Licensed ROC #365677 · Tempe, AZ
An independent home on the same lot needs a thoughtful boundary between shared space and private space. For a Tempe ADU, we look at entrances, window placement, outdoor circulation, and storage alongside the building footprint. Existing guest quarters or converted spaces also belong in that first conversation.
Tempe evaluates new separate living-space applications under its ADU rules. Existing guest quarters can also affect the review of a proposed additional unit.
We plan the living area, kitchen, bathroom, and entrance as one complete home, then connect those choices to the approved site plan and construction scope. If a conversion is under consideration, the existing structure and building systems need review as well.
You work with one team through design coordination, permit review, construction, and the final walkthrough. The scope and site requirements guide the budget; a generic price per square foot cannot answer every question about your property.
One team. From the first plan to the final detail.
Property feasibility and Tempe zoning review
Layout planning for independent living and everyday storage
Site, utility, and permit-submission coordination
Construction management from site work through interior finish
Final inspection coordination and project walkthrough
A few things to work through before you build.
Yes. Tempe states that existing guest quarters count toward the allowed attached or detached units. We review the existing improvements and approval history before proposing another unit.
Size, finishes, site access, utility work, and the approved scope all matter. We review those together so the budget reflects the project you are actually planning.
Design decisions, permit review, site preparation, and construction each affect the schedule. We discuss the expected sequence after reviewing the property and scope, rather than promise a move-in date before that work is done.
