Garden Suites by Toronto Neighbourhood

Local housing stock, by-law caveats, project examples and FAQs for each area we build in most.

Cedar-clad garden suite behind a 1950s bungalow on a deep Etobicoke lot

Etobicoke

Post-war bungalows and 1950s-60s side-splits

Wide post-war lots in Mimico, Alderwood and The Kingsway often fit a full 60 sqm suite. Valley-edge lots near the Humber River and Mimico Creek need TRCA screening first.

Single-storey garden suite behind a 1960s North York bungalow at dusk

North York

1950s-70s bungalows and back-splits

Wide 1950s-70s lots in Willowdale, Don Mills and Bayview Village, plus subway-linked rental demand, make this one of Toronto's strongest garden suite markets.

Single-level 60 sqm family garden suite on a large Scarborough lot

Scarborough

1950s-70s bungalows and two-storey homes

Larger suburban lots in Birch Cliff, Guildwood and Agincourt fit full-size, single-level family suites. Highland Creek and Bluffs ravine lots get TRCA screening first.

Compact garden suite behind a storey-and-a-half East York home

East York

Compact 1940s-50s storey-and-a-half homes and bungalows

Compact lots near Pape, the Danforth and Woodbine make measuring the true envelope essential. Attached suites and 40-48 sqm designs often win here.

Two-storey garden suite with loft behind a Victorian semi in Leslieville

Leslieville

Victorian and Edwardian row and semi-detached homes

Narrow, deep Victorian lots off Queen Street East, many backing onto public lanes. The 45 m fire access path decides most designs, and many lots qualify for a laneway suite too.

Board-and-batten garden suite behind an early 1900s house in The Beaches

The Beaches

Early 1900s detached and semi-detached homes, some inside a Heritage Conservation District

Early 1900s homes near the boardwalk and Kew Gardens, some inside a Heritage Conservation District. Heritage review shapes materials and massing, so we prepare it with the permit set.

Garden suite on helical piles beside protected oaks near High Park

High Park

Edwardian and 1920s detached homes

Edwardian and 1920s homes on lots backing onto ravines and parkland in Swansea, Roncesvalles and Bloor West Village. Foundation choice and footprint are settled in feasibility.

Garden suites in High Park →
Converted rear garage garden suite on a Riverdale lane

Riverdale

Victorian and Edwardian semis and detached homes, many with rear garages

Victorian and Edwardian semis with rear garages on lanes, plus strong tenant demand near the Danforth. Garage conversions and rental suites are the most common projects here.
