Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Chestermere, this rare bungalow villa offers the perfect blend of quality craftsmanship, thoughtful upgrades, and low-maintenance, "lock-and-go" lifestyle. Seamlessly designed for comfort and accessibility, this home features almost 1,500 square feet on the main floor, ensuring everything you need for daily life is on one level. You are welcomed into a bright, open-concept layout with soaring vaulted ceilings, an abundance of natural light, and a warm living area centered around a cozy fireplace. The functional and elegant kitchen is complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a bright skylight, and plenty of room to gather. This main level also includes a versatile formal dining or flex space, a convenient half-bath for guests, and a dedicated main-floor laundry room so you never have to haul heavy baskets between floors.

The primary suite serves as a true main-floor retreat, showcasing a fully renovated ensuite with a walk-in double shower, new fixtures, a double vanity, and a generous walk-in closet. While you can live comfortably entirely on the main level, the fully finished basement offers the perfect setup for guests, hobbies, or live-in care. Downstairs, you will find two additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and a spacious living area that provides excellent separation of space and privacy for visiting family.

Extensively and professionally renovated, the home provides true move-in-ready peace of mind with fresh paint, new baseboards,  new carpet in the basement, alongside updated bathrooms with modern fixtures, a new hot water tank (2023), new A/C for year-round comfort, a newer roof (2015) with a 30-year limited warranty, and newer appliances. Step outside to enjoy two private patios—one on the side and one in the backyard with an electronic awning—while the underground sprinkler system keeps the yard lush with minimal effort. Located just minutes from schools, parks, shopping, and the beautiful shores of Lake Chestermere, this home is surrounded by a welcoming, mature community. Best of all, you will appreciate the quiet atmosphere with no HOA or condo fees, though landscaping help is always available, offering the ultimate balance of independent single-level living with the ability to lock and go during those long winter months. Book a viewing today.&#xD;

This home is finally ready to sell. TURN-KEY and packed with potential, this beautifully maintained home in the heart of Chestermere offers the perfect opportunity to live comfortably while creating future rental income. With almost 1,900 SQ FT above grade plus a builder-finished basement with separate rear access, this property is ideal for buyers looking for a “live up, rent down” setup.

Welcoming you in is a charming front veranda and bright open-concept main floor featuring large windows, hardwood flooring throughout the main and second level, and a spacious living room with double-sided fireplace connecting to the dining area. The kitchen is designed for both function and style with granite countertops, tiled backsplash, stainless steel appliances, huge island, corner pantry, and plenty of cabinetry. A functional mudroom leads to the oversized detached garage, and central A/C (as is) keeps the home comfortable all summer long.

Upstairs features a bonus room, upper-floor laundry, and 3 generous bedrooms including a spacious primary retreat with walk-in closet and ensuite featuring dual vanities.

The fully finished builder-completed basement adds major value with 2 additional bedrooms with egress windows, a full 3-piece bathroom, large family room, and separate back entrance access making it an incredible opportunity for future legal suite development subject to approval and permitting by the city/municipality, multi-generational living, or mortgage-helping rental income.

Outside, enjoy the large deck, fenced yard, mature trees, and beautiful perennials on this wide 50’ lot. Located just steps from scenic walking paths, ponds, waterfalls, canals, schools, and parks in one of Chestermere’s most family-friendly communities.

A move-in ready home with flexibility, functionality, and income potential — this is one you don’t want to miss.&#xD;

FIRST TIME ON THE MARKET – TRULY CUSTOM BUILT 

This is a rare opportunity to own a home that was custom built by the original owner, a superintendent at a construction company, where every detail and every layout decision was planned ahead with intention and precision. This isn’t a cookie-cutter build—this is a thoughtfully designed home that reflects experience, quality, and long-term vision (NO POLY-B). With approximately 3,000 sq ft of total living space, there’s plenty of room for families to grow, gather, and enjoy.

