Edmonds ADU construction is a practical way to make a property more flexible while keeping the charm of a coastal town. An accessory dwelling unit can serve as a guest suite, rental unit, private space for relatives, caregiver suite, studio or quiet home office.
Edmonds has a distinct mix of historic downtown homes, Puget Sound view properties, mid-century houses and custom residences near natural areas. Homes in The Bowl, Westgate, Perrinville, Meadowdale Beach, Five Corners and Firdale Village may each require a different ADU approach based on lot shape, slope, access and existing architecture.

As an ADU contractor Edmonds homeowners can work with from planning to completion, Maksymov Brownstone LLC manages design coordination, structural work, utility planning, insulation, windows, plumbing, electrical systems, flooring, cabinetry, lighting and finish carpentry.

ADU construction options tailored to your property
Basement conversion
A basement conversion transforms existing lower-level space into a fully functional living unit with a private entrance, bathroom, kitchenette and living area.
Using the current structure reduces costs while improving moisture control, ceiling height, lighting, insulation, HVAC, plumbing and electrical systems.
This option works well for rental income, extended family, or long-term guest stays.
Garage conversion
Garage conversions turn underutilized garage space into comfortable living quarters, including a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living area.
This solution adds valuable square footage without expanding the home’s footprint while upgrading insulation, windows, flooring, utilities, climate control and modern finishes for versatile everyday use.
Attic conversion
Attic conversions create private upper-level living space with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette and lounge. Structural upgrades, dormers, stair access, insulation, ventilation, skylights, HVAC integration and plumbing allow homeowners to gain extra living space while preserving yard and garage areas, ideal for guests, teenagers, home offices or rental income.
Built around puget sound, slopes and historic character
ADU construction Edmonds WA requires attention to the city’s coastal setting. Salt air, rain and moisture can affect exterior materials, trim, siding, hardware, ventilation and long-term maintenance. For ADUs near Puget Sound or hillside lots with view potential, material selection and water management are especially important. In The Bowl and other sloped areas, construction planning may include access, drainage, foundation strategy and how the new unit sits on the lot.
In tighter downtown areas, an attached ADU, finished basement or compact conversion may make more sense than a larger detached structure. Some Edmonds homes may also require extra care because of age or historic character. Early 1900s Craftsman houses, 1940s cottages and mid-century bungalows should be updated thoughtfully, with attention to proportions, exterior details, older plumbing, electrical systems and lead-safe practices when applicable.
