Addison Cres
Don Mills
A dated corner-lot house in Don Mills stripped back entirely and rebuilt as a light-filled family home — with press coverage to match.
Back to all ProjectsCorner lots are an opportunity and a problem at the same time. More exposure, more light, more street presence — and more of the house visible to everyone who walks past. This Addison Crescent home had all of the opportunity and none of the execution: a highly unusual, deeply dated interior sitting on one of the better lots in Banbury–Don Mills.
Dovetail took the house back to the frame, lowered the basement to gain full-height living space below grade, and rebuilt the interior around a completely new architectural vision from BAU AND ĆOS STUDIO, who led both the architecture and the interior design. The result is a house that reads as open, calm and modern, with light moving through it in a way the original never allowed.
