Are you thinking about building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) on your property?

Per the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Section 8 of Chapter 150 of Acts of 2024, ADUs may be constructed by-right in residentially zoned areas. They may be up to 900 square feet or 50% of the gross floor area of your home, whichever is less. For more information from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/accessory-dwelling-units

ADUs may be added as: 

• Stand-alone structures
• Above or in a garage
• In a basement space
• As an addition to an existing home
