MD Construction Team's Comprehensive Guide to ADUs
What are Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)?
Accessory Dwelling Units, commonly referred to as ADUs, are secondary residential units that exist on the same property as a primary residential dwelling. ADUs can take various forms, including detached structures, attached units, and converted spaces within the primary residence. These versatile living spaces offer homeowners the opportunity to expand their living arrangements without the need for additional land.
Detached ADUs are standalone structures located on the same property as the primary residence. These units can vary in size and design, ranging from small studio apartments to spacious two-bedroom homes. Detached ADUs offer privacy and independence, making them ideal for homeowners seeking additional living space for guests, family members, or rental opportunities.
Detached ADUs
Junior Accessory Dwelling Units, or JADUs, are compact living spaces that are created within the footprint of the primary residence. JADUs often consist of converted garages, basements, or unused rooms within the main house. These smaller units provide a cost-effective solution for homeowners seeking to add supplementary living quarters to their property.
