Excel Homes is welcoming the New Year in a big way, as the renowned builder introduces their first multi-family development in Mahogany, even as it caps 2025 with a major milestone.

Excel Homes’ The Monocle street-towns bring a refined and affordable lifestyle opportunity in most popular lake community in the southeast, and marks handing over the keys to its 15,000th homeowner – quite the accomplishment in its 37th year in business.

“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,” says Excel Homes Marketing Manager, Kristina Plank.

There’s a lot to be excited about Monocle, as the street town brings an affordably stylish option to own a home in Calgary’s most popular lake community. “This remarkable southeast community is already established with tons of entertainment and commercial opportunities, not to mention endless recreational activities in Calgary’s largest lake,” she says.

Monocle also marks the first time Excel has launched a townhome development after Holland Park in Walden in 2018.

Monocle street town will have a total of 68 units with attached garages, and five unique floorplans of 2- and 3-bedroom models. “There are additional options of adding a flex room or extra bedroom in some of the plans,” Plank says.

“We started selling in November, with first possessions slated for the spring of 2026.”

Monocle boasts modern amenities and sophisticated style, with units ranging in size from 1,240- to 1,510 square-feet.

Monocle boasts timeless curb appeal with a Modern Farmhouse design, featuring clean lines, refined gabe rooms, and elegant accents. They are spacious three-storey townhomes that provide plenty of space for families to enjoy, work and play with upgraded shared wal construction that dampens sound transfer.

There are three designer palette packages to choose from that includes full-height kitchen backsplash, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring, spacious, full-width balconies with obscured glass privacy walls and back railing.

Monocle might suit best the needs of first-time homebuyers, offering young coupes or families a chance to own a home affordably in Mahogany. “It offers them room to grow,” Plank says.

“We pride ourselves on offering new homeowners the best value, for the best price. Our ‘anything but standard’ finishes set us apart from the rest and our contemporary design touches that will leave you enjoying your home for years to come.”

Monocle is located n the south side of Mahogany, close to the South Helath Campus Hospital and the dynamic commercial areas of Seton.

It will open showhomes in spring 2026, but interested parties can already make inquiries at Excel’s single-family front-drive garage showhome in Mahogany at 72 Magnolia Grn SE.

“Bring your future into focus at Monocle, with modern townhomes, including lake access,” Plank says.