Built in 1998, the home has been exceptionally well maintained and thoughtfully upgraded over the years. Major updates include a new furnace (2018), two new hot water tanks (2018), and a new roof (2018) with approximately 25 years of warranty remaining, offering true peace of mind for the next owner.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a rare and cozy private fireplace - a standout feature that creates a warm, relaxing retreat at the end of the day. The rest of the home follows a smart, efficient, and well-balanced layout, designed for real life, not just looks.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into the living room, making the main floor perfect for entertaining and everyday living alike. Main-floor laundry adds convenience, central air conditioning keeps the home comfortable through the summer, and the large west-facing backyard is ideal for pets, kids, BBQs, and long summer evenings.

Located on a safe, quiet circular cul-de-sac in an established and family-friendly neighborhood, this home is just blocks from Lake Chestermere, nearby schools, and the golf course. Enjoy the welcoming community and small-town charm of Chestermere, while being only minutes from Calgary and all major amenities.

Adding even more value, select items may be included in the sale, including custom stained-glass cabinetry in the bonus room, garage cabinets, and the pool table in the basement—making this home move-in ready with thoughtful extras already in place.

Homes built with this level of care, foresight, and craftsmanship rarely come to market. If you’re looking for quality, space, and location—this one checks every box. Contact your favorite Realtor for a showing.&#xD;

      <description>&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;The detached housing market in Calgary remains one of the tightest segments, with demand staying strong despite rising inventory across the city.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;📊 &lt;strong&gt;Key Stats&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;• Detached Sales: &lt;strong&gt;736 homes sold&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;• New Listings: &lt;strong&gt;1,269&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;• Sales-to-New-Listings Ratio: &lt;strong&gt;58%&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;• Months of Supply: &lt;strong&gt;Just under 3 months&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;• Benchmark Price: &lt;strong&gt;$734,300&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;📈 &lt;strong&gt;Price Trend&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;• &lt;strong&gt;+1% month-over-month&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;• &lt;strong&gt;−3% year-over-year&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;💡 &lt;strong&gt;What it means:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;Detached homes remain relatively balanced, with the tightest conditions in higher-demand districts. Limited supply—especially for homes &lt;strong&gt;under $700K&lt;/strong&gt;—continues to support prices even as overall market conditions in Calgary become more balanced.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

FIRST TIME ON THE MARKET – TRULY CUSTOM BUILT 

This is a rare opportunity to own a home that was custom built by the original owner, a superintendent at a construction company, where every detail and every layout decision was planned ahead with intention and precision. This isn’t a cookie-cutter build—this is a thoughtfully designed home that reflects experience, quality, and long-term vision (NO POLY-B). With approximately 3,000 sq ft of total living space, there’s plenty of room for families to grow, gather, and enjoy.

Built in 1998, the home has been exceptionally well maintained and thoughtfully upgraded over the years. Major updates include a new furnace (2018), two new hot water tanks (2018), and a new roof (2018) with approximately 25 years of warranty remaining, offering true peace of mind for the next owner.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a rare and cozy private fireplace - a standout feature that creates a warm, relaxing retreat at the end of the day. The rest of the home follows a smart, efficient, and well-balanced layout, designed for real life, not just looks.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into the living room, making the main floor perfect for entertaining and everyday living alike. Main-floor laundry adds convenience, central air conditioning keeps the home comfortable through the summer, and the large west-facing backyard is ideal for pets, kids, BBQs, and long summer evenings.

Located on a safe, quiet circular cul-de-sac in an established and family-friendly neighborhood, this home is just blocks from Lake Chestermere, nearby schools, and the golf course. Enjoy the welcoming community and small-town charm of Chestermere, while being only minutes from Calgary and all major amenities.

Adding even more value, select items may be included in the sale, including custom stained-glass cabinetry in the bonus room, garage cabinets, and the pool table in the basement—making this home move-in ready with thoughtful extras already in place.

