THE OWNERS OF THIS 100 YEAR OLD EDWARDIAN TORONTO HOME NEEDED EXTRA SPACE FOR THEIR GROWING FAMILY.

THE EXISTING ATTIC WAS TOO LOW FOR USABLE SPACE AND THERE WAS NO ACCESS TO IT. STUDIO Z DESIGNED A “KIDS RETREAT” BY STRIPPING AWAY THE EXISTING ROOF AND BUILDING A NEW TALLER ONE COMPLETE WITH 10 FOOT HIGH CATHEDRAL CEILINGS. THE NEW THIRD FLOOR INCLUDES 2 LARGE BRIGHT AND AIRY BEDROOMS WITH CUSTOM CLOSETS, AN ENSUITE BATHROOM AND AN OPEN PLAYROOM WITH ADJACENT READING NOOK.

ADDITIONAL RENOVATIONS WERE UNDERTAKEN TO THE KITCHEN, LAUNDRY ROOM, MAIN ENTRY HALL AND SECOND FLOOR ENSUITE BATHROOM.
