is bordered by:
62 Avenue NW to the north
Anthony Henday Drive to the east
Lessard Road to the south
Winterburn Road (215 Street NW) to the west
Neighbourhoods like Glastonbury and Granville sit directly to the north, giving residents even more options for dining, shopping, and community services.
History and Planning
Development in The Hamptons began in the early 2000s after City Council approved its neighbourhood plan in the late 1990s. The name "The Hamptons" pays tribute to Hampton Court in London, a favourite residence of King Henry VIII—fitting, considering the neighbourhood’s balance of modern convenience and classic charm.
As part of The Grange ASP, the community was designed with a mix of residential densities:
Two-thirds low-density homes (mostly detached single-family)
One-third medium-density homes (townhomes and condos)
The layout was designed for both beauty and function, featuring looping collector roads, scenic dry ponds and lakes for stormwater management, and pedestrian-friendly pathways connecting all parts of the community.
Homes and Lifestyle
The Hamptons offers a wide variety of real estate options:
Single-family homes with attached garages, ideal for families
Townhomes and duplexes for first-time buyers or downsizers
Condominiums and apartment-style units for those looking for low-maintenance living
Many homes back onto parks, lakes, or trails, and newer construction continues to pop up, offering modern finishes and energy-efficient features.
