The detached garage conversion is a slightly simpler method of ADU construction that converts preexisting parking structures into livable units.
This particular style of MFD is created by stacking housing above preexisting separate parking. This creates a “soft” 2 story design hence the name Tuck under.
This method of ADU conversion can vary widely in its application depending on many different variables. In short, this method involves turning some preexisting unlivable space into rentable units. This can be a gym, spa, storage, or any other existing space.
If you do not have any separate structure from your apartment then this method is perfect for you. When in doubt you can build a duplex on your property given that there is enough room available. These units do need to follow strict sizing and spacing regulations in order to be acceptable.
This method of ADU construction is similar to the previously mentioned detached garage conversion ADU except it requires the structure is connected directly to the apartment building.
