What Is an ADU?
An ADU is a fully self-contained living space located on the same property as a primary home.
It can include:
- A kitchen or kitchenette
- Bathroom and living area
- Separate entrance
- Independent utilities (in some cases)
ADUs can be built as detached units, attached additions, or converted spaces within your existing home.
Designed for Flexibility and Long-Term Use
One of the biggest advantages of an ADU is its versatility.
You can use your ADU as:
- A rental unit for additional income
- Housing for extended family
- A private guest space
- A home office or studio
- A long-term investment property
We design ADUs that adapt to your needs over time, so the space continues to provide value well into the future.
ADUs as an Investment Opportunity
With housing demand increasing across Salt Lake City, ADUs offer a practical way to generate income while increasing property value.
Benefits include:
- Monthly rental income potential
- Increased resale value
- Better use of available land
- Lower cost compared to purchasing a second property
We help you design an ADU that balances cost, functionality, and long-term return.
