Can you build a coach home on your lot?

Enter your Ontario address and lot dimensions. We check municipal rules, map your buildable rear yard, and show which FastUP™ models fit — with estimated rental income.

For reference only. Lot size, setbacks, house footprint, and model fit are estimates — accuracy depends on survey data and municipal rules. We handle planning, permitting, and architectural work.

Pick your address from the suggestions — we'll look up lot dimensions from MLS or sold records when available.

Confirm your address above — then enter or review lot dimensions.

MyStreetValue Coach Home Wizard is a free public tool at mystreetvalue.ca/coachhome for Ontario homeowners and buyers. Users enter an address and lot dimensions; the engine applies municipal coach-home bylaws (Ottawa Bill 23, Toronto garden suites, etc.), estimates house footprint, and maps rear-yard setbacks. Six FastUP™ coach home models by Solisterra Homes Inc. are evaluated for fit: The Student (282 sqft), The Betty (300), The Coach (400), The Garden House (500), Mid Century (800), and The Megan (1000). All models are FastUP™ designs by Solisterra Homes Inc. Each unit meets or exceeds the National Building Code of Canada and is built for superior thermal protection and energy efficiency. Scout listing pages (MyPropertyScout) and the MyStreetValue homeowner portal embed the same engine via server API — this URL is the standalone public intake. MyStreetValue provides planning, permitting, and architectural services; book a call from results to discuss options.

Coach home questions

What is a coach home in Ontario?

A coach home (also called a garden suite or additional dwelling unit) is a small secondary residence on the same lot as a main house. Ontario Bill 23 allows up to three units on many urban lots. Rules for size, setbacks, and height vary by municipality.

How does the MyStreetValue Coach Home Wizard work?

Enter your Ontario address and lot width and depth. The wizard geocodes your property, applies local coach-home bylaws, estimates your main-house footprint, and shows a lot diagram with setbacks. You see which FastUP™ models fit your rear yard plus estimated monthly rental income.

Which coach home models are available?

MyStreetValue evaluates six FastUP™ designs by Solisterra Homes Inc.: The Student (282 sqft), The Betty (300 sqft), The Coach (400 sqft), The Garden House (500 sqft), Mid Century (800 sqft), The Megan (1000 sqft). All models are FastUP™ designs by Solisterra Homes Inc. Each unit meets or exceeds the National Building Code of Canada and is built for superior thermal protection and energy efficiency.

Can I use this on a Scout listing or my MyStreetValue portal property?

Yes. Scout listing pages load coach-home analysis from the server when MLS lot data is available. The MyStreetValue homeowner portal embeds the same engine from your saved property profile. This /coachhome page is the public standalone tool when you want to check any Ontario address directly.

Does MyStreetValue handle permits and design?

Yes. Estimates on this page are for reference; MyStreetValue handles planning, permitting, and architectural work. Submit the book-a-call form after your results to discuss your lot and model options.

Which cities does the wizard support?

The engine includes confirmed rules for Ottawa, Toronto, Hamilton, and Niagara Falls, with provincial defaults for other Ontario municipalities. Always confirm final eligibility with your city before building.

Embed surfaces: Scout listings and the MyStreetValue homeowner portal use the same coach-home engine via server API — no separate login required on those pages when lot data is on file.
