– BACKGROUND
Our client was looking to enlarge her home, to accommodate her growing teenagers. Faced with a major home renovation or building a separate structure on her property, she chose to build a Backyard Suite. The two story, two bedroom Backyard Suite features second floor living area and a main floor music studio. Terrace doors open out from the studio to an interior courtyard. A great place for Saturday night jam sessions.

– THE IDEA
The Backyard Suite is situated on a corner lot with West and South exposure. The kitchen is set at the North of the second floor. Off the living area, a South balcony faces the lane. It provides extra three-season square footage, taking advantage of afternoon & evening sun.
