Guest Houses & Accessory Dwellings

An accessory dwelling gives you flexible space without leaving your property. We design and build backyard cottages, garage apartments, in-law suites and studios, with their own kitchens, baths, entrances and utilities where the plan calls for them.

We build accessory dwellings across Middle Tennessee, including Nashville lots where rules about size, setbacks and utilities need careful reading. We handle the planning and construction so the new space feels like part of your home.
