#backyard cottage

Would you think that a cottage could be made out of an old teeny shed?

First it got some electric.

White paint, new windows and shiplap.

Look at how adorable it is. There’s no bedroom, so I’m assuming that the sofa is also a bed.

So pretty.

For a little place, it’s sure big on style.

I would never expect that they could fit such a nice kitchen in here.

It even has a full bathroom with a shower. This is amazing.

This is called the Writer’s Haven and it would make a great she shed.

Judging by the insulation, I think it would be beautiful with turquoise walls.

It comes w/this swirly glass window- isn’t that a nice feature?

And, of course, here’s the writing area. But, you can craft or pot plants, make a guest house, there’s a lot you can do in here.

This is such a sweet story- A 6 yr. old who was undergoing chemo, always wanted a tiny house in the back yard. So, to distract him during the treatments, his mom decided to engage him in building one. While in the hospital, they started to scour the internet for ideas.

Local people came together to help, using some locally sourced materials from Oregon, where they live.

One of the must-have’s on her son’s list was a Dutch door, so this pine one was chosen.

The Hickory cabinets were a bargain b/c they had some blemishes, and a copper sink was a splurge for it’s anti-microbial properties- especially good for someone whose immune system is compromised.

The table & chairs were hand-carved by a local artisan. Mom envisions many hours playing board games here.

Mom wanted a 2nd fl. with a full staircase. All the handmade furniture and this bear were done by the same wood carver.

And, here’s the king sized bed where mom pictures her 2 sons lying together, looking at the stars thru the skylight. Love this story.

7 Steps to Simplify ADU Permits in Boca Raton

Adding an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) to your Boca Raton property is a great way to gain space, but the permitting process can be complex. Navigating local building codes and zoning requirements often requires a structured, professional approach. THE PATH TO YOUR BACKYARD SANCTUARY - Initial Feasibility Study: Before breaking ground, assess if your lot size, soil conditions, and utility lines can support an additional structure. - Zoning Review: Check residential density ordinances to ensure your specific neighborhood allows for an ADU. - Utility Planning: Design a layout that connects water and power to the detached unit while respecting safety standards. - Setback Compliance: Measure carefully to ensure the structure meets local distance requirements from property lines. - Design Approval: Submit detailed site plans that account for local drainage and sun exposure. - Permit Application: Submit all documentation to the city building department for official review. - Construction Phase: Begin the build only after full legal authorization, ensuring compliance with all health and safety codes. Following these steps helps turn your vision for extra space into a reality while keeping your property compliant and secure.
