Accessory Dwelling Units
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are becoming one of the fastest-growing ways for homeowners to add flexible living space, rental income, or a dedicated area for family members. With rising demand across the Lowcountry, ADUs offer a smart, efficient way to expand your property without the cost or disruption of a traditional addition.
At Generation V Homes, we make the ADU process simple. Our modular builds are crafted in a controlled environment, delivered to your property, and installed quickly — giving you a secure, durable, and high-quality unit designed for coastal South Carolina.
We will custom build on YOUR lot!
WHAT IS AN ADU
An ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) is a small, self-contained home located on the same property as a primary residence. ADUs typically include a living area, bathroom, kitchen or kitchenette, and sleeping space. They can serve as guest suites, rental units, home offices, aging-in-place solutions, or private retreats for family.
