Calgary real estate offers the opportunity to purchase modern homes in older inner-city communities. With urban amenities and easy access to transit and downtown, buying an infill property is the perfect combination of a contemporary house and urban conveniences.
R-C2 properties have the potential to be redeveloped from an older single-family home (usually a bungalow) into a modern home or semi-attached house. Explore the current real estate listings for Calgary inner-city bungalows, zoned R-C2.
Know the zoning
No matter what kind of home you’re buying, it is important to know the zoning. Here are a few of the most common zoning for residential properties in Calgary:
- R-1 and R-C1: Mostly single-detached homes
- R-2 and R-C2: Mostly duplexes, side-by-side houses; single detaches homes may have a secondary suite
The City of Calgary has resources to understand residential zoning codes. If you have any questions about zoning – for your home or any properties you’re interested in – please contact us anytime. Zoning is important and we are happy to help you understand.
Infill basics
Some Calgary inner-city communities have R-C2 zoning, meaning the property can be redeveloped from a single-family home (usually a bungalow) into one or two modern houses. You can build two detached houses or two attached homes, depending on the size of the lot. Some popular communities with R-C2 zoning includes Altadore/River Park, Killarney, Capitol Hill and Tuxedo Park
Developing infills begins with zoning, but it can be a complex process. Be sure you know the permits required – the City of Calgary offers helpful resources to get started.