Homes built with this level of care, foresight, and craftsmanship rarely come to market. If you’re looking for quality, space, and location—this one checks every box. Contact your favorite Realtor for a showing.&#xD;

      <title>Buyer’s Tips</title>
      <link>https://metrocitycalgary.com/blog.html/buyers-tips-8926785</link>
      <description>&lt;h2&gt;1. Buy the &lt;strong&gt;Lifestyle&lt;/strong&gt;, Not Just the House&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Most buyer regret doesn’t come from the house—it comes from the &lt;strong&gt;location and daily life&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Ask yourself:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;How long is the commute &lt;em&gt;in real life&lt;/em&gt;, not on Google Maps?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Are schools, shopping, parks, and recreation aligned with your stage of life?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;How will this area feel &lt;strong&gt;5–10 years from now&lt;/strong&gt;, not just today?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A perfect house in the wrong neighborhood is still the wrong buy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top:0; --margin-bottom:0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;2. Get Financially Comfortable — Not Maxed Out&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Just because a lender approves you for a number doesn’t mean you should spend it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;I recommend buyers:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Leave room for &lt;strong&gt;rate changes, kids, career shifts, and repairs&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Budget for property tax increases, utilities, insurance, and maintenance&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Plan for the &lt;em&gt;first year costs&lt;/em&gt; people forget: window coverings, landscaping, furniture, small fixes&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Comfort beats bragging rights every time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top:0; --margin-bottom:0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;3. Learn to Tell the Difference Between &lt;strong&gt;Cosmetic vs Structural&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Paint, flooring, fixtures—easy.&lt;br&gt;Roof, foundation, plumbing, grading—expensive.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A seasoned buyer focuses on:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Roof age&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Furnace &amp;amp; hot water tank life&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Foundation cracks (type and direction matter)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Drainage and lot grading&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Electrical panel capacity&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;You can change almost everything in a home—&lt;strong&gt;except the bones&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top:0; --margin-bottom:0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;4. Don’t Fall in Love Before You Understand the Resale&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Even if this is a “forever home,” life happens.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Think like a future buyer:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Does it have functional bedroom/bathroom count?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Is the layout practical or quirky?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Is it over-customized for the area?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Would &lt;em&gt;you&lt;/em&gt; hesitate if you saw it listed again?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Smart buyers always buy with one eye on resale.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top:0; --margin-bottom:0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;5. Understand the &lt;strong&gt;Micro-Market&lt;/strong&gt;, Not Just Headlines&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Market headlines lie by averaging everything together.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;What matters:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;This &lt;strong&gt;street&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;This &lt;strong&gt;home style&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;This &lt;strong&gt;price bracket&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;This &lt;strong&gt;neighborhood pocket&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Two homes 5 minutes apart can behave like completely different markets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A good agent should show you:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Recent comparable sales&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Days on market trends&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;How much leverage buyers actually have &lt;em&gt;right now&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top:0; --margin-bottom:0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;6. Be Strategic in Negotiations (Not Emotional)&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;I’ve seen more deals lost over ego than money.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Good strategy means:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Knowing when to push and when to protect the deal&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Not fighting over small items and losing big concessions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Understanding seller motivation (timeline &amp;gt; price sometimes)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Winning the negotiation isn’t about paying the least—it’s about getting the &lt;strong&gt;right terms&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top:0; --margin-bottom:0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;7. Never Skip Due Diligence to “Win”&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;I’ve watched buyers regret this for decades.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Always protect yourself with:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Home inspection (even in competitive markets)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Condo document review when applicable&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Clear financing conditions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Understanding zoning, permits, and future development nearby&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A house you win but regret is not a win.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top:0; --margin-bottom:0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;8.

