Garden Suite

Custom garden suites designed for comfortable living, rental income, or guest space.

About the service

A garden suite can add a separate, self-contained living space to a residential property for family, guests, rental use, or other long-term needs. Because every property is different, a successful garden suite begins with understanding the site, the intended use, and the planning and building requirements that apply to the project.

Powell Group can coordinate the construction process from the early planning stages through to the finished space, with attention to how the new structure fits the property, performs year-round, and functions as a comfortable living environment.

What’s included

The scope of a garden suite project can include site assessment, design and permit coordination, site preparation, foundation work, framing, roofing, windows and exterior finishes, insulation, and interior construction.

Powell Group can also coordinate the plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and other building systems required for the project, followed by drywall, flooring, cabinetry, fixtures, painting, and final finishes. The exact design and scope are determined by the property, the intended use of the suite, and applicable approvals and building requirements.
