Can a space intended for a separate garage really be a sustainable, beautiful and practical home? With rising housing costs, the Laneway house has become a popular alternative for urban couples looking to move out of parents’ basements or highrise rentals. Join us October 20th to see seven homes that show limited space doesn’t mean limited style!
Built behind existing homes, these structures offer added income for the owner, can be a great rental option for young families, and preserve historic homes by in-filling rear yards which allows for gentler densification versus demolition and new builds. The homes on our tour best showcase their practical use of limited square footage while maximizing style, economy and green living.
I’m a student and $30 is a bit expensive. Are there student prices?
Thanks.
