Loyal Heights ADU

Seattle, Washington

This Seattle home owner desired a more comfortable, homelike place for his mother as an alternative to a retirement home.
By adding a simple extension to the existing garage, a separate but attached unit with excellent south exposure and its own private entry was created.
With jJust enough separation, mom can slip over to the main house without getting wet—win-win for both mom and son.
Mom gets to be close to family and her living expenses lessened; son has mom close and can easily check in on her, has an additional income stream that more than offsets the loan for the construction of the Accessory Dwelling Unit and has increased his property value in the process!
