Located in Toronto's established Davisville neighbourhood, the Manor Road project began with a conversation that Douglas Reid Renovations Inc. has had with many homeowners over the years. The house was in a neighbourhood the family loved, but as their children grew older, the home no longer provided the space or functionality they needed. Rather than leaving the community they had grown to love, they chose to invest in their home and create a space designed around the next chapter of their family's life.

​

From the earliest planning stages, Douglas Reid Renovations Inc. provided a complete Design Build service, guiding the homeowners through every step of the project. We coordinated the architectural design, managed all permit applications and approvals, and delivered a seamless turnkey renovation from concept through final completion. By having one experienced team manage the entire process, the homeowners were able to make informed decisions with confidence while enjoying a renovation experience built on transparent pricing, exceptional communication, and a genuinely client-focused approach.

​

The transformation centred around a substantial two-storey rear addition combined with a fully finished basement, creating the additional living space the family needed without sacrificing the character of the original semi-detached home. Every square foot was carefully planned to improve the home's flow while allowing natural light to reach deep into the interior.

Because the home occupies a prominent corner lot, the architectural design presented a unique opportunity. Rather than focusing exclusively on the front façade, every elevation was carefully considered so the home would be equally attractive from every angle. This thoughtful approach created a residence that feels balanced, welcoming, and perfectly integrated into the surrounding neighbourhood.

At the centre of the renovation is a bright, open-concept kitchen featuring beautifully custom modified IKEA millwork, carefully designed to deliver exceptional functionality while maintaining a refined, contemporary appearance. Large Inline Fiberglass Windows & Doors fill the living spaces with natural light, strengthening the connection between the interior and the backyard while creating an inviting environment for everyday family life and entertaining.

​

Manor Road demonstrates that successful home additions are about much more than increasing square footage. They are about understanding how a family lives, solving practical challenges through thoughtful design, and delivering a home that continues to evolve with its owners. Through careful planning, quality craftsmanship, and professional project management, Douglas Reid Renovations Inc. helped transform a much-loved house into a home ready for generations of new memories.
