Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)

Your Property. Your Vision. Designed with Architectural Excellence.

At Rodenhiser Architects, we specialize in designing ADUs that seamlessly integrate with your home's existing architecture. With a focus on aesthetics, functionality, and compliance, we transform your vision into a thoughtfully crafted space that enhances both form and function.

What is an ADU?

ADUs—also called granny flats, backyard cottages, or in-law apartments—are self-contained living spaces built on the same lot as your primary residence. Whether it's a detached retreat, a converted garage, or a stylish basement apartment, an ADU offers increased versatility and value while complementing your home's overall design.

Why Design an ADU?

  • Multigenerational Living: Create private, independent spaces for family members with a cohesive architectural design.
  • Rental Income: Unlock the potential of your property with an aesthetically pleasing and functional rental unit.
  • Work-from-Home Solutions: Design a private, professional-grade home office that enhances productivity.
  • Lifestyle Upgrades: Add a custom-designed wellness studio, guest suite, or entertainment space.
  • Enhance Property Value: A well-integrated ADU enhances your home's appeal and long-term value.

Navigating Massachusetts ADU Regulations

Recent updates to state laws make it easier to build ADUs, but zoning laws and permits can be complex. That's where Rodenhiser Architects comes in. Our team—leveraging the zoning expertise of New Age Realty—analyzes local and state regulations to create designs that are both compliant and optimized for your needs.
