Purpose & footprint

A detached backyard ADU studio on a Texas lot, seen from an exterior three-quarter angle at dusk: crisp soft-white board-and-batten siding under a simple gabled composition-shingle roof, a full-lite black-framed glass door and a wide black-framed window revealing a warmly lit efficient interior with a compact oak kitchenette, a daybed, and a small desk zone, a cedar-wrapped entry surround with a single step, a gravel-and-paver path crossing a bermuda lawn from the main house, a mature live oak overhanging one corner, black gooseneck lights just switched on over the entry, the interior glow contrasting the cool dusk sky.

Detached backyard ADU studio — roughly 400 sf
A detached backyard studio at dusk: crisp soft-white board-and-batten siding under a simple gabled composition-shingle roof, with a full-lite black-framed glass door and wide picture window revealing a warmly lit interior. Inside sit a compact oak kitchenette, a daybed, and a small desk zone. A cedar-wrapped entry surround with a single concrete step anchors the door, black gooseneck lights glow over the entry, and a gravel-and-paver path crosses the lawn from the main house under a mature live oak. The intent is a real, permitted second space — guest suite, office, or studio — that earns its keep.
