Don't See the Right Fit? Go Custom.

Every model here is a starting point. We design fully custom ADUs tailored to your lot, your household, and your budget, with no premium for customization. A custom build at a similar size and complexity costs about the same as a comparable catalog model. More elaborate or architectural designs are priced to match, always all-in and honest, with nothing left vague or buried in the estimate.

EVERY MODEL, SITE-BUILT NOT PREFAB

Built In Place, Start To Finish

Every model in the catalog is built the same way a house is: poured on its own foundation, then framed, wired, and finished in place on your property. None of it is assembled somewhere else and set down later. What you get is a permanent structure that holds its value and remains part of the property for good.

Constructed like a traditional house, because it is one.

WHY HIVE ADU

Built Right, Whatever You Choose

Whether you build the smallest studio or a full three-bedroom home, you get the same team, the same care, and the same honest pricing. Every Hive ADU is built on your lot to last, designed around your family and your property, by people who do this and only this.

Whatever you build, you're in good hands.

QUESTIONS ABOUT HIVE ADUS

ADU Questions, Answered

Site-Built, Start to Finish

Every Hive ADU is built on your lot like a house, not delivered like a box. Tell us about your property, and we will show you which models fit your site’s needs.

Neither. Nothing is built in a factory and delivered. Construction happens entirely on your property, from groundwork through final inspection, the same trades and sequence as a full house. What you end up with is a permanent home that is part of your lot and its value, and that is true of every model, studio to three-bedroom.

Turnkey pricing starts at $172,328 for a studio and scales with size up to a full three-bedroom. Every build is one design-build contract covering design, permitting submittal, and construction, with no hidden allowances.

It depends on your setbacks, lot coverage, and site conditions. A free property analysis tells you which sizes fit your specific property.

Both. Start with any model, and we adjust the layout, finishes, or footprint to fit your lot, or we design a fully custom ADU from scratch. Going custom carries no premium: pricing follows the size and complexity of what you build, not whether it started in the catalog.

Santa Barbara and Ventura County only. Being 100% ADU-focused and local means every home is built around real lot conditions, setbacks, and code in both counties.
