Garden Suite Etobicoke

Professional Garden Suite in Etobicoke

Planning a garden suite in Etobicoke? Konstruction Group provides the framing, insulation, and drywall that make up the structural core of your backyard dwelling. Etobicoke is still in the early stages of garden suite adoption, and homeowners in The Kingsway, Mimico, Long Branch, and Islington Village are among the first to build. We handle the structural trades from framing through paint-ready walls so your project moves efficiently.

Etobicoke Garden Suite Regulations

Etobicoke follows Toronto's city-wide garden suite zoning rules, legalized in February 2022. The maximum allowable footprint is 60 square metres (approximately 645 square feet). Height limits depend on distance from the rear lot line — 4 metres when within 7.5 metres of the rear lot line, and up to 6 metres for a one-storey structure set further back. A building permit and full Ontario Building Code compliance are required. As of 2024, only approximately 6 garden suites had been built in Etobicoke, making this an early-mover opportunity for homeowners looking to add rental income or multi-generational living space. The Kingsway and Princess-Rosethorn have particularly large lots that are ideal for garden suites.

Why Etobicoke Is an Early-Mover Opportunity

With only a handful of garden suites built in Etobicoke so far, homeowners who act now are ahead of the curve. Etobicoke offers some of the largest residential lots within the City of Toronto — neighborhoods like The Kingsway, Princess-Rosethorn, and Markland Wood feature deep, wide lots that comfortably accommodate a garden suite within required setbacks. Along the lakeshore, Mimico, Long Branch, and New Toronto have been undergoing significant redevelopment, and garden suites align with the area's growing density. Even established post-war neighborhoods like Alderwood and Islington Village have lot sizes that work well for backyard dwellings. With strong rental demand driven by proximity to the Gardiner Expressway, UP Express, and Kipling transit hub, garden suites in Etobicoke offer a compelling return.
