Tiny Home in San Diego for Mom
Appleton Street, San Diego, CA 92117
Homeowner Story: Bring aging family closer
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 blue exterior.

The City of San Diego ADU Guide
SnapADU has built and is in the process of building dozens of granny flat projects within the City of San Diego. As such, we know the city’s ADU regulations and processes very well. Turnaround times at the city are drastically improving, with permitting taking 3-5 months in most cases (down from 8-10 months a year ago).
Of note, San Diego promotes the building of more ADUs through the affordable ADU bonus program. Some of San Diego is in the coastal zone, which will add additional time and cost to the permitting process for granny flats.
