Independent Living, Family-First Design

What Is a Mother-in-Law Suite?

A Mother-in-Law Suite—also known as a granny flat or accessory dwelling unit (ADU)—is a self-contained living space located on the same property as a main home. Typically between 300 and 1,000 square feet, these suites offer the perfect mix of proximity and privacy.


Our Jacksonville Mother-in-Law Suites feature:

  • A full kitchen and private bathroom
  • Separate entrance for true independence
  • Cozy living and sleeping areas
  • Built-in storage and accessibility features
  • Custom finishes tailored to your needs


Built with care and compliant with local building codes, these suites are ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or future rental income.
