With Greenstone’s craftsmanship, every guest suite blends seamlessly with your property’s architecture and enhances its charm and value.

Rental Income Suite – A Smart Investment for Steady Returns
A Toronto garden suite is more than just extra space — it’s a source of reliable income. Converting your backyard into a rental-ready suite helps homeowners earn consistent revenue while increasing overall property value.
Greenstone helps you plan every detail, ensuring compliance with Toronto’s secondary dwelling and zoning requirements. We integrate efficient layouts, modern insulation, and high-quality materials that attract tenants and keep maintenance costs low.
Benefits include:
Monthly rental income that supports your mortgage
Property appreciation over time
Flexible use — short-term or long-term rentals
For homeowners in the GTA, a backyard suite is one of the smartest and most sustainable investment opportunities today.
Independent Space for Adult Children – Freedom Close to Home
As your family grows, so do their needs. A garden suite offers the perfect middle ground between independence and connection. It provides adult children or young professionals with their own self-contained living space while keeping them close to family.
This flexible living option supports privacy, growth, and transition — without the high costs of renting elsewhere in Toronto.
Greenstone designs suites that include:
Full kitchen, bathroom, and living zones for self-sufficiency
Private entryways for independence
Shared utilities for affordability
Smart design for comfort and modern living
It’s a future-ready solution that gives everyone more breathing room — both physically and emotionally.
Home Office or Studio – Work, Create, or Consult from Home
The work-from-home era has reshaped modern living. A garden suite in Toronto can serve as a quiet and inspiring workspace — free from daily household distractions. Whether you’re a creative, consultant, or entrepreneur, it gives you the freedom to work in peace while staying close to home.
Greenstone’s team can customise the suite into a bright office, design studio, wellness space, or client meeting zone — complete with sound insulation, natural lighting, and energy-efficient systems.
Perfect for:
Freelancers and consultants
Health and wellness professionals
Artists and creators needing personal studios
Remote employees seeking privacy and productivity
A well-designed backyard suite doesn’t just boost focus — it enhances work-life balance and adds long-term value to your property.
Elderly Parent Suite – Comfortable, Safe, and Dignified Living
Garden suites are becoming an essential housing solution for multigenerational families in Toronto. They allow aging parents to live independently while staying close to loved ones — providing both peace of mind and emotional connection.
Greenstone builds secondary dwelling units designed with safety, comfort, and accessibility in mind.
Our senior-friendly designs include:
Step-free entrances and wider doorways
Accessible bathrooms and ergonomic layouts
Emergency support features
Warm, inviting interiors for a homelike feel
It’s a compassionate solution that promotes independence, family connection, and long-term housing flexibility.
