Accessory Dwelling Unit – Masters Touch Design Build

The recent Affordable Homes Act in Massachusetts has introduced new opportunities for homeowners to build accessory dwelling units (ADUs), making it an ideal time to consider adding this flexible space to your property. Masters Touch Design/Build specializes in helping homeowners navigate the process of designing and constructing ADUs, from understanding new zoning regulations to creating beautiful, functional spaces that meet your unique needs.

What is an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)?

An ADU, often referred to as an in-law suite, guest house, or secondary unit, is a self-contained living space on the same property as your main home. ADUs provide versatile solutions for accommodating family members, generating rental income, or creating a private workspace. With the Affordable Homes Act easing zoning restrictions, building an ADU is now more accessible than ever.

How the Affordable Homes Act Benefits Your ADU Project

Simplified Zoning and Permitting: One of the biggest barriers to building an ADU has been restrictive zoning laws. The new legislation has relaxed these restrictions, allowing more homeowners to add an ADU to their property. Masters Touch Design/Build can guide you through the updated regulations, ensuring your project complies with local codes while maximizing the available space.
Enhanced Financing Options: The state’s increased investment in housing makes it easier to secure financing for ADU projects, including grants and low-interest loans. Our team can help you explore these funding options, making the process of building your ADU more affordable.
Energy-Efficient Design: The Affordable Homes Act emphasizes the importance of sustainable building practices. At Masters Touch, we specialize in creating energy-efficient ADUs that are both eco-friendly and cost-effective. By incorporating the latest in sustainable design, we help you reduce long-term energy costs while adding value to your property.
