A JADU, or Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit, is a small living space typically created within the existing footprint of a single-family home. It often involves converting an area such as a basement, attic, or even a large master bedroom into a separate living unit. A Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit or JADU is a unit that is no more than 500 square feet in size and contained entirely within a single-family residence located in a single-family zone. A JADU may include separate sanitation facilities or may share sanitation facilities with the existing structure. The JADU or single-family residence must be owner-occupied. JADUs are designed to provide affordable and flexible housing options, often featuring amenities like a kitchenette and bathroom. They offer a creative solution for many families looking to expand their Multi-Generational living opportunities.
