The scan

- Semi-Detached
What is standing, and what is permitted
A house stands here and the by-law allows more. Below is what is already built, the as-of-right envelope on the same lot, and the gap between them, which is the part you are buying. It is a starting envelope, not a massing study.

Zone
No zoning resolved on this parcel, so there is no envelope to quote. A TESA scan resolves the zone from the by-law directly.
Add a garden suite
By-law 849-2025 s.11A garden suite is a separate allowance, not counted into the main building's floor area. Its own cap is 60 m² over one storey or 120 m² over two. With a suite on the lot, coverage follows one of two by-law options, and which one is the applicant's choice.
Garden suite: 120 m² (1,292 ft²), 6.3 m tall, 7.5 m from the main building
Option A · all buildings at 45%
- Main building
- 57 m² (613 ft²)
- Main plus suite
- 177 m² (1,905 ft²)
Option B · main on the overlay, ancillary at 20%
- Main building
- Not available for this lot
- Main plus suite
- Not available for this lot
The main building has no coverage cap under Option B here, so its size is set by setbacks rather than a percentage.
At this lot size the suite would not stay smaller than the main building, which the by-law requires. The suite would need to shrink.
What binds it
On or beside the heritage registerRestricts the envelope
A register property sits on this lot or right beside it. The register covers both listed and designated properties, and they are not the same: designation controls demolition, listing buys a delay. Confirm which, and confirm it is this address, before pricing a teardown.

Demolition is controlled here. The play is renovation, or added units inside the existing form.
