What Is a Laneway Home?
A Second Home on Your Own Lot
A laneway house (or coach house) is a small, self-contained home built at the back of your existing property, typically facing the lane. It's one of the smartest ways for Vancouver homeowners to add long-term rental income, create space for aging parents or adult kids, and increase the value of their lot — all without selling or subdividing.
Vivanta Constructions designs and builds laneway homes end to end — and we price it the honest way, with a fixed, itemized quote before we start. See our per-square-foot pricing →
