Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)

Create more living space, generate rental income, or build a home for family - all on your existing property. We design and build custom modular ADUs throughout North Carolina and South Carolina.

What is an ADU?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a smaller, independent home built on the same property as a primary residence. Often referred to as backyard homes, in-law suites, granny flats, guest houses, or carriage houses, ADUs provide complete living spaces with a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living area.

Whether you're looking to house aging parents, create a private space for adult children, generate rental income, or simply add flexible living space, an ADU offers a practical solution without purchasing another property.

Is an ADU Right for My Property?

Not every property qualifies

The ability to build depends on factors including:

  • Local zoning regulations

  • Property size

  • Utility availability

  • Septic or sewer capacity

  • Setback requirements

  • HOA restrictions

Our team helps evaluate your property before the design process begins so you understand what's possible.
