A casita is a small detached home on your lot. Everbuilt designs it, permits it and builds it to match the house you already have.
At a glance
- Guest suite, home office or rental income
- Matched to your roof, stucco and trim
- Utilities tied in properly
- Permitted as a legal dwelling
A casita gives you space without moving. Parents stay close. Adult kids get privacy. Or you rent it out and let it pay for itself.
We start with your lot and your setbacks. Then we draw a unit that fits the yard and the rules. Most casitas run from 300 to 800 square feet with a full bath and a small kitchen.
The finished casita should look like it was always there. We match the roofline, the stucco color and the window style. Power, water and sewer are tied in the right way and signed off by the inspector.
Questions about casita addition
Do I need a permit for a casita?
Yes. A casita is a dwelling and it needs full permits. We file them for you.
Can I rent it out?
In most areas yes. We check the local rules for your address before we draw anything.
