When the Smith family decided to explore building an ADU on their Los Angeles property, they had a clear vision: Create a beautiful and functional space that could generate rental income and serve as a comfortable guest house for visiting family.

That’s where White Lotus Builders came in. We worked closely with the Smiths to bring their ADU dreams to life, delivering a project that exceeded their expectations.

The Challenge: Maximizing Space & Style

The Smith property presented a unique challenge: a modestly sized backyard within a dense LA neighborhood. Our design team needed to create an ADU that felt spacious and bright while respecting local ordinances and maintaining privacy.

The White Lotus Builders Solution

Smart Design: We opted for a 500-square-foot ADU floorplan with vaulted ceilings and abundant windows to enhance the sense of space. A mix of modern and natural finishes added visual interest.
Outdoor Connection: Sliding glass doors seamlessly connect the ADU interior to a private patio, creating an indoor-outdoor living experience perfect for the LA climate.
Streamlined Construction: Our expertise in ADU construction ensured efficient use of the limited space, keeping the project on time and within budget.

The Results: A Transformed Property

The completed ADU added an estimated $250,000 to the Smith’s property value based on recent appraisals. And that’s not all:

Steady Rental Income: The ADU is in high demand as a short-term rental, providing the family with a consistent additional income stream.
Flexible Guest Space: When not rented, the ADU transforms into the perfect guest suite for visiting family and friends.

Client Testimonial: “White Lotus Builders truly understood what we wanted. Their team was professional, communicative, and delivered an ADU that’s even better than we imagined.” – Mr. & Mrs. Smith
