This project brought to life the perfect Granny Flat in the form of an In-Law Suite, seamlessly blending into a charming 1955 ranch home in Marietta. Designed with comfort, independence, and connection in mind, the new ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) offers a spacious, self-contained living area for the homeowners’ retiring parents moving from out of state. With a full-functioning kitchen, cozy coffee bar, ample storage, and plenty of natural light, this suite is the ideal mix of style and functionality. Level access to both the suite and the main house ensures that it’s accessible for everyone, whether it’s a quiet retreat or a place to gather with family.
The In-Law Suite features separate living spaces that provide the perfect balance of privacy and togetherness. Thoughtful design elements like large windows and a comfortable outdoor sitting area give the suite an inviting, open feel. Even with pandemic-related challenges like supply chain disruptions and tight schedules, this Granny Flat was completed on time, ensuring the parents had their new home just as they were ready to move in. This project is a shining example of how an ADU, Granny Flat, or In-Law Suite can add value, convenience, and charm to any property.
