Backyard cottages differ in size and layout, catering to diverse homeowners needs. A 300 square feet ADU is a small accessory dwelling unit that may suit a young couple that just started out and need an affordable living space. Or, if you wish to accommodate your elderly parents in the comfort vicinity of your primary residence to reduce tedious visits between houses.

In any case, the 300 square feet ADU project by A+ Construction & Remodeling offers an effective floor plan that utilizes the limited space in the most beneficial way.

Careful consideration is required to pick the right type and size of ADU for your property. For instance, some properties are narrow, cramped, or have other structures scattered around them, leaving little suitable place for construction. Otherwise, you may have enough space but not enough money to pay for a larger-scale project. Also, it makes sense to take into account privacy considerations: a detached ADU always has more privacy than an attached one.

A 300 square feet studio ADU boasts the following perks:

1. Efficient use of space;
2. Easy access to all parts of the ADU house;
3. Ability to accommodate enough functional furniture and appliances;
4. Minimalistic design that allows you to keep your area decluttered;
5. Budget-friendliness.

Whether you decide to create a rental unit, a guest house, or a granny flat for your aging loved ones, we hope our studio ADU of 300 sq. ft. will serve as a useful input!

Frequently Asked Questions — FAQ

Do ADU units have a mini-kitchenette or a full-fledged kitchen?

All units are different, so it depends on your preferences, available space, and budget. The law does not regulate this matter, so if you decide to build an ADU with a full-sized kitchen or small kitchenette, a dining area, or a vast living room, you can do it, given you abide by laws and regulations. Otherwise, you won’t be able to obtain building permits.

What are the different types of ADUs?

There are ADUs that you construct from scratch and ADUs you convert from a basement, a garage, or other structures in your backyard. New-construction ADUs are attached and detached ADUs. The second type is conversions and internal ADUs. Typically, all of them have their own separate entrance.

Can I choose custom built-in storage solutions, doors, curtains, or a deck for my ADU?

Sure. If you have your own design and layout in mind or have some special consideration for your ADU style, we’ve got you covered! A+ is ready to create a unique work of art on your property, whether it is a pitched roof, glass door, or specific wall sconces.

Does an ADU building process require landscaping?

It depends on such factors as local regulations and specific property needs (for example, the need for site grading to build a solid foundation). Contact A+ Construction and Remodeling professionals to learn more about what the ADU building process is!
