Susan and Chuck Webb relocated from Bowling Green, Kentucky, to Berkeley, California, to be closer to their daughter and grandson. The retired couple soon realized they’d need more space than their century-old, 1,300-square-foot craftsman bungalow could provide in order to spread out, host out-of-town visitors and, perhaps eventually, accommodate a live-in caretaker. They spent $196,270 to build this all-electric 300-square-foot ADU, designed by Type Five.
