Introduction

The trend of home conversions, especially garage-to-Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), is on the rise. Homeowners are seeking innovative ways to maximize their property’s potential, and GatherADU's 400 sqft floorplan offers an ideal solution. Whether you’re looking to create a rental space, a guest house, or a personal retreat, this floorplan is designed to deliver both functionality and style.

The Rise of ADUs

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are secondary housing units on a single-family residential lot. They can be a small house in the backyard, a converted basement, or even a transformed garage. The benefits of ADUs for homeowners are numerous:

  • Increased Property Value: ADUs add significant value to your property.
  • Additional Income: Rent out the ADU for extra income.
  • Flexible Living Solutions: Perfect for multi-generational living or hosting guests.

Recent market analysis highlights the growing demand for additional living spaces within homes. As cities become denser and housing costs rise, ADUs offer a practical and efficient solution to these challenges. Get a quote for your ADU project

Garage Conversions: A Popular Choice

Garage conversions are among the most popular types of ADUs. Here’s why:

  • Cost-Effectiveness: Converting an existing structure is generally more affordable than building a new one.
  • Increased Property Value: A well-designed ADU can boost your property’s market value.
  • Efficient Use of Space: Garages often go unused or underutilized. Converting them into an ADU makes better use of this space.
