Detached Accessory Dwelling Units
A standalone home for the rest of your life.
The scope, plainly.
A DADU — detached accessory dwelling unit — is a freestanding second home on your property. Unlike an attached ADU, it sits apart from the main house with its own foundation, roofline, and outdoor approach. That separation is what makes them so versatile: privacy for an aging parent, rental potential, a dedicated studio, or simply more livable space for a growing family.
