Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have become increasingly popular as a solution for housing shortages and maximizing property use. Here’s a summary of the different types of ADUs, each with its unique features:
-
Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU):
- Typically smaller than traditional ADUs, JADUs are converted from existing space within a single-family home, such as a basement or a bedroom.
- Must include a separate entrance and kitchen facilities but can share bathrooms with the primary residence.
- Ideal for homeowners looking to create affordable housing options without extensive construction.
-
Garage Conversion:
- Involves transforming an existing garage into a livable unit.
- Maintains the original structure, making it often more affordable and faster to build than new construction.
- Can serve as a rental unit, guest house, or housing for family members.
-
Custom Detached ADU:
- A completely separate building constructed on the same lot as a primary residence.
- Offers flexibility in design and size, tailored to the homeowner’s needs and preferences.
- Typically includes all necessary amenities, making it suitable for long-term living.

Above Garage ADU:
- Built on top of an existing garage, this type of ADU maximizes space without altering the footprint of the property.
- Provides privacy and independent living while utilizing vertical space efficiently.
- Often designed with a separate entrance to enhance autonomy for occupants.
-
Manufactured ADU:
- These units are factory-built and then transported to the property.
