      It’s not a box in the sky like a condo.

      It’s ground-oriented, and it's two storeys.

      However, it’s neither a regular detached home nor a duplex and a townhouse.

      It’s a coach house in the backyard of a bigger house. This type of home can also be called a laneway house or a carriage home.

      A 758-square-foot coach house is under construction at 2252 Grant Street in the East Vancouver neighbourhood of Grandview-Woodland.

      It’s also for sale at $899,880.

      Here’s what listing agent RE/MAX Crest Realty has to say about the property:
