Accessory Structures

Expand Your Home Seamlessly. From guest houses to garage conversions and pool houses, a well-designed addition structure or ADU, should feel like a natural extension of your home, not an add-on.

The most successful projects are thoughtfully planned from the start: designed to match your home, built with local zoning, lot constraints, and approvals in mind, configured for privacy, access, and long-term flexibility, and finished to the same standard as your primary residence.

Yes. Many homeowners choose to incorporate bathrooms, kitchenettes, wet bars, laundry areas, or even full kitchens into their accessory structures. Local zoning regulations, utility connections, and the intended building use will heavily influence the features we can include. During the planning phase, our team evaluates requirements and designs a space that aligns with both your goals and municipal guidelines.

 

Many communities allow accessory structures, but the actual regulations vary significantly between municipalities.

Our in-house architects and permitting specialists review local ordinances early in the process and prepare the documentation needed for approvals, including setbacks, height restrictions, lot coverage, square footage, and allowable use.
