Our team worked closely with this first time developer to realize the laneway potential of a large unique property located footsteps from Dufferin Street. The result is this 1,450 square foot 2-storey laneway suite featuring 3 spacious bedrooms, a den, 2.5 bathrooms and a large living space complete with all the comforts of home. A centralized stair is accessed from the entry foyer, ascending to the upper floor that hosts a large principal bedroom with a walk-in-closet and ensuite alongside well-sized secondary bedroom spaces. The ground floor spaces are configured to maximize privacy at the laneway while providing ample physical and visual access to a spacious rear yard that promises to be perfect for a long-term family tenant. The minimal two-tone cladding scheme aims to compliment and reinforce the building’s geometry, with large linear apertures balancing both the laneway and garden elevations.
The Fairbank Laneway Suite is a prime example of how this exciting new typology can offer family-oriented rental solutions in various neighbourhoods across the city. By creating a secondary home that does not compromise on comfort, performance, or flexibility this suite will maximize the homeowner’s investment, becoming a centerpiece of their rental portfolio.
