MAK Design+Build Inc.

A few steps from the main house, but it feels like its own little getaway.

This Cape Cod-inspired ADU was designed to be a cozy retreat surrounded by the garden. French doors open to the outdoors, a custom window seat creates the perfect reading nook, and every detail was carefully considered to make the space feel welcoming and comfortable. One of our favorite features is the built-in window seat, which adds both storage and a place to pause and enjoy the view.

Whether it's used for guests, family, or simply a quiet escape close to home, this ADU proves that small spaces can have a big impact. What feature would you claim first: the window seat or the French doors?
