An accessory dwelling unit can serve almost any purpose. Here are the four most common reasons homeowners in Colorado build one.
ADU rentals in South Denver range from $1,950 to $3,650 per month. A well designed unit pays for itself over time while building long term equity.
Keep aging parents or adult children close without sharing walls. A separate unit on your property gives everyone privacy and independence.
Zero distractions. A dedicated workspace on your lot means you can close the door at 5 PM and actually be home.
A full kitchen, bathroom, and living area. No more blowup mattresses. No more sharing a single bathroom.
Skip the membership. A dedicated fitness or studio space steps from your back door — built exactly how you want it.

Every property is different. Here are a few configurations to start imagining what yours could look like.
Homes in South Denver rent for $2,000+/month on average. That rental income offsets your build cost while the unit adds value to your property.
Rent and property value figures are estimates based on publicly available market data for the South Denver metro. Actual results vary by location, unit size, and market conditions.
Most ADU projects in the South Denver area fall between $250,000 and $450,000. The total depends on unit size, site conditions, and whether you go with a factory built or stick built approach. Factory built units tend to cost less and build faster. During your free consultation we provide a rough budget range specific to your lot.
In most cases, yes. Colorado's HB24-1152 limits how much HOAs can restrict ADU construction on single family lots. Some HOAs can still regulate design standards like exterior materials and colors, but they generally cannot outright ban ADUs. We handle HOA coordination as part of our permitting process.
From signed contract to move in, plan for 8 to 14 months total. Permitting typically takes 2 to 4 months depending on your municipality. Construction runs 6 to 10 months for site built units and 4 to 6 months for factory built. We walk you through the full timeline during your consultation.
Owner occupancy requirements vary by jurisdiction. Some Colorado municipalities require that the property owner live in either the main house or the ADU. Others have no such requirement. We check your specific city's rules during the feasibility review so you know exactly where you stand before committing.
Yes. A permitted ADU adds livable square footage and income potential, both of which appraisers factor into your home's value. Exact figures depend on your market and unit quality, but homeowners in the Denver metro area consistently see meaningful increases in assessed value after completing a permitted ADU.
Everything from first call to keys. That includes site evaluation, architectural design, engineering, permit applications, HOA coordination, construction, project management, inspections, and final walkthrough. You get a single point of contact throughout the entire project instead of managing multiple contractors yourself.
