MUD BAY DADU
Location
Bellingham, WA
Year
2024-ongoing
A Mud Bay ADU increases the density of this lot, providing a compact living space and garage below with ample space to work on and store bikes. With a maximum square footage of 1,000 square feet for a garage/ADU, the living space becomes condensed very quickly! The home is made to feel more spacious with built-in storage in the bedroom, a good sized mud and laundry room, a full wall of cabinets/vertical pantry in the kitchen, and a loft above the kitchen for a guest sleeping area.
Large windows and a large sliding door system make the living space feel open and light, and a covered deck allows for extended indoor-outdoor living. A full-width, east facing front porch with built-in planters provides a lovely spot to drink a cup of coffee in the morning, and the west-facing deck provides a space to host dinners with views sunset of the forest and the water. The planted roof over the deck extends over the secondary staircase that provides access to the home from the garage to provide some cover from the elements during inclement weather.
