NEIGHBOURLINESS IS AT THE HEART OF

ESKER PARK

Calgary’s northwest is busting at the seams, new communities offering Calgarians a wide choice in homes and lifestyles have seemingly sprouted overnight along the stretch of 144 Ave NW. which has now become a golden corridor of exciting residential growth. But amidst all the tumult of the sector’s rapid development, there is one community that seems above the fray – Esker Park, a calm, quiet enclave that embraces connections and where a tightknit small town neighbourliness is espoused. Esker Park is exclusively developed by Shane Communities and built by Shane Homes, and represents an eagerly awaited 8

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 2–30, 2026

chapter in Shane Homes’ 45+ year homebuilding legacy in Calgary. Launched just this past year, Esker Park is a bespoke community with 350 lots that offers opportunities to build or buy spacious front-drive and laned single-family homes, wellappointed duplexes, and stylish townhomes. Esker Park’s message of connectivity is coming through, and buyers are seeing the appeal of this community designed to offer shared spaces and experiences. “The overall feedback at Esker Park has been very positive. One of the most common things people mention is that it genuinely feels

like home. Residents appreciate that it’s not a large, overwhelming community and there’s a strong sense of being part of a closerknit neighbourhood,” says Shane Homes’ New Home Advisor for Esker Park, Madi Luif. “Esker Park is in a more calm, less busy area where families can grow in peace.” A SHARED GROWTH

Esker Park gives new homebuyers the perfect opportunity to grow with the community. Designed with the family in mind, a key highlight is the planned 2.5-acre central park at its heart. “People are very excited about it,” Luif says. “It’s seen as a gathering place that will bring

families and friends together, further reinforcing that sense of connection and community that sets Esker Park apart.” When completed, the central park is designed to bring neighbours, families, and friends together and strengthen that sense of community. It will feature a children’s play area at a spacious, open location where parents can keep a watchful eye. It will have park benches and picnic tables giving lots of opportunities for neighbours to get to know each other. Looking ahead, Esker Park is adjacent to a future school site and has a planned commercial site, adding even more convenience right within the neighbourhood. MOVE-IN READY

Esker Park’s future can already be enjoyed today as Shane Homes is offering quick-possession and move-in ready homes in the community, particularly their sought-after duplex homes. Shane Homes has duplexes available designed for quick possessions that would be perfect for first-time homebuyers. Moveins for the first months of the New

Year are available, and buyers can be part of the growth of this astounding new community, Luif says. “The most common feedback we hear from our duplex homeowners is that these homes truly feel like real, standalone homes. You don’t feel like you’re sharing a wall with a neighbour at all,” she adds. One feature setting Shane Homes’ duplexes apart is they are all YELL Test-approved, meaning sound transfer is minimal. “Our duplex homes at Esker Park are genuinely special and maybe I’m a bit biased since I live in one myself, but that firsthand experience really says it all. I can confidently say the sound dampening works: I play my music as loud as I want, and my neighbours have never mentioned hearing a thing.” She points out that this is thanks to a full one-inch separation in framing between the homes, which helps prevent sound and vibration from carrying from one side to the other. “Another major difference is the width. Our duplexes are 20 feet wide, compared to most duplex homes on the market that are only

16-18 feet wide. That extra width makes a noticeable difference, and the homes feel spacious and open rather than long and narrow,” she adds. The open-concept main floor layout is perfect for hosting, which Luif says she personally loves, “and it supports both everyday living and entertaining.” “This added width also allows our duplexes to feature a family room on the upper level, something you would typically only see in front-garage homes; another way these duplexes deliver the comfort and functionality of a larger, detached home.” At Esker Park, Shane Homes currently offers two duplex models – The Cascade sized at 1,644 square-feet; and the 1,696 squarefoot Delta II. Both start from the $570s, and both have showhomes already open. Possession timelines range from immediate, February 2026, March 2026, and April 2026. “These duplexes are a great option for buyers looking for a spacious, well-built home that still offers the comfort, privacy, and sense of community Esker Park is known for!” she says.

