This East York single-family home was converted from a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with an unfinished basement into a modern triplex featuring two above-grade units and a fully finished basement unit, each with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Originally planned as a duplex, this project was changed to a triplex during construction when the owners secured permits for an additional basement unit.

This conversion required the existing home to be fully gutted and many of the existing structural elements had to be strengthened, reinforced, or reengineered. This allowed us to update other out-dated systems throughout the structure including electrical wiring, plumbing infrastructure and a brand new HVAC system. By updating the core infrastructure, we are not only meeting today’s building code requirements but also providing greater energy efficiency, safety and comfort.

Plexcon Construction is currently in the process of converting a 60 year old detached home into a brand-new duplex. Our team will completely demolish the interior to make way for the new layouts and structurally reinforce the property to last for years to come. The conversion results in two completely independent, private residences, each designed with renters in mind.

Unit 1: Lower Level Suite A bright and modern self-contained suite located on the lower level. This unit features a private entrance, a full contemporary kitchen, a comfortable bedroom, and a full bathroom. With its own in-suite laundry, this space provides complete autonomy and is perfect for a single professional or couple.

Unit 2: Main & Upper Level Residence This expansive two-story unit offers a spacious and family-friendly layout.

• Ground Floor: An open-concept living and dining area creates a welcoming and versatile space for relaxation and entertaining.

• Second Floor: The private quarters include three generous bedrooms and a full bathroom.

Key Features & Plexcon Standards:

• Complete Utility Separation: Each unit is individually metered for hydro and equipped with its own high-efficiency heat pump for personalized heating and cooling, ensuring fair and independent utility management.

• In-Suite Convenience: Both units contain their own dedicated laundry facilities, eliminating the need for shared amenities.

• Enhanced Safety & Privacy: True to Plexcon’s commitment to quality, the partition between units is constructed with fire-separated insulation for superior safety and resilient channels to drastically minimize sound transfer, creating a quiet and peaceful environment for all residents.

This in-progress build exemplifies Plexcon’s expertise in creating valuable, code-compliant, and highly desirable multi-unit dwellings that meet the growing demand for urban housing.
