Detached ADU
Premium Garden Detached Cottage
Palo Alto, CA
Verified General Contract
Project Overview
An elegant independent backyard ADU retreat. Built with horizontal cedar siding, modern kitchenette block, full space layout, and high-efficiency heat pump systems.
The Challenge
Extremely narrow side-yard access that limited standard excavator equipment and strict Palo Alto tree preservation guidelines around old oak trees.
The OCD Builders Solution
Carried out excavation through micro-machineries and manual hand-digging, protecting the root zones under independent professional supervision, and building framing on-site.
