After decades of wanting bigger and more, people have been starting to recognize the benefits of downsizing.
It’s not just about buying less stuff or finally clearing out the closets, garage or basement. Over the past decade there has been a clear and growing trend towards to choosing smaller houses - much smaller.
The most recent iteration of this development has been the growing popularity of Accessory Dwelling Units or ADUs as they are called.
It’s a new take on a historic way that people created housing for family members who wanted to live together - but not under the same roof.
It’s a perfect solution that lets people tackle a range of issues including the high cost of purchasing a new home and the isolation of living alone.
But what exactly is an ADU, you might ask? We’re going to be talking about that in today’s podcast.
Today we are joined by Sheri Koones, a leading authority on the smaller home movement and the author of 12 books covering all aspects of this topic.
In her newest book, “ADUs : The Perfect Housing Solution” she provides a comprehensive view of how turn these small dwellings into luxury home environments.
In this podcast Sheri will be discussing:
- Why the rising popularity of ADUs is a sign of bigger trend towards a desire for more community.
- How people are turning smaller houses into fabulous, luxury homes.
- How new small homes are being purpose built to support each occupant’s lifestyle.
