Granite Bay lots are large enough to build ADUs that don’t compromise the main house’s outdoor space. Half-acre and larger lots in Granite Bay have room for a properly sized detached ADU — 800-1,200 sq ft — that functions as a genuine small home for extended family, a guest cottage, or a long-term rental.
Placer County handles ADU permits for Granite Bay. The process is more involved than city jurisdictions but very manageable. We’ve submitted ADU permit packages to Placer County and know what the building department needs to see. For detached structures on large lots, we design ADUs that are architecturally consistent with the main house — materials, massing, and roofline that belong on the property rather than looking like they came from a different project.
Home additions — primary suite additions, casitas, guest wings — are also common in Granite Bay where lot size allows. We handle the complete design-build process.

Granite Bay properties have the lot size for ADU construction at a level that matches the main house. We design and build to that standard — not just functional, but designed for the property. Home should feel like coming back to something you’re proud of.
We handle permit drawings, submissions, and all plan check responses with the building department.
Design that makes the unit feel intentional — not like a converted garage with a hot plate.
Site planning to maximize usable square footage while meeting setbacks and lot coverage limits.
Utility connections — sewer, electrical, gas — coordinated from the start, not figured out mid-construction.
Built to rent or built for family — finishes and layouts chosen for durability and real livability.