HOME STYLES FOR EVERYONE

A COMMUNITY FOR EVERYONE

Esker Park offers a variety of thoughtfully designed home types – from starter, to move-up, to downsizer homes – that create a complete community. Besides the duplexes, available are Front-Garage Homes that are deal for families looking for more space and traditional home layouts. Laned Homes that Luif says are a great option for buyers who want modern design with efficient, functional living. Street Townhomes (Coming Soon) – “they are an exciting future addition that will bring a higherend townhome option to the community,” she adds. Esker Park features six beautifully designed show homes, allowing buyers to experience the homes firsthand: • 2 Front-Garage Homes • 2 Landed Homes • 2 Duplex Homes • 1 Townhome (coming soon)

Esker Park offers a safe and welcoming environment with nearby parks, green spaces, and walkable pathways that encourage outdoor activity and quality time together. The community’s thoughtfully planned streets and shared spaces make it easy for children to play, neighbours to connect, and families to put down long-term roots. It’s perfect for first-time homebuyers drawn to Esker Park for its modern, well-designed homes that are both stylish and comfortable. The homes are easy to live in, thoughtfully laid out, and located within a community that supports everyday convenience – making homeownership feel exciting, not overwhelming. Move-up buyers are attracted too because Esker Park delivers the next level of living. Spacious layouts, modern finishes, and quality construction allow

homeowners to settle in effortlessly while enjoying a touch of luxury in their everyday lives – without losing the warmth and community feel they value. “With everything from townhomes in Phase 1 to Estate Ridge lots coming in Phase 3, there truly is something for everyone at Esker Park,” Luif says.

TRENDING | EXPLORE WEST CALGARY

WESTERN CALGARY HAS ALL THE NEW HOME ACTION by PEPPER RODRIGUEZ Upper Greenwich

When Valley Ridge and Crestmont opened in the early 2000s, the west end of Calgary was just opening up to new home opportunities, but it wasn’t until the completion of the ring road a couple of decades later that this portion of the city began to really boom. Calgary is dissected into four quadrants – northwest (NW), southwest (SW), northeast (NE), and southeast (SE) – with the Bow River and major thoroughfares usually acting as the borders. NW Calgary is generally west of Centre Street/Harvest Hills Blvd and north of the Bow River/Sarcee Trail/ Hwy 1, while SW Calgary is south of the Bow River/Sarcee Trail/Hwy 1 and west of Centre Street/Macleod

Trail. It is in the middle of these two sectors where a lot of new and dynamic communities have sprung up with a wide variety of choices catering to every lifestyle. Last issue, we explored the growth of new communities in the northern side of northwest Calgary, this time we’ll look more on the western side, generally where Highway 1 and Stoney Trail intersect. On the north side of that divide, you’ll find communities like Rockland Park and Upper Greenwich, and on the south side are University District, Trinity Hills, and the new community of Osprey Hill. These communities straddle the line between NW and SW Calgary, but no matter the quadrant, they are still very much primed for growth. NEW OFFERINGS

The northwest is undergoing a rapid transformation, the sector which had once lived in the shadow of southwest Calgary as the most sought-after residential neighbourhood is now gaining prestige of its own. Where growth used to be focused along the Country Hills Boulevard NW, there are now two main growth nodes 12 New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 2–30, 2026

sprouting around the northern sections of Stoney Trail. One along the now completed 144 Avenue NW and another in the increasingly urbanized areas to the west. New communities, like Livingston, Carrington, Carrington South, Esker Park, Starling, Glacier Ridge, Ambleridge, and Ambleton are clustered around Stoney Trail and the accessibility the ring road offers. While University District, Upper Greenwich, and Trinity Hills have become hotspots of cosmopolitan living. Rockland Park and Crestmont View are at the very western edge of the city and offer stunning nature backdrops. Arbour Lake West is growing around an already established lake community. It’s this diverse offering of homeowning opportunities and lifestyle that has fuelled the growth of the northwest and it’s not about to stop. WEST OF THE NORTHWEST

