Mahogany is a SE Calgary master-planned community at the deep-south edge of the developed city, bounded by Stoney Trail on the north, 52 Street SE on the west across to Auburn Bay, the proposed East Freeway alignment on the east, and 196 Avenue SE on the south. Council-approved in 2007 and built out from 2008 onward by Hopewell Residential, it is one of the largest master-planned communities in Calgary — 8,513 assessed properties, 13,860 residents at the 2021 census, and population still climbing as construction continues across the southern phases. The 22.7 disorder events per 1,000 residents work out to roughly half the citywide baseline of 54 per 1,000, marking it as one of the notably quiet SE communities at this build stage. Average assessed value sits at $690K, up 14.2% year-over-year and essentially tracking the broader citywide assessment trend at +15.2%. The structural feature is Mahogany Lake at the centre — a developer-built freshwater lake operated as an HOA amenity, with the Mahogany Beach Club residents’ facility on its shore. The community’s spot in the SE lake-and-megasuburb cluster is part of the broader picture inside Calgary’s 219 community profiles.

Who Lives in Mahogany
Mahogany's resident base skews family-formation dominant, and the 2021 census makes the pattern clear. The 0-to-19 share sits at 33% — the largest of any age band and well above the citywide average — with the 20-to-39 share close behind at 31% and the 40-to-64 share at 29%. The 65-plus share is only 7%, well below the citywide average and consistent with a community that has been actively building first-occupancy detached homes for fifteen years and has yet to accumulate the longer-tenure ownership base typical of established suburbs. The composition tracks what a master-planned lake community at this build stage with detached megasuburb housing and family-oriented amenities would predict: school-age children, young-family and pre-family households, and a small but rising professional-couple share. For a SE Calgary comparison with a different demographic profile at a similar distance from downtown and a much smaller and older community footprint, the Applewood Park profile is the closest reference point inside the same quadrant for a contrasting age-band split.

Living in Mahogany
Mahogany reads as deep-SE Calgary at the master-planned lake-community stage. The structural anchor is Mahogany Lake at the geographic centre — a developer-built freshwater lake operated by the community’s residents’ association as a private HOA amenity rather than a public park. Lake access is the main lifestyle pitch the community sells: kayaking and paddleboarding through the summer, ice skating and outdoor hockey through the winter, and the Mahogany Beach Club facility on the shore handling year-round programming, lessons, and event space. Built form runs the full master-planned megasuburb mix: detached single-family on the interior streets, attached townhomes and rowhomes on the collector frontages, and the Westman Village mixed-use development on the southwest shore of the lake adding mid-rise condos, retail, and a continuing-care residence on a single integrated site. Mahogany Village Market is the named retail anchor inside the community, carrying grocery, restaurants, and daily-needs services on a walkable corner without forcing a drive to a regional centre for every trip. Transit is bus-served — Calgary Transit operates SE local routes connecting to the South Health Campus in the adjacent Seton community and onward to the Red Line at Somerset-Bridlewood Station in the far SW, but there is no LRT inside Mahogany itself. The Green Line south leg is under construction at the time of writing and is not yet an operational rail option for the SE quadrant. The build template places Mahogany in the broader lake-community and master-planned megasuburb cluster — for the SW-quadrant lake-community variant at a similar value tier, see the Chaparral profile.
Things to do in Mahogany
The day-to-day amenity layer leans on the lake, the Westman Village mixed-use anchor, and the surrounding SE Calgary network of large parks and pathways. Mahogany Lake itself is the defining feature, with a beach, swim area, and pathway loop around the shoreline accessible to residents through the HOA. The Westman Village development on the southwest shore carries the Village Centre recreation facility, ground-floor retail, restaurants, and the integrated continuing-care residence on a single connected site, making it one of the larger private mixed-use developments completed in Calgary in the last decade. Mahogany Village Market handles daily-needs grocery, restaurants, and services on a walkable retail corner inside the community. The South Health Campus hospital sits in the adjacent Seton community to the immediate north and is the major Alberta Health Services facility serving the SE quadrant, alongside the Seton commercial node carrying additional large-format retail. Stoney Trail along the north edge handles the regional commute, with Deerfoot Trail a few kilometres west providing the main connection into the central city, and downtown Calgary about 25 kilometres northwest by road. For the directly adjacent SE Calgary lake-community neighbour at the same Hopewell-era build template, the Auburn Bay profile covers the northern peer immediately across the boundary, and the Legacy profile shows another master-planned SE megasuburb at a slightly earlier build stage on the SE Macleod Trail side without the lake feature. Lake access at the Beach Club is HOA-gated for residents, which means visitor and tour access requires going with a resident; this is the structural feature that makes the lake economically distinct from a municipal park.
