Calgary’s fall market is showing its true colours - steady, balanced, and full of opportunity. Prices are holding across most segments, with detached homes sitting roughly 2–3% higher year‑over‑year and condos seeing softer conditions as new supply continues to hit the market.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Citywide, the benchmark price is up about 3.1% year‑over‑year, and inventory has climbed, giving buyers more breathing room than we’ve seen in the past few years. Detached homes over $750K are taking longer to sell, averaging 34 days on market, which means conditions are shifting toward negotiation and thoughtful decision‑making.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For sellers, well‑priced listings still move - especially in tight segments like condos and townhomes. For buyers, especially move‑up buyers, this is one of the most balanced moments Calgary has seen in years.

Tour This Nature-Inspired Home With a 12-Foot Kitchen Island and Breezy Backyard - Wood ceiling beams bring warmth and coziness to the great room, which features impressive 18-foot ceilings at its peak. Built-in shelves repeat the arched silhouette and offer a sense of softness next to the stone facade.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The custom mantel is in step with the room’s natural elements, including the chandelier’s rope detailing. “We chose furniture that emphasizes the home’s relaxed, organic nature,” says Alison. “Most of the family members are over six feet tall, so these pieces allow them to sit back comfortably.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The home feels serene and Alison hears that it’s become a “drop-in zone” for the owners’ four grown children and their friends. “As a designer, I was thrilled to learn this. It doesn’t get better than a space where different age groups are able to hang out and enjoy each other.”

Located only a short drive from Calgary, this thoughtfully updated Springbank bungalow is nestled in the heart of a stunningly maintained four-acre property. It’s the ideal escape for an established or growing family looking to leave the suburbs. The five-bedroom, five-bathroom property has more than enough room, with more than 5,400 square feet of combined living space.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Lovingly updated over the years (the seller’s family moved into the property in the late ‘90s), the home’s design strikes the perfect balance between contemporary and cozy. A 900-square-foot addition in 2018 - including a foundation extension - resulted in an impressive primary suite. The original primary suite is also spacious, and includes a walk-in closet that has been converted into a reading nook.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Built for entertaining, the breathtaking kitchen features a six-burner Wolf range, a matching free hanging range hood, a commercial grade refrigerator and an expansive L-shaped walk-in pantry.⠀⠀

Daily Habits That Help Keep Your Home Clean Without Trying - You can keep a consistently clean home without spending hours scrubbing surfaces each weekend using a complicated chore chart, as long as you’re willing to adopt a few small habits throughout the week.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Micro-cleaning tasks work because they target the places that accumulate grime and clutter the fastest (think kitchen counters, entryways, bathroom sinks, and laundry piles). These tasks shouldn’t take longer than a few minutes each, and most can be squeezed in while you wait for your coffee to finish brewing or the shower water to heat up.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These small tasks aren’t about creating a social media-perfect home 24/7. Rather, they’re about realistic maintenance. A little wipe here, a little tidy there, and suddenly it’s easier to cook, relax, and host guests without the need for a deep cleaning session. The trick is consistency; doing a little daily keeps dirt from becoming daunting. Try these six quick, low-effort habits to make your home look and feel cleaner in the blink of an eye.

Colour-forward bathrooms - whether wrapped in a single saturated hue or dressed in a bold, expressive pattern - have a way of expanding a space and giving it personality. Layered tilework adds depth and texture, turning even small rooms into standout moments.

A cozy screened porch enjoys dramatic Severn River vistas
By Julie Sanders | Photography by David Burroughs
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Collaborating with Bayview Builders on a sprawling, custom home on the Severn River in Annapolis, architect Cathy Purple Cherry embraced traditional style and a breezy, coastal vibe - complete with turquoise-hued shingles. “The goal was to create expansive yet connected spaces with light-filled views, overlooking a pool, terrace, deck and beautifully landscaped gardens,” recounts Bayview’s David Carlisle.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Keeping the scenic locale in mind, Purple Cherry tucked a small, screened porch (above) to one side off the main living area, beyond which a watery panorama unfolds. “It’s a destination room,” the architect notes. “The clients requested that it support seating, not dining, so it’s smaller in scale and has a cozy atmosphere.” A stacked-stone-look tile fireplace anchors the space, where trim details on columns and ceiling reflect the home’s aesthetic. Comfortable Kingsley Bate furniture sits atop an ipe floor and an all-weather rug. A set of stairs leads down to the pool terrace, creating easy indoor-outdoor connectivity.

It’s the kind of kitchen that instantly pulls you into a little daydream - rich wood tones, sculptural stone, soft lighting, and those quiet luxury details that make the whole space feel intentional. High‑end kitchens always have this magic: they’re beautiful, yes, but they’re also built for living… slow mornings at the island, late‑night chats, hosting the people you love.

A home feels different when it’s layered with pieces that tell a story. This handcrafted Kantha quilt - made from 100% organic cotton and stitched by female artisans in Jaipur - is the kind of detail that turns a house into a lived‑in, loved‑in space.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Two layers of cotton joined by thousands of fine Kantha stitches, block‑printed with natural dyes… every quilt is one‑of‑a‑kind, just like every home we help our clients find.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because the right textiles don’t just warm a room - they warm the experience of home.