Living in this part of town has never been more attractive. The WinSport Calgary Olympic Park is the main recreation facility in the area, and not just for winter sports. There’s skiing, and snowboarding

Trinity Hills

and skating, of course, but in the summers, there is also mini golf, mountain biking and more. The second location of the Calgary Farmers Market is here too, offering Calgarians 54,000-squarefeet of retail space with over 75 vendors that bring everything from fresh produce and Alberta-raised meats to globally inspired meals and handmade goods. “The vibrant food hall features 20 family-owned restaurants, seating for 300, a soaring glass atrium, and our beloved Barnyard Kids play area – making it a go-to spot for locals and visitors alike. With over 1 million guests annually, it’s more than a market – it’s a Calgary tradition,” it says on its web page. Of course, living this close to the Trans-Canada Hwy 1 brings you that much closer to a mountain getaway. It’s barely 15 minutes from the intersection of Hwy 1 and Stoney Trail to Cochrane, and less than an hour to Canmore and Banff.

Partners Development Group is confident that this part of the northwest will continue to enjoy growth, as buyers realize the easy living lifestyle that is so easily available here, as well as the variety of homes offered. Partners’ boutique urban enclave of Upper Greenwich community just off Hwy 1 is making further progress with an ever-growing number of new amenities, while offering apartment condos, townhomes, paired homes and a widening choice of estate homes. “It continues to evolve in its third year with a growing variety of premium housing opportunities, including The Vintage Condos by Partners, Partners Homes Luxury

Paired, Modern Brownstones and the newest Classic Townhomes launching winter 2026,” says Director of Marketing, Ryan Hall He adds that Crystal Creek Homes will join the Upper Greenwich builder group and unveil its new urban estate showhome in the spring of 2026. Upper Greenwich remains a bastion of estate living, with Fifty5 Homes offering a luxurious Urban Estate showhome, and New West luxury homes bringing a brand new showhome in January 2026. Also new in Upper Greenwich is the Vintage condos. The Vintage will be comprised of 270 residences distributed across four elegant five-story buildings. The buildings are wood-frame construction with a concrete topper between floors to enhance soundproofing and minimize noise transfer. “The development is designed to offer a balance between privacy, community, and accessibility, with easy access to nearby shops, shopping, the canal, Bowness Park and walking paths,” Hall says. Crystal Creek Homes and Jayman BUILT are enjoying success in their developments in University District, one of Calgary’s hottest urban residential communities.

There are plenty of multi-family developments in this area of the northwest, particularly in University District where apartment condos and townhomes are the primary residential abodes offered. Trinity Hills is the same, but Partners Development Group’s Upper Greenwich has a balanced mix of single and multi-family homes.

Crystal Creek Home’ GUILD townhomes bring a level of luxury to this vibrant, walkable community filled with top-tier amenities. Each townhome boasts its own private elevator for added convenience and accessibility, along with expansive rooftop patios perfect for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. With double-car garages, these townhomes provide both luxury and practicality. Jayman BUILT’s latest is Magna condos. This two-tower, six storey, luxury condominium is the only concrete residence in University District, it says.

SINGLE-FAMILY OFFERINGS

Rockland Park is a young established community that grew quick, opening its first showhomes just in 2022. Today it is a flourishing community with its own thriving community hub. Rockland Park is the first masterplanned community in northwest Calgary in over a decade. Designed to honour its natural surroundings, this award-winning community brings people together through thoughtful planning and vibrant outdoor spaces. It was named New Community of the Year in 2021. Rockland Park offers a wide range of home styles for all generations, from townhomes

to estate homes. Homebuyers can choose from floorplans from Baywest Homes, Brookfield Residential, Morrison Homes, Brookfield Residential, Cedarglen Homes, Crystal Creek Homes, Homes by Avi, and Morrison Homes. Crestmont View by Qualico Communities is well on the way to build out but estate homes by Homes by Us are still available.

