Biltmore – ADU Additions by Homework Remodels

Adding Value, Versatility, and Space in the Biltmore Area

In the Biltmore area of Phoenix, where luxury homes and established neighborhoods meet refined tastes, homeowners are increasingly turning to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) to expand their living potential. Whether you’re creating a guest house, private studio, rental suite, or multigenerational quarters, Homework Remodels brings thoughtful design and award-winning craftsmanship to every ADU project.

As a trusted remodeling contractor in Phoenix’s most prestigious neighborhoods, we specialize in seamlessly integrating new structures with existing architecture, elevating both lifestyle and property value without compromising beauty or integrity.

What Is an ADU?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit is a secondary residential structure on the same lot as your primary home. ADUs go by many names—guest houses, casitas, granny flats, in-law suites—but they all offer private living spaces that typically include a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, and dedicated entry.

In the Biltmore area, ADUs are especially appealing for:

Hosting extended family or guests
• Housing live-in caregivers or household staff
• Creating private work-from-home offices or studios
• Adding short- or long-term rental potential (check local zoning)
• Enhancing property resale value

Why ADUs Are Ideal for Biltmore Homes

Biltmore-area lots often have the size, privacy, and zoning flexibility to support accessory dwelling unit additions without overbuilding. Many homes feature generous backyards, side yards, or underutilized garage spaces that can be repurposed or expanded.

Here’s why Biltmore homeowners pursue ADU construction:

Maximize high-value real estate: Every square foot counts in this luxury market.
• Add lifestyle flexibility: Use your accessory dwelling unit today as a guest house, and repurpose it later for family or rental income.
• Match architectural character: We ensure your ADU complements the elegance of your main residence.
• Plan for aging in place: ADUs are a popular choice for multigenerational living.

ADU Design and Build Expertise

At Homework Remodels, we bring a design-build approach to every ADU project, meaning the same experienced team handles your project from concept to completion. This integrated process ensures a smooth, transparent, and beautifully executed build.

• Energy efficiency and soundproofing solutions
• Permits, inspections, and construction

Every detail is tailored to your vision and property conditions. We collaborate closely with you to create a private space that is both beautiful and practical.

Popular Types of ADUs in Biltmore

Detached Guest Houses
A freestanding guest home—typically 400 to 800 square feet—offers privacy and flexibility for guests, caregivers, or adult children.

Casitas
A casita (Spanish for “little house”) is a popular ADU style in the Southwest, designed to blend into the desert aesthetic. Casitas may share utilities with the main home and often include:
• A sleeping/living area
• Bathroom
• Kitchenette
• Patio or private entrance

Above-Garage Suites
For homes with existing garages, we can design a second-story ADU that includes an independent entry, often used as rental units or teen retreats.

Converted Outbuildings
Existing structures like detached garages, pool houses, or hobby sheds can be converted into beautiful, code-compliant living quarters.

Interior Conversions
For homes with unfinished basements, attached garages, or spare wings, we can build attached ADUs with dedicated entries and sound separation.

The Cost of ADU Additions in Biltmore

While ADU construction involves all the same trades as a small home (foundation, framing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, finishes), it lacks the efficiency of scale that larger homes benefit from.

In the Biltmore area, custom ADU additions typically begin at $250,000+, depending on size, complexity, and site conditions. We provide complete, transparent pricing during your consultation process so there are no surprises.
