Living in San Diego can be expensive, so converting a garage into a comfortable living space can be both practical and exciting. However, it’s crucial to follow all official procedures set by your city before proceeding.
At some point, we all need extra space in our homes. Whether it’s because children are growing up, a new baby has arrived, or extended family is moving in, the garage can become a valuable space.
Converting your garage or granny flat into a legal living space is often the most efficient and cost-effective way to remodel your home and create additional living space. It’s a way to renovate your home’s design structure seamlessly, without anyone noticing.
About 10 square feet of the area should have outdoor lighting.
Where will you connect the water pipes for the bathroom in your conversion?
If you don’t have a garage in your house, where will you store your belongings?
There should be at least 5 sq. ft. of open ventilation in the floor plan of your ADU.
The egress window in your home must have a minimum opening area of 5.7 sq. ft.
The living space should be kept at 70 degrees Fahrenheit using a heater.
Transform your garage into a functional living space and unlock new possibilities for your home!
If you’re thinking about converting your garage into a living space, it’s important to consider how it will impact your home and any future plans for an ADU.
