How the Modern Living is laid out
Modern Living stacks the house above the garage. The ground floor is the practical end — a 40-foot garage, a foyer, laundry and a storage and mechanical room — with the stairs rising to everything else. Upstairs, an open kitchen and living space with a covered deck off it, and two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, one with a walk-in closet. It’s a narrow, tall footprint built for lots where width is what you don’t have.
The Modern Living is one of 10 two-bedroom models in our catalogue. Compare sizes and starting prices across our other two-bedroom designs. It’s also one of 15 two-storey models; see all 15 two-storey models side by side.

FAQ
Modern Living, answered.
What does Modern Living's $449,500 starting price include?
It covers the home itself — built to specification, delivered to your site, and installed on a prepared foundation. It does not include the foundation, site preparation, servicing, permits or municipal development charges. Those are quoted separately against your particular lot, because a serviced infill lot and a rural site needing a well and septic produce very different numbers. You get both figures before you commit.
How is Modern Living laid out?
Living space sits above the garage. The ground floor holds the garage, a covered entry, a foyer at 11′-2″ x 12′-0″, a laundry room and a storage and mechanical room. Upstairs is everything else: an open kitchen at 13′-8″ x 11′-10″ with an island, a living room at 13′-6″ x 11′-8″ opening onto a covered deck, two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The stairs are how you get to all of it.
How many bathrooms does Modern Living have?
Two full bathrooms, both on the upper floor and both with a tub — one at each end. The one beside the walk-in closet opens only into the 11′-0″ x 10′-0″ bedroom, so it works as that room’s ensuite; the other opens off the hallway by the second bedroom and also serves the living space.
What size is the garage, and how many cars does it hold?
One car. The garage is 13′-10″ wide by 40′-0″ deep, so it’s a single bay — two cars side by side needs around 18 to 20 feet of width. What the 40 feet gives you is roughly 18 feet of depth behind the vehicle, which suits a workshop, bikes and gear, or a small trailer. There’s one overhead door, so anything parked behind the car has to come out through it. If you need the garage and workshop space but not the house above it, we also build garages on their own.
What lot does Modern Living suit?
It’s 26 feet wide by 41 feet deep, which is a narrow, deep footprint — built for infill lots, tight urban sites and anywhere the buildable area runs long rather than wide. Building up rather than out is what makes that work. As always, setbacks, lot coverage and delivery access are checked at the site visit, since a truck and crane need room to reach the site and set the modules.
Can Modern Living be used as a garden suite or backyard unit?
Not usually. The ground-floor footprint is around 1,066 sq ft including the garage, which is larger than most Ontario municipalities allow for a detached additional residential unit. If a backyard unit is what you’re after, a compact two-storey plan on a smaller footprint is the better fit, and we can help you check your own municipality’s by-law.
