The Mosley is a perfect backyard office, guest house or getaway. This ADU design is a great option as an Alameda rental property for supplemental income as well. With a lofted 12′ cathedral ceiling, full bath, wet-bar, and kitchen. Large enough for a pull-down Murphy Bed, it easily converts between different uses.
As with all our backyard ADU designs, the Mosley ADU can be customized with architectural details to complement the style of your primary home.
