Basics of 4 Bedroom ADU Plans
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), also known as granny flats or in-law suites, have become a sought-after housing option in recent years. Among the various configurations, 4 Bedroom (4BR) ADU plans are particularly appealing due to their expansive layout and versatility. These standalone living spaces, located on the same lot as a single-family or multifamily home, typically comprise four bedrooms, a living area, a kitchen, and a bathroom. This layout provides substantial space, making it an ideal choice for larger families, groups of renters, or guests.
The charm of 4BR ADUs lies in their ability to offer a balance of privacy and proximity to the main house. They can serve a wide range of purposes, from accommodating extended family members to generating significant rental income, making them a multifaceted and valuable asset to any property. The design of 4BR ADUs can be tailored to mirror the aesthetic of the main house or to meet the unique needs of the occupants, making them a truly customizable and practical housing solution.
4BR ADU Sizes
When planning a 4 Bedroom Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), understanding the size parameters is essential. In California, the law allows for an ADU of up to 1200 sqft on most residential properties, subject to a 4′ setback on the sides and rear.
The size of a four-bedroom ADU can be tailored based on your specific needs and preferences. The minimum square footage for a functional four-bedroom ADU is typically around 1100 sqft, though we suggest taking the full 1200 sqft if you’d like four bedrooms.
A two-story plan can take advantage of views and fit into tight footprints. A 1200 sqft 4BR plan provides ample living space, making it an excellent choice for those seeking to house a family or perhaps students in a college area. Always remember to consider cost factors when planning your 4BR ADU to ensure it aligns with your goals and budget.
