Unique Houses of Waterloo Region

Interesting that the back of the house is open to the trail.  Not everyone would be comfortable with that, although I’m sure that the balcony gets more use than the limited yard space.

I don’t think the house has much property on the trail side (or any side, for that matter). It’s only 20m from the wall of the house to the concrete path associated with the apartments on Esson St. so it’s entirely possible the house is built almost up to the boundary of the trail right-of-way (former railway property).

I wonder how much they had to do to get that through zoning?

It's, in fact, built right to the property line. Couldn't find any documents on the approvals for that.

But I did discover that we actually have a thread for this house!
