They have one kid, but that place could easily accomodate three. The cost of renovation was relatively cheap too.
Prices have gone up, but they paid about $600k for it. It's a legit medium density option for Calgary.

The lack of noise from neighbouring units in our fourplex was one of the more pleasant surprises in our new place. We get much, much more noise from the sidewalk & streets then any of our shared walls.
I’m really not sure how they soundproof/fire break between units, but unless I’m outside flipping burgers on the BBQ next to their living room window, I hear literally nothing from the units I share walls with.
My other neighbours toddler made a game of tossing toys down the stairs one afternoon and he texted me asking if they were making too much noise… I didn’t even realize they were home that day.
