Beresford Ave., Toronto (2025)

A contemporary multi-unit residence designed on a 38×149 ft lot, divided into two semi-detached homes.

The goal was to maximize income potential on a compact site for a client who will live in one unit and rent out the others — creating a smart balance between personal living and investment.

The development includes:

2 walkout basement units (82 sqm each) with generous garden pits

2 main units (Levels 1–3, 243 sqm each) with 4 bedrooms

2 laneway suites (42 sqm each) above the garages

Together, these 6 units offer exceptional density and livability, proving that thoughtful design can transform limited space into long-term value.

The façade combines light grey brick, white stone, and wooden louvers, creating a clean modern look with warmth and texture.

At North + South Architects, we’re passionate about crafting innovative, modern homes like this — designed to meet today’s evolving urban lifestyles.
