Designs for a third storey addition


The narrow and small Toronto lot made it impossible to add a traditional addition to this home. A third storey addition with natural light and a patio was designed to make more space for a growing family.

Project Highlights:

  1. More space: third storey addition to add a fifth bedroom and third bathroom.
  2. Basement walk-out: maintenance-free private front walkout to basement.
  3. Outdoor dining and entertaining: larger area for backyard and stylish rooftop patio, perfect for entertaining.
  4. Committee of Adjustment approval: multiple design variances including the increased floor space by the third storey, and the reduction in minimum rear yard soft landscaping.
