17th Street

A sleek, modern residence featuring a basement second suite with separate side entry. Despite the narrow 2-foot side setbacks, the design incorporates a 4-foot setback at the walkout level to provide basement access, while maintaining a 2-foot setback on the second floor. In compliance with code requirements, exterior walls within 4 feet of the property line are constructed with a 45-minute fire-resistance rating.

One of the main challenges of this project was the removal of a city-owned tree located in front of the property. Retaining the tree would have resulted in a significantly narrower driveway, so the owner decided to proceed with obtaining a permit from Urban Forestry for its removal. This process took approximately four months to complete.

One of the main challenges of this project was meeting the client's desire to maximize interior space and ceiling heights while avoiding the need for a Committee of Adjustment (CofA) application. Additionally, the client requested a modern architectural style combined with a pitched (sloped) roof, which required careful design coordination to balance aesthetic goals with zoning and height limitations.

This project was one of the most unique in its character, with a highly engaged client who had a clear vision and deep understanding of their needs. We held several meetings to refine the spatial layout, and the main elevations underwent a few thoughtful revisions to achieve a well-balanced and cohesive final design.
