Beaver Homes & Cottages Launches New Secondary Suite Collection to Address Canada’s Growing Demand for Affordable Housing Solutions

ST. JACOBS, ONTARIO – Oct. 30, 2024 – Home Hardware Stores Limited is pleased to announce the launch of the Beaver Homes & Cottages Secondary Suite Collection. This innovative collection provides homeowners with a customizable solution to create affordable secondary living spaces, responding to the ongoing housing shortages and affordability challenges facing Canadians.

As demand for additional housing solutions continues to rise, Beaver Homes & Cottages has developed the Secondary Suite Collection to provide homeowners a cost-effective way to expand their living space, whether for generating additional rental income, accommodating multigenerational families, or creating a backyard office or studio. With over thirty standard models, each suite is fully customizable, allowing homeowners to tailor designs to their needs. This launch aligns with new government measures encouraging the construction of secondary suites, making it easier for Canadians to contribute to the country's housing stock.

“With over 130 Beaver Homes & Cottages locations across Canada offering our new Secondary Suite Collection, we are well positioned to support homeowners and contractors in creating additional living spaces that meet their unique needs,” said Keri McMillan, Director of PRO & Sales Marketing, Home Hardware Stores Limited. “Our collection offers affordable and customizable options, making it easier for homeowners to add secondary suites, whether to accommodate family or generate rental income.”
