This mother is building herself an ADU in her daughter’s back yard in San Marcos. With a few design changes, we took one of our standard plans and turned it into a 870sqft, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom custom plan. We made the guest bathroom larger and the doors wider to accommodate a wheelchair. The client also wanted to make sure she had a nice view into what will be a shared courtyard between the two homes.

Our quick take on San Marcos: Moderately ADU-Friendly
SnapADU has permitted or is in the process of permitting numerous projects within the city, and we know the city's regulations and processes very well. One unusual requirement in San Marcos is that ADUs generally cannot be in the front yard (though SB-897 passed Aug 2022 will limit city's ability to enforce this). They also require a soils report for ADUs >500 sqft. San Marcos allows for digital submissions. Turnaround times at the city are moderate.