TRENDING | 2026 CALGARY OUTLOOK

OPTIMISTIC OUTLOOK FOR 2026 (PART 2)

Calgary remains to be the engine for new home growth in the country, and the outlook for 2026 remains optimistic. “Alberta continues to lead Canada in population and economic growth, with Calgary at the forefront thanks to its competitive advantages: a diverse and growing workforce, robust infrastructure, and a businessfriendly environment,” says BILD Calgary Region CEO Brian Hahn. He believes growth is still in the forecast with Calgary’s varied new home owning opportunities. “For homebuyers next year, it’s important to explore options early and act with confidence. Calgarians are looking for homes that balance lifestyle, location and affordability.” He adds that BILD Calgary Region members are delivering more options than ever – townhomes, condos, and singlefamily homes, not to mention more

new communities – so buyers have real choice while keeping affordability front and center. There are so many new home opportunities coming up that we had to split this feature into two parts, the first ran in the December 2025 issue. Here’s part two. EXCEL HOMES

Excel Homes is welcoming the New Year in a big way, as the renowned builder introduces their first multi-family development in Mahogany, and brings in yet even more home opportunities with more new single-family models, new pricing and new enhanced standard specifications guaranteed to impress. Excel Homes’ The Monocle street-towns bring a refined and affordable lifestyle opportunity in most popular lake community in the southeast. It will have two showhomes open this spring,

says Excel Homes Marketing Manager, Kristina Plank. “2025 was a big year for us, as we celebrate our 15,000th homeowner, and 2026 is looking even more promising as we begin sales for Monocle,” she adds. Excel is also expanding to more new communities. This fall they will open at least two showhomes in the new southeast community of Hazel; and another two, at least, in Monarch in the southwest. The latter is the latest community development from Apex, and the former is from Genesis Land. Excel also marked its 15,000th homeowner last year, and they are well on their way to the next milestone with these new releases in 2026. Go to excelhomes.ca for more updates. PARTNERS

Partners Development Group is continuing its growth with new projects that reflect evolving buyer

Monocle by Excel Homes

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 2–30, 2026

needs and community trends in 2026. Here’s some of what buyers can expect from them in the coming year. “We’re introducing a new street town product in the established southwest community of Sirocco, with a targeted July 2026 opening,” says Director of Marketing, Ryan Hall. Partners is also the developer of Heritage Crossing, a country residential property featuring 145 lots in DeWinton, just outside Calgary’s southern city limits. “Expect single-family homes by Crystal Creek Homes, Genesis Builders, and NuVista Homes, plus villa bungalow duplexes and street town bungalows by Partners Homes,” he adds. Launch is in Fall 2026. In northeast Calgary, Partners will continue to develop their communities of Keystone Creek (which just opened last fall), and Homestead, which also saw grand opening celebrations for the new showhomes in its latest phase. Meanwhile, their Upper Greenwich community in the northwest continues to grow, as Crystal Creek Homes is expected to join its Urban Estate builder

group, and New West Luxury Homes unveils a new estate showhome. Their Vintage by Partners multi-family project here was also introduced in June offering attractive pre-sales pricing on the first building. In Okotoks, Partners will be completing the final two buildings for Lawrie Park in Wedderburn, the town’s first condo development in a long while. “We will also be in Ridgemont, a Lamont Land community, with duplex

homes in 2026,” Hall adds. Go to partnershomes.ca for the latest. QUALICO COMMUNITIES

Year 2026 will be another busy and exciting year for Qualico Communities, says Rishika Dave, Communications Specialist at Qualico Communities Calgary. “We’re gearing up for grand show home openings in Ambleridge (Northwest Calgary) and Vantage Rise (Airdrie) and the release of their initial phases.”

