PROJECT OVERVIEW

This California residential project pairs a new 780-square-foot attached accessory dwelling unit with the conversion of an existing lounge into a 593-square-foot junior accessory dwelling unit. Both components are planned alongside an existing 2,307-square-foot single-family dwelling on a 22,713.2-square-foot parcel. Two occupied levels are represented, and the two identified residential spaces total 2,364 square feet. The documented scope includes floor and site planning, walls, equipment, three stairs, three roof elements, 50 doors, and 40 windows. Because the property lies within a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, the project documentation calls for materials, systems, and construction methods that comply with applicable fire-hazard requirements. Interconnected smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and compliant bathroom exhaust ventilation are also specified.
