What is an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)?

Double Line Divider

An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a secondary housing unit on your property, designed to provide extra living space. ADUs can serve as guest houses, home offices, rental units, or in-law suites, giving you flexible living arrangements without needing to move.


At Thomas Scrivner Construction, we specialize in designing and building custom ADUs that match your needs and complement your home's style. Whether you're looking for a compact studio, a detached guest house, or a fully functional living space with a kitchen and bathroom, we have the expertise to make it happen.
