Detached backyard cottages
DADU (Backyard Cottage)
A Detached Accessory Dwelling Unit (DADU) — often called a backyard cottage — is a fully independent home built on your existing lot. It is perfect for rental income, multigenerational living, guests, or a private studio, all with its own footprint and entrance.
Go Far Construction designs and builds DADUs from the ground up, handling site planning, utilities, permitting, and construction. The result is a standalone cottage that complements your main home and meaningfully increases your property value.
