About This Plan

This 576 sq ft one-bedroom ADU is designed to sit above an existing garage, making use of vertical space rather than expanding the building footprint outward. The separate bedroom provides a private sleeping area, while the full bathroom and in-unit washer and dryer add everyday convenience. A balcony provides outdoor space above the garage, creating an additional place to relax

At 24' × 24', this plan is organized around a compact square garage footprint. The flat roof gives the exterior a clean, contemporary appearance, while the above-garage arrangement offers an alternative to a detached ground-level ADU.
