P1 Revision Loop Test

Garden suites in Toronto

Garden suites are detached secondary homes in rear yards, permitted city-wide in Toronto since 2022, and they can reach two storeys and about 60 square metres of footprint depending on lot conditions. For example, a homeowner adding a one-bedroom garden suite behind an east-end Toronto semi might budget approximately $400,000 for construction, though actual costs vary with design and site conditions.

Note that Toronto's rules require a minimum separation between a garden suite and the main building on the lot, typically at least 5 metres, so confirm your rear yard depth with the City before designing.

This paragraph is deliberately long-winded, repetitive, and in need of a trim so the revision worker has something obvious to fix, restructure, and tighten during this end-to-end verification run of the review gate revision loop.
