What Type of ADU is Right for You?
Thinking about building an ADU but not sure which option is the best fit? Here’s a breakdown of the different types of ADUs you can consider, depending on your needs and property:
1️⃣ Detached ADU
A standalone unit separate from the main home, typically built in the backyard. This option offers the most privacy and flexibility for rental income or extended family living.
2️⃣ Attached ADU
Built as an extension of the main home, this type of ADU shares at least one wall with the primary residence. It offers proximity while still being a fully independent living space.
3️⃣ Interior Conversion ADU
This type involves converting part of your existing home’s interior—like a basement or attic—into a fully functioning ADU. It’s a great option if you don’t have space for new construction but want to maximize what you already have!
4️⃣ Attached Garage Conversion ADU
Transform your attached garage into a livable space. Since it’s already connected to the house, this conversion can be a cost-effective way to add more living space.
5️⃣ Detached Garage Conversion ADU
Convert your detached garage into a separate ADU. This is perfect if you want a fully independent rental unit or guest space, without having to build a new structure from scratch.
6️⃣ Attached to Existing Garage ADU
Add onto your existing garage by building an ADU either above or alongside it. This maximizes your available space while preserving the garage for its original purpose.
Whether you’re looking for privacy, rental income, or additional space for family, there’s an ADU option that’s perfect for you! Reach out to SoCal ADU Firm to explore which type of ADU best fits your property and goals.
