Site Planning: Privacy, Access, and “Estate Logic”

By RemodelSD | January 09, 2026 | San Diego

A luxury ADU isn’t just about the inside. It’s about where it sits on the property.

Key site considerations: - Private entry path that doesn’t interrupt the main home - Outdoor space: patio, courtyard, or garden area for the unit - Window placement that avoids direct sightlines into the main house - Noise management: keep it away from service zones and loud equipment when possible - Parking and arrival experience (even if it’s subtle)

Think of it like planning a small boutique guest suite: arrival should feel intentional.
