Where to Find Some of Calgary’s Best Duplex Homes

Duplexes are an increasingly sought-after home type in Calgary’s residential market. They are generally more affordable than comparable detached homes, making them extremely popular among homebuyers as of late. Whether you’re a homeowner wanting to move up into a larger house or perhaps an investor who wants to live on one side while renting out the other, duplexes are a great choice.

If you’re looking for a duplex home in the Calgary area, I’ve listed below a handful of exciting developments that may interest you.

Glacier Ridge

Glacier Ridge is an exciting new community under development by Anthem in the northwest, featuring mountain-inspired architecture and panoramic views of the foothills and Rockies. Day-to-day amenities nearby include the shops of Beacon Hill, Creekside, and Sage Hill Quarter, making it an excellent option for families who value convenience. The community has several duplex home offerings from award-winning builders including Cedarglen, Morrison, Shane, and Trico, that should not disappoint.

If you’re looking for a community with all the convenience you could hope for and offers easy access to the mountains, then Glacier Ridge duplex homes may have great potential for your goals.

Harmony

Located just a few minutes west of Calgary’s city limits in Rocky View County, Harmony is an exclusive lake community that puts residents closer to the foothills and mountains but not too far away from big city amenities. Home to two artificial lakes, the community features rear-laned and front-drive duplex homes from some of Calgary’s top builders including Broadview, AVI, Genesis, and Sterling.

If you’re looking to live closer to the outdoor playgrounds of the Rocky Mountains away from the hustle and bustle of the city but not too far from the day-to-day amenities you need, then a home in Harmony might be a great option.

Rockland Park

Found on the brim of the northwest quadrant, Rockland Park is a new Calgary community underway with a lot to offer residents. It features a central commercial hub with 85,000 square feet of retail and a 1.6-hectare park with activities for all seasons, including an outdoor swimming pool. Rockland Park duplex builders include the renowned Brookfield and Cedarglen, both award-winning companies in the Calgary region.

If you’re looking for a family-oriented neighbourhood with a very active central community centre year-round, a duplex home in Rockland Park may be an ideal choice.

Happy Home Hunting!

While the communities above offer great opportunities to own a duplex, I always encourage homebuyers to shop around as there are always many options out there at any given time. So, make sure to do your due diligence when buying a home!
