In celebration of our 60th Anniversary and the holiday season, we're sharing some of our favorite home remodeling projects! Check out this master suite elevator addition in Moraga, which was also featured in Diablo Magazine.
The Challenge Our clients came to Gayler Design Build seeking a solution for keeping their family close. Their parents were getting older and needed more care and attention, thus were looking for a remodeling solution that would give their parents a place to live independently, while keeping them close.
They were interested in building a new addition attached to the primary dwelling that would function much like an apartment for their parents, or accessory dwelling unit (ADU). Because our client's home was built on a slope with the garage on the lower level, the only feasible place to build a 400 square foot addition was on the home's second level.
The Solution We created an elevator shaft from the garage to the upper-level unit, giving their parents easy access to a new master suite, incorporating universal design features that promoted safety and comfort.
