ADu

ADU stands for "accessory dwelling unit". An ADU is an independent dwelling unit that is detached from the principal structure (main house) on a lot. 

ADUs are a completely separate unit from the main living space, ADUs can be used for several purposes.

The two most common are a living space for other family members or as a rental space.

The key is that they have to be completely livable. They have exploded in popularity recently as more cities allow ADU construction to address housing concerns.
