G.J. Gardner Homes Debuts 10 New Granny Flat Designs

FRESNO, California, May 17, 2017 (Newswire.com) - G.J. Gardner Homes, a Central Valley-based home building company, has unveiled their ten unique Granny Flat home designs to be built throughout the state of California. A granny flat is also known as an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), secondary dwelling, lane way house, or in-law suite. Recent California laws (SB 1069, AB 2299, and AB 2406) significantly reduce restrictions on building accessory dwelling units, or Granny Flats. These units are self-contained living spaces that are either attached or detached to the primary residence and located on the same property. With minimal available land throughout California, G.J. Gardner has jumped on the opportunity to help provide a solution for homeowners needing more space.

"This new law makes a lot of sense for our growing population here in the Valley," GJ Gardner CEO Greg Dettwiler said in a statement issued yesterday. "The ability to fast-track the construction of a second dwelling on land you already own is of great benefit to our community."
