For a parent or relative
Nearby does not have to mean sharing every routine.
A separate bedroom, bath, kitchen and living space support independence while keeping family within reach.

Read the property
The right ADU is more than a floor plan.
The household, placement and relationship to the main home help narrow the model direction.
01
Household
Who will live here
Room count, bathroom count and daily privacy should begin with the people using the home.
02
Placement
Main home and garden
Distance, windows, outdoor space and sightlines shape how independent the ADU feels.
03
Property
Available area and access
Width, grade, trees and existing structures help determine which footprint is worth exploring.
04
Orientation
Light, views and arrival
The front door, window direction and path from the main home shape the everyday experience.
ADU questions
Understand the model before discussing the property.
The useful first answers are about room count, plan direction and the information needed to begin.
01 Which ADU model should I compare first?
Start with the room program. Compare 1A450 and 1B580 for one bedroom; compare 2B650 and 2B800 for two bedrooms. The second decision is whether one or two bathrooms better suits the household.
02 Do the residential plans show a kitchen and bathroom?
Yes. The residential source models are presented with kitchen-living space and at least one bathroom. The exact included components are confirmed for the individual project.
03 Can I request changes to a source model?
The model is a disciplined starting point. Requested changes can be discussed, but no change is assumed until the final configuration is confirmed.
04 What property information is useful for the first conversation?
City or ZIP, property photos, approximate available area, known access conditions and who the ADU is intended for are enough to begin.
05 Are the lifestyle images and floor plans final?
No. Lifestyle imagery is illustrative, and the plans are concept references for comparing source models.
