THE ADU HOMES

DIFFERENCE

A carriage home offers the opportunity to keep your garage while adding living space above it. Similar to a garage conversion, a studio or one bedroom home can be built on top of the existing garage depending on the size and condition of the garage and your needs. 

It often makes sense to demolish the existing garage and build a new garage and ADU on top. 

New construction ADUs are available in studio, one and two bedroom floor plans. Our carriage units range from 400 sf to 600 sf and are accessed by an exterior staircase.

 Construction Costs Start at $250,000

Our studio homes are the perfect option where the build-able area on the lot is limited. These detached buildings on your lot provide for open, flexible living space with a kitchen and bathroom. 

This floor plan is a great fit for a variety of uses such as a small home, guest house, work space, pool house or recreation room. 

Our studio plans range from 300 sf to 500 sf. 

 Construction Costs Start at $175,000

OUR UNIQUE PROCESS

Our one bedroom plan is ideal for someone who is looking for a relatively small home but wants a defined bedroom area. 

The footprint of this floor plan is still relatively small, so it fits well on lots that have limited area or where the homeowner desires to preserve  yard space.

Our one bedroom plans range from 400 sf to 700 sf. 

Construction Costs Start at $185,000

OUR PRE-DESIGNED ADU HOMES

We offer several two bedroom plans. Our single story floor plan provides an open living and kitchen area with two bedrooms and one or two bathrooms. This set up is perfect for the homeowner who requires a little more space and appreciates the benefits of single level living. 

We also have a several  of 2-story two bedroom, two bathroom floor plans. These ADUs typically  have a smaller footprint than the single story plan and work well when lot area is limited. 

Our two bedroom plans range from 700 sf to 1,000 sf. 

Construction costs start at $250,000

OVER 20 GREAT FLOOR PLANS OPTIONS

Our largest floor plan includes 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Our three-bedroom plan offers an open floor plan on the first floor with three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the second floor. 

We also have a single-story 1,200 sf plan for homeowners with larger lots that want single-level living.

These homes are  great choices for the owner that needs more space or for the investor that wants to maximize rental income. 

These floor plans are approximately 1,200 sf. 

Construction costs start at $325,000

We analyze your property location using our sophisticated analysis tools to determine if your lot can accommodate an ADU and which one of our pre-designed floor plans will work best based on your requirements. 

If an ADU is possible, we will create a 3D representation for you to get a clear picture of how it will fit your needs. We then create a preliminary budget and project timeline to discuss with you.

We schedule your consultation via Zoom to show you which of our ADU designs we recommend based upon your specific property and your goals.  We will share the initial timelines for each stage of the project and provide a very realistic expectation for completion. 

Any customization you need can be discussed and if you like what you see we can provide a preliminary proposal within 1-2 days.

After our initial consultation we can schedule a site visit  to assess the property in person and to confirm our original site assumptions and gather more information as needed. Based on our site visit and any additional client input, we can update the final proposal. 

After the site visit is completed, we write up the final proposal for your review. After the proposal is signed, our design team will start work on your ADU plans. Our Price and Build guarantee will be included to ensure you have peace of mind and confidence you will get exactly what you expect. At that point you will have access to our mobile app to keep you updated throughout the entire design, permitting and construction process. 

Permit approval with the city is next. We typically get your permit approved within 60 to 90 days which is much faster than industry standard. We get it done much faster than other companies because our ADU design plans have been approved many times before. 

This is one of the reasons why we can provide an accurate build time guarantee and price guarantee others can't.

Once your ADU plans are approved by the city, you can sign the construction contract that details the guaranteed construction cost and construction timeline and we start building your ADU. Because of our streamlined in-house approach we can typically build your new ADU in 3 to 5 months depending on the property and the ADU plan type. 

On average we are 30% faster than other ADU companies because of our streamlined design and construction process.
