Most properties in Canada have a ton of space and as housing prices soar, cities have come up with innovative ways to address affordability. Coach or laneway homes are one of the solutions. What are they you ask? A laneway home is a smaller, detached home located where the garage would normally go on a single-family lot.

Laneway houses contribute to the overall sustainability of the city. They give people more opportunities to live close to where they work, shop, and play, and they make the city's urban lanes more green, liveable, and safe. This laneway home was designed by Crane Garden Buildingsgarden and landscaping supplies. It is intended to be a beautiful spot from which you can overlook your garden. But, you could easily rent out the space as well. Though, let's be honest, you might just decide to keep it for yourself! 

If your dream is a white picket fence and porch overlooking the garden, this is an inexpensive way to fulfill your wish.

From this angle, you can see how seamlessly the porch and interior spaces join. And, we love that green-grey exterior paint.

Classic decor was a great choice for this space. It's easy to see how entertaining could be both comfortable and classy here.

Then again, this perfect blend of hardwood floor, white wall, and character ceiling is very flexible.

You could put country decor, modern decor, eclectic decor, and several other styles in here. We think that these 10 gorgeous living rooms would look amazing in here. 

Well, this is one way to take a simple water feature and turn it into a quaint, cottage-like space.