Partners’ Keystone Creek

nexthome.ca

She adds that several communities will see new phase launches, including Qualico’s newer communities, Bridgeport in Chestermere and Southbow Landing in Cochrane. “Our more established communities of Vermilion Hill and Dawson’s Landing will enter their final phases,” Dave says. “We’re also looking forward to welcoming more communities to our portfolio and are working on something special in Vermilion Hill.” The first retailers in Dawson’s Landing’s 10-acre commercial space will be opening, as will the 24-acre Eco Park. Amenities in all our communities will continue to progress as planned. “Harmony, our 8-time BILD Calgary Community of the Year winner, will launch Phase 28 in Harmony Harbour, featuring diverse home types, and Phase 15’s launch will see more laned and front garage semi-estate homes. We expect to have more news throughout the year on new multi-family sites Trico Homes

New Home + Condo Guide | Jan. 2–30, 2026

and coming amenities.” Go to qualicocommunitiescalgary.com for the latest. TRICO HOMES

2026 is looking to be another banner year for Trico Homes, as it continues to introduce new products and designs for its line of front-garage, laned, bungalows and townhomes. Focus will be on enhancing overall customer experience and creating lasting value for our customers, says Trico Homes Director of Marketing, Glenda Schwartz. “Trico will be releasing new and improved 2026 specifications based on feedback from our customers,” she adds. “We are adapting to meet the changing needs of our customers with new product and designs and building in new communities.” Trico will be expanding to a host of new communities, notably – Ambleridge, Damkar, Rose Ranch, Vantage Rise, Spring Valley and Valarosa in Didsbury.

Trico will also be releasing its new Summit Condos at Wentworth in the southwest in spring 2026. They are also opening their latest STARS Lottery grand prize home in January in the southeast community of Heartwood. They will be opening 21 new single- & multi-family showhomes across seven new communities in Calgary: including a bungalow villa and townhome in the awardwinning lake community of Harmony in Springbank, and five more in the Airdrie communities of Spring Valley (two front-drive showhomes), and Vantage Rise, two laned and one street town). Schwartz says buyers also have the last chance to get a Trico home in the maturing communities of Belmont, PineCreek, Sirocco in southwest Calgary, Cornerbrook in the northeast, Ambleton in the northwest, and in Rivercrest in Cochrane.

FOR THE DREAMERS:

The 2026 home decor edit by SALINA YARA HALABI

aving your head in the clouds can be a good thing – it’s a mark of a dreamer, a creator, or someone who imagines endless possibilities. The 2026 Pantone® Color of the Year, Cloud Dancer, captures that same hopeful optimism. Soft and airy, it’s described as “a whisper of tranquility and peace in a noisy world,” offering the perfect backdrop for creativity and calm to coexist. After years of rapid change and global heaviness, this gentle white offers a moment of clarity in an otherwise fast-paced world. It’s a shade that clears visual clutter, can effortlessly lift a space, and feels like a breath of fresh air. Cloud Dancer is the dreamer’s white – a blank canvas, the excitement of starting something new, and a reminder that every cloud has a silver lining. Daydreaming yet? Create something beautiful and bring Cloud Dancer into the home with curated pieces and thoughtful design moments. SILVER LININGS Cloud Dancer’s soft glow is the perfect backdrop for high-shine and metallic accents. Reflective and light-catching finishes bring warmth and shimmer – like sunlight peeking through clouds. • White and Silver Vase | nordstrom.com

CLOUDCORE COMFORT Serenity never felt so indulgent. Soft fabrics, rounded silhouettes, and cushy seating give Cloud Dancer spaces a quietly luxurious vibe – perfect for lounging, thinking, or pretending your emails don’t exist. • Curved Accent Chair urbanbarn.com

BLANK CANVAS ENERGY Cloud Dancer offers a luminous foundation that invites creativity to flourish. It opens space for artful accents and unexpected pairings that feel both fresh and intentional. • Porcelain Serving Tray | simons.ca

SUBTLE, NOT SHY Cloud Dancer sets the stage, letting soft tones like blush, sage, or powder blue, add just the right touch of personality. Calm, composed, and très chic, this is a room that feels effortless without ever being boring. • Cloud Wallpaper | anthropologie.com

DREAMY DIMENSIONS Who said white has to be flat? Layered textiles, natural ceramics, and woven accents add just enough texture to make Cloud Dancer feel anything but predictable. • Woven Accent Basket | cb2.ca
