Miami-Dade County has approved an ordinance, allowing an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) or guesthouse in a single-family zoned district either as a newly detached or attached dwelling unit, including the conversion of a portion of an existing single-family dwelling.
The County Code imposes certain restrictions and conditions on the allowance for an ADU or guesthouse to ensure neighborhood compatibility, design compatibility, and management of parking needs. For more information on accessory units, please see section 33-22 of the County Code.
An ADU is an addition to a single-family home with a separate entrance from the primary unit that is intended for use by a separate family of occupants. The ADU has it’s own kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping area and can be rented by the owner of the property.
Cueto Engineering can prepare the required permit documents including architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing drawings and calculations required for your ADU project.
