If you are on the market for a new home, you may have come across the term Zero Lot Line (ZLL) home.
What is a zero lot line home and what effect does it have on your new home search? Traditional single family homes have two side yards joining your front and back yards– one on each side of your house. Whereas zero lot line homes have only one side yard; the other side of your house is built right against your property line.
Zero lot line homes are similar to traditional single family homes in many ways. Coventry offers a variety of well thought-out floorplans in both our Prestige and Pinnacle Interior Specification. Of if you prefer, you can customize your Coventry ZLL home to suit your needs, just as you would any of the other homes we build. In addition, you can build a ZLL home with a front attached garage or a laned home with rear detached garage through our sister company Impact Homes (Visit their website here).
With similarities also come differences. First, as we mentioned above, you only have one side yard instead of two. However that means less lawn maintenance! In your home’s basement, the furnace and mechanical room are required to be on the side of the property with access to your yard. Lastly, there are specific do’s and don’ts for window placement. We don’t want any awkward stare downs happening between neighbours.
So, what benefit does a zero lot line home have for you? One of the biggest benefits of purchasing a zero lot line home is value. As a narrower lot is required for your home, a cost savings can be incurred here allowing you to either save money or make your original budget go further!

As October arrives, it's not just the spooky season of Halloween—it’s also the perfect time to make sure your home is ready for the colder months ahead. While skeletons and ghosts may be fun to decorate with, the real nightmare comes when winter sneaks up on you with unexpected home repairs!
Having an organized home not only makes it easier to keep clean, but it also increases productivity and improves your mood. With a little planning and creativity, it’s easy to incorporate home space saving solutions into your décor.
When buying a home, choosing to build your own home can ensure you get exactly what you want in a home. However, there are several factors to consider when choosing the right quality house builder in Edmonton to construct your new home.