      <title>Seller’s Tips</title>
      <link>https://metrocitycalgary.com/blog.html/sellers-tips-8926745</link>
      <description>&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Price It for the Market You’re In — Not the One You Remember&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;One of the biggest mistakes I see sellers make is pricing their home based on a market they remember, not the market we’re actually in. What your neighbor sold for last year — or what homes were getting at the peak — doesn’t matter to today’s buyers. They’re comparing your home to what’s available &lt;em&gt;right now&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;When a home is priced correctly for the current market, it creates urgency and competition. When it’s priced for the past, it sits — and sitting costs you leverage. The goal isn’t to test the market. The goal is to be the best option buyers see the moment your home hits the market.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. First Impressions Are Everything (Online Comes Before In-Person)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Buyers today make decisions fast — and most of them happen before a showing is ever booked. If your home doesn’t stand out online with great photos, clean spaces, and strong presentation, buyers simply move on to the next listing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;First impressions aren’t about being perfect — they’re about being memorable. The goal is to make buyers feel like your home is the obvious choice the moment they see it. When the presentation is right, everything else becomes easier: showings, offers, and negotiations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Fix Small Issues — Don’t Let Buyers Assume Big Problems&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Sellers often overlook small issues because they feel insignificant. But buyers don’t know your home — they only know what they can see. When minor repairs are left undone, buyers start assuming there are bigger problems hiding behind the walls.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Spending a few hundred dollars before you list can protect you from losing thousands during negotiations. Clean, well-maintained homes feel safer to buyers — and safe buyers pay more and negotiate less.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Don’t Renovate Blindly&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;One of the most expensive mistakes sellers make is renovating without a plan. Just because something costs a lot doesn’t mean buyers will pay for it. Over-upgrading or choosing bold, personal finishes can actually narrow your buyer pool.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;The goal before selling isn’t perfection — it’s appeal. Focus on clean, neutral, and well-maintained. Smart, targeted updates almost always outperform full remodels when it comes to return on investment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Emotion Is the Enemy of a Good Sale&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Your home holds memories — but buyers don’t see those. They see square footage, layout, condition, and price. When sellers take feedback personally, they often make decisions that work against them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;The most successful sales happen when sellers stay focused on the end goal, not the comments along the way. Detachment creates clarity — and clarity leads to stronger decisions and better results.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Be Ready for the First Week — That’s When the Magic Happens&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Your home gets the most exposure and excitement in the first 7 to 10 days. That’s when serious buyers are watching, comparing, and ready to act. If pricing or presentation is off, that momentum disappears fast.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Price reductions later don’t recreate urgency — they raise questions. A well-prepared, properly priced launch puts you in control from day one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;7. Flexibility Often Beats Firmness&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Many great deals fall apart over things that don’t actually affect the seller’s bottom line. Possession timing, minor repairs, or small concessions can often unlock a stronger overall outcome.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Being flexible doesn’t mean giving in — it means understanding leverage. The goal is a clean, secure sale, not winning every small battle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8. Choose an Agent for Strategy, Not Promises&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;The right agent doesn’t just list your home — they position it. Pricing strategy, launch timing, negotiation planning, and buyer psychology matter far more than flashy promises.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Ask how your home will be positioned against the competition and what the plan is if the market pushes back. Experience shows up in preparation, not slogans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Market Report November 2025</title>
      <link>https://metrocitycalgary.com/blog.html/market-report-november-2025-8872098</link>
      <description>&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;🏡 &lt;strong&gt;Calgary &amp;amp; Area Housing Market Report — November 2025&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Posted: December 1, 2025&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;November brought another month of shifting conditions across the Calgary real estate market. Higher inventory levels, softer sales activity, and year-over-year price adjustments continue to signal a transition toward more balanced conditions — especially in the multi-family segments. Detached homes remain the most stable category, though performance varies across districts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Below is a breakdown of what happened across Calgary and surrounding communities in November 2025.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;---&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;📊 &lt;strong&gt;Calgary Market Overview&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;The pace of sales eased again in November, with &lt;strong&gt;1,553 residential transactions&lt;/strong&gt;, marking a &lt;strong&gt;13% year-over-year decline&lt;/strong&gt;. At the same time, &lt;strong&gt;2,251 new listings&lt;/strong&gt; came to market, pushing overall inventory up to &lt;strong&gt;5,581 active listings&lt;/strong&gt; — nearly &lt;strong&gt;28% higher than last year&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;With more supply and slower demand, the &lt;strong&gt;months of supply rose to 3.6&lt;/strong&gt;, the highest level for November in several years. This shift has taken some pressure off prices city-wide.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Total Residential Benchmark Price:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;$559,000&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;While this is down from the peak earlier in the year, long-term values remain resilient, supported mostly by detached and semi-detached activity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;---&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt; 🏠 &lt;strong&gt;Detached Homes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Detached properties continue to lead Calgary’s housing market in stability, though supply gains are softening price growth across certain districts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Key Numbers – Detached (Calgary)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Sales:** 823 (↓ 4.5% YoY)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*New Listings:** 1,255&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Inventory:** 2,444&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Months of Supply:** ~3.0&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Benchmark Price:** &lt;strong&gt;$733,000&lt;/strong&gt; (↓ ~2.1% YoY)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;### &lt;strong&gt;District-Level Performance – Detached&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Some areas are seeing notable resilience, while others face downward adjustments tied to new construction and higher inventory levels.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| District        | Benchmark Price | YoY Change | Notes                               |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| --------------- | --------------- | ---------- | ----------------------------------- |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;City Centre&lt;/strong&gt; | $944,500        | ↓1.1%      | Most stable inner-city performance. |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;North West&lt;/strong&gt;  | $767,600        | ↓0.9%      | One of the strongest districts.     |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;West&lt;/strong&gt;        | $943,000        | ↓1.7%      | Healthy demand, moderate supply.    |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;South&lt;/strong&gt;       | $705,300        | ↓2.3%      | Balanced conditions.                |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;South East&lt;/strong&gt;  | $694,500        | ↓3.0%      | Supply rising due to new builds.    |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;North&lt;/strong&gt;       | $650,400        | ↓4.2%      | Higher listings impacting prices.   |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;East&lt;/strong&gt;        | $507,000        | ↓4.7%      | Weaker demand; more inventory.      |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;| &lt;strong&gt;North East&lt;/strong&gt;  | $571,900        | ↓4.9%      | Most year-over-year price pressure. |&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Summary:&lt;/strong&gt; Detached homes remain steady, but district-specific supply levels are shaping price behaviour. West, NW, and City Centre continue to outperform; East and NE face the sharpest corrections.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;---&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;🏘️ &lt;strong&gt;Semi-Detached (Duplexes)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Semi-detached homes remain relatively balanced, with modest price adjustments and stable demand.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key Numbers – Semi-Detached&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Sales:** 166&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Months of Supply:** 3.29&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Benchmark Price:** &lt;strong&gt;$671,700&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*YoY Change:** ↓0.5%&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Semi-detached homes saw one of the smallest year-over-year price declines in the city — evidence that this category continues to offer strong mid-market value.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;---&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt; 🏡 &lt;strong&gt;Row / Townhomes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Row homes experienced the most significant pullback in activity and pricing among the low-density product types.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Key Numbers – Row Homes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Sales:** 257 (↓22% YoY)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Months of Supply:** 3.51&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Benchmark Price:** &lt;strong&gt;$424,400&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*YoY Change:** ↓6.2%&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Higher supply and competition between new builds and resales continue to weigh on this segment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;---&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;🏢 &lt;strong&gt;Apartment / Condominiums&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Condos remain the softest part of the market as new purpose-built rentals, rising resale listings, and higher investor supply keep conditions firmly balanced.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Key Numbers – Condos&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Sales:** 307 (↓28% YoY)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Months of Supply:** &lt;strong&gt;5.5&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Benchmark Price:** &lt;strong&gt;$309,300&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*YoY Change:** ↓7.2%&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;This is the most buyer-friendly segment in Calgary right now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;---&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt; 🌤️ &lt;strong&gt;Market Outlook&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Balance Returning:** After several years of tight conditions, Calgary is seeing more balance, driven by rising inventory rather than falling demand.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Price Trends:** Detached and semi-detached remain stable. Townhomes and condos will likely continue to see modest downward adjustments.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Supply Factors:** New construction, especially in North, East, and South East districts, is adding meaningful choice for buyers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Buyer Advantage:** Motivated sellers + more inventory = more negotiating power for buyers compared with the last two years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;*Seller Strategy:** Pricing and presentation are now essential. The “list high, wait, and expect multiple offers” strategy no longer applies in higher-supply segments.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;---&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;✔️ &lt;strong&gt;Final Thoughts&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;November showed a market finding its footing. Detached homes remain the anchor of stability, while multi-family segments offer opportunities for buyers seeking value. As supply continues to normalize, expect a calmer, more predictable market heading into 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Just two minutes from Lake Chestermere, you’ll enjoy an unbeatable lifestyle surrounded by natural beauty and year-round activities. Spend your summers boating, paddle boarding, or relaxing at the beach, and your winters ice skating on the nearby ponds or enjoying community events on the frozen lake.
