As an independent living space, an ADU has its own bathroom and kitchen. Depending on the available square <br />footage — and sometimes on the local zoning code or the property's plumbing and utility connections — an ADU <br />might have a full kitchen with full-sized appliances and a dining area (top) or a smaller but functional kitchenette. <br />This interior is from the detached ADU pictured below right and on the back cover. Fun fact: A coat closet and <br />extra kitchen shelving are built into the base of the circular staircase. In a small home, every bit of space counts! <br />The kitchen of this internal ADU (also seen at the <br />top of page 9 and in the bedroom image at left) has a <br />full-sized range but a mini -refrigerator. Some ADU <br />owners install a one- or two -burner electric cooktop <br />and a convection microwave in lieu of an oven. <br />Y _ <br />The second story of this detached ADU is accessed <br />by the spiral staircase shown in the image at top. The <br />space features a bedroom and a sitting area that could <br />be used as a nursery, office or den. A full-sized, <br />stacked washer -dryer is hidden behind a closet door. <br />The ABCs of ADUs A A R P 19 <br />
