One Story

This tiny home in San Diego is a 498 square foot accessory dwelling unit (ADU) with one bedroom and one bath, plus a full kitchen and laundry. The homeowner opted to customize our build ready 1BR/1BA square ADU floor plan, to accommodate a number of features her mother wanted to include in her new ADU tiny home. A larger tiled shower and beautiful front facing windows make up a few of these customizations in the granny flat.

The ADU was built for the homeowner’s aging mother, who wanted to move closer in a multi generational living setup. The beautiful rose bushes framing the home will allow privacy for the ADU, while also complimenting the siding exterior.
