At Huskies Design & Build, we specialize in creating Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) that add value, functionality, and flexibility to your property. With our expertise in design, permitting, and construction, we simplify the process of building ADUs, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish. Whether you’re looking to create additional living space, generate rental income, or accommodate family members, we’re here to bring your ADU vision to life.

What is an ADU?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a secondary, self-contained residential unit located on the same lot as a primary home. Often called a granny flat, in-law suite, or backyard cottage, an ADU includes its own kitchen, bathroom, and living space, providing a fully functional home within your property. ADUs are a smart solution for maximizing space, increasing property value, and addressing housing needs.

Types of ADUs

ADUs come in all shapes and sizes, designed to fit your property and lifestyle needs. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular types:

Detached ADU

  • A fully independent structure, separate from the main house.

  • Homeowners with spacious lots who want privacy and versatility.

  • Complete design freedom, private entrance, and independent utilities.

  • Picture a backyard guest house or a stylish rental unit that pays for itself.

Attached ADU

  • Built as an addition to your home or cleverly integrated into the existing structure.

  • Properties with limited yard space or those who value close connections between units.

  • Shares a wall with your home, offering convenience and cost savings, with the option to share utilities.

  • Think of a cozy apartment seamlessly added to your home—perfect for family or tenants.

Garage Conversion

  • Transforms your underused garage into a fully functional living space.

  • Budget-savvy homeowners looking to maximize existing space.

  • Quick and cost-effective, as it utilizes the current structure, saving on materials and time.

  • Envision turning your two-car garage into a chic studio or a compact one-bedroom retreat.

Detached ADU + JADU

  • A winning combo of a standalone Detached ADU and a Junior ADU within your main home.

  • Those looking to increase rental income or house extended family with flexible living arrangements.

  • The Detached ADU offers complete independence, while the smaller JADU (up to 500 sq ft) provides a functional, cozy space with shared utilities.

  • Imagine a backyard cottage for guests and a converted room with a kitchenette in your main house—double the functionality, double the value.

Why an ADU Is the Ultimate Upgrade?

Building an ADU isn’t just about adding space—it’s about unlocking new possibilities for your property.
Here’s why homeowners love them:

Increased Property Value

An ADU is more than just an addition—it’s a long-term investment. Adding one can significantly boost your home’s resale value, making it a smart financial move.

Rental Income

Turn your ADU into a steady source of passive income by renting it out. It’s an easy way to achieve financial stability while maximizing your property’s potential.

Multi-Generational Living

Create a comfortable, private space for elderly parents, adult children, or extended family. ADUs make multi-generational living seamless without compromising privacy.

Maximized Use of Space

Transform underutilized areas like garages or large backyards into functional, livable spaces. ADUs make every square foot of your property work harder for you.

Sustainability

ADUs are an eco-friendly housing solution. By sharing land and utilities, they reduce environmental impact while providing efficient and affordable living spaces.

Flexibility

An ADU can be anything you need it to be—a guesthouse, home office, gym, studio, or long-term living space. The possibilities are truly endless!