The Mahogany real-estate read
Average assessed value of $690K places Mahogany in the upper-mid band of SE Calgary master-planned communities, with the 14.2% year-over-year run-up essentially in line with the broader citywide assessment trend at +15.2%. The historical curve in the Property Values section above tells the path: the average climbed from $546K in 2023 to $636K in 2024, then to $727K in 2025 before settling at the current $693K reading, with the bulk of the gain landing in the most recent two assessment cycles as the master-planned detached homes repriced through the broader market run-up. Building Activity is dominant in the data — 1,523 new-construction permits since 2024 worth $330M, against only 5 demolitions and 36 secondary-suite permits, signalling that Mahogany is overwhelmingly a first-build community rather than a redevelopment cycle. The property count has climbed from 6,774 at the end of 2023 to 7,431 by the end of 2025 and on to the current 8,513, a build cadence among the strongest in any Calgary community. The 3,727 m² average lot footprint is unusually high and reflects the inclusion of large unsubdivided parcels still in active build-out alongside the completed single-family homes; the typical owner-occupied lot is materially smaller than that aggregate figure suggests. For comparable SE Calgary value tiers with a similar master-planned pattern, the Douglasdale-Glen profile covers the 1990s SE riverside variant at a similar entry point, and the Acadia profile rounds out the inner-SE postwar reference set. For an inner-SE comparison at a different built form and density, the Albert Park / Radisson Heights profile shows the older inner-SE pattern.
Common Questions About Mahogany
Why are there two average values on this page?
The page shows two related but distinct figures because they come from two different official City of Calgary datasets with different aggregation methods. The Average Property Assessment (in the snapshot at the top of the page and in the "vs Calgary Average" card) is drawn from the City's live current-year assessment feed, using a broad aggregation across all residential parcels. The Year-End Assessment Roll figures in the Property Values chart and table below come from a separate dataset that captures each year's official year-end roll, using a narrower per-year methodology. Both are official data — the small difference between them is normal and reflects the different aggregation windows. For an at-a-glance current value, use the Average Property Assessment; for authoritative year-over-year trends, use the Assessment Roll.
What's the average house price in Mahogany?
The average assessed value in Mahogany is $690K. the housing runs the full master-planned mix — detached single-family, attached townhomes, and mid-rise condos at Westman Village; values climbed from $546K in 2023 to $727K in 2025 before settling at the current reading, with most of the gain in the last two assessment cycles.
How is the Mahogany real estate market?
Mahogany's assessed values rose 14.2% year-over-year, essentially in line with Calgary's broader +15.2% assessment trend. Building Activity is dominant with 1,523 new-construction permits since 2024 worth $330M, against only 5 demolitions — a first-build cadence among the strongest in Calgary as the community continues to complete southern phases.
Is Mahogany a good place to live?
Mahogany suits family-formation households drawn by HOA-managed lake access at Mahogany Beach Club, Westman Village amenities, and the South Health Campus in adjacent Seton. The trade-off is a roughly 25 to 35 minute drive to downtown via Deerfoot Trail and no operational LRT — the Green Line south leg is under construction but not yet running.
Is Mahogany safe?
Mahogany records 22.7 disorder events per 1,000 residents, well below Calgary's roughly 50-per-1,000 baseline — one of the notably quiet SE communities at this build stage. The latest count was up 14.2% year-over-year against the broader trend. The Safety section above shows the historical curve and SE quadrant comparison.
What is Mahogany known for?
Mahogany is known for its developer-built freshwater Mahogany Lake at the community's centre, the Mahogany Beach Club residents' facility, and the Westman Village mixed-use development on the southwest shore. Council-approved in 2007 and built out by Hopewell Residential, it is one of Calgary's largest master-planned lake communities.
How far is Mahogany from downtown Calgary?
Mahogany is about 25 kilometres southeast of downtown Calgary. Driving time runs roughly 25 to 35 minutes via Deerfoot Trail depending on traffic; the community is bus-served only, with Calgary Transit local routes connecting to the South Health Campus in adjacent Seton and the Red Line at Somerset-Bridlewood Station far to the SW.
