This project converts a two-story, three-bedroom suburban home into a multi-family dwelling with three apartments. The home is accessible to people with limited mobility. The house, named Recofit, uses a lot of solar energy and consumes very little water. The work will be spread out over a period of time to allow the owner-occupant to limit his initial capital expenditures and use his rental income to complete the renovations.
