Crescent Road, Toronto

This rear yard addition project involved the demolition of an earlier existing addition. A new full basement and ground floor space was added spanning across the full width of the older original home. The ground floor space was configured as a garden room with seating overlooking the garden to the south and a built in breakfast nook to the north adjacent the kitchen. The kitchen was also renovated with custom cabinetry designed to suit the decorating style of the new addition. Extensive glazing was used on the garden facing facade and custom roof skylights were installed over the new space. The basement addition increased the space for the existing recreation room and also provided a generous walk out. Large basement windows were installed to take best advantage of the opportunity for natural lighting and ventilation. Space under the existing deck was reconfigured with new access from the walkout for garden storage.
