Nestled behind a 100-year-old Craftsman in L.A., a 700-square-foot ADU mirrors the home's period charm and provides housing for an office and extended family.
, the couple rehired the architects to help them build an accessory dwelling unit that would give them more room and preserve the home’s Craftsman architecture. In Culver City, no new or replacement parking was required for the ADU after the garage was demolished, which didn’t affect Coleman and Vela because they have room to park four cars on a long driveway on the west side of their yard.Seeing so many McMansions in Los Angeles, Coleman says she “didn’t want a mega-house.
Preserving the yard was another priority for the family. “We could have gone up to 1,200 square feet but we wanted to maintain the outdoor garden space,” says Hsu. “It was about nestling the ADU into the backyard and not disturbing the trees as well as creating a space between the ADU and the main house that serves as a playground for the family.”If you’re feeling the springtime itch to go look at open houses, first of all, we’re sorry about the sticker shock.
Likewise, a pocket door can close off the bedroom to provide privacy for guests. A loft, accessed by an iron ladder, provides overflow space for guests and a small kitchenette in the hallway accommodates basic cooking needs while saving space in the tight quarters. Further enhancing the aesthetics of the backyard, the architects installed a new electrical main power drop at the rear of the ADU that provides underground electrical service from the ADU to the main house.
