Can I use a home shell as an ADU?
The short answer
Often, yes, where your city or county allows accessory dwelling units. A code-compliant home shell is built to residential code, and our site work includes residential mono foundations for home shells and ADUs. ADU rules on lot size, utilities, and occupancy vary widely, so check zoning first. Compare models on our code-compliant home shells page.
Ask your planning office whether ADUs are allowed on your lot and what utility connections they require. Then follow the steps in our home shell ordering guide.
