This Leschi DADU project, along with an attached ADU, gave a beloved century-old home a stable future and room to grow with the family. First, a new foundation secured the home for years to come. It also gave us the chance to dig out the basement and turn it into an inviting attached accessory dwelling unit (AADU).

The lower level now has three bedrooms, a full bath with a classic claw-foot tub, and an open kitchen, dining and living area. As a result, it works well for multigenerational living or long guest stays. In addition, we placed large windows carefully to fill the space with daylight, so it feels bright, open and connected.

Meanwhile, a new detached accessory dwelling unit (DADU) replaced the aging garage. This charming two-story home has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and efficient living areas. It works as a rental or a guest house, and its style complements the historic main home. Finally, refreshed siding, a welcoming new front porch and a solar array set up both homes for a bright, sustainable future. Together, they give the family flexibility, rental potential and lasting value in their neighborhood.
