At SFBay ADU, our client approached us looking to convert their underutilized garage space into additional living space that could accommodate their growing family. After reviewing their needs and preferences, we designed and constructed an impressive two-bedroom, one-bath ADU that utilized every square inch of their current garage space efficiently.

Beginning by creating an open plan living area combining kitchen, dining and living areas into one space for maximum use of available space and creating an inviting living area, our bedrooms were also designed with plenty of storage and natural lighting in mind for optimal use of their available spaces.
