This 1,000 sq ft two-bedroom, two-bath detached ADU gives occupants plenty of space to live. Each bedroom has its own full bathroom, so privacy isn’t something anyone has to negotiate. In-unit laundry keeps daily routines self-contained, and the open front porch adds usable outdoor space without spilling onto the main property.
At 40' × 25' this plan gives you enough footprint to separate living and sleeping zones without the layout feeling cramped. A combined hip and shed roof keeps the exterior from looking like a plain box, and the open porch adds another useful feature to the building.
