what is a granny flat? (accessory dwelling unit-adu)

Usually designed for one or two persons, a granny flat is a self-contained, living area usually located on the property of a single-family home. A granny flat can be attached or detached to the main dwelling. It is sometimes called a granny flat because it is a popular way for families to accommodate aging parents, as well as, provide additional rental income. 
In the building industry, the granny flat is most often known as an accessory apartment or accessory dwelling unit (ADU). Other terms include granny pod, mother-in-law unit, in-law apartment, bonus unit, etc... you get the idea.

Rancho san diego custom kitchen remodel

With outdated cabinets and a layout that limited the use of the space, this Rancho San Diego home was in need of a proper kitchen renovation/remodel.  From Design to Build, the So Cal team was able to transform this kitchen and bring the Client's vision to life with brand new cabinets, countertops, and Viking & SubZero appliances.  So Cal also reframed most of the existing walls and upgraded the plumbing, electrical, and flooring.

ada / Live in place

We have built many homes specializing in senior care and we utilize that experience to help you make your home ADA friendly.  Many Americans that choose to age in place, are preparing their homes for the future by: providing stylish access ramps, widening hallways and door ways, exchanging bathtubs for walk in tubs or easy access showers, installing grab bars, elevators, or stair lift systems.  We can help you with any feature needed, to ensure your home is ADA friendly, so you can comfortably age in place.
