Privately positioned behind their parents’ magnificent West Van home, this young couple has created their dream living space. With real estate prices soaring, they have forged a unique path to homeownership in a neighbourhood and city they love but previously considered out of reach.
This laneway home, bathed in natural light, is a nod to the couple’s self-proclaimed minimalism. With functionality at the forefront of its design, this home delivers a satisfying and clutter-free lifestyle that beautifully balances practicality with aesthetics.
In addition to being this young couple’s dream home, this house is also the first iteration of our newest offering, the Small Home. Although its features vary, the footprint remains the same; 1 bedroom, 1 den/flex space, 1 bathroom, a compact yet stunning kitchen, a finished attic space (that doesn’t count towards the overall square footage), and a signature, stunning yet simple exterior to accompany any style of primary dwelling.
As we continue to navigate the complexities of urban living and real estate, the Small Home stands as a beacon of possibility and innovation. It’s proof that with thoughtful design, a dash of creativity, and a lot of determination, even the smallest of spaces can be transformed into a home that’s not just comfortable and sustainable, but truly your own.
