Room for Grandpa from Erin Lynett
Room for Grandpa

A dad and his 2 sons live in this ranch house, but they need room for Grandpa to move in.

DESIGN SOLUTION: A separate ADU unit is added to the back of the house. It can be accessed directly from outside from a porch behind the garage or from a new shared living room. The ADU has a bedroom, bathroom, laundry, and kitchenette, so Grandpa has his own space, but he also has access to the main house and kitchen to hang out with his son and grandsons.
