WITHROW PARK LANEWAY SUITE

The Withrow Park Laneway Suite is a 1,300 square foot 1-bedroom 1.5-bath rental unit serving as a guest house and long-term investment for the homeowner. The laneway suite houses a ground floor garage and multi-purpose space opening to the rear yard, with a bright and spacious living space above. The living, dining and kitchen area is justified to the laneway, providing privacy to the yard, where the bedroom harvests Southern daylight through a large juliette balcony set back to obscure views from grade.

The Withrow Park Laneway Suite combines traditional materials, a modern form and a unique, yet efficient layout within a compact mass appropriate for the site. This laneway suite is a prime example of how housing flexibility can be addressed through careful planning, considering various living scenarios in both the short and long-term.
