An ADU is a secondary home on a single-family lot in Bellevue, either attached to the main house or built as a separate detached structure. Bellevue allows up to two ADUs on a qualifying lot. Since July 2025, detached ADUs are permitted citywide under Ordinance 6851, so owners have far more flexibility than a year ago.
An ADU adds rental income, housing for aging parents, or a private guest space. It uses land you already own, so it builds value without buying more property. With Bellevue now allowing two units per lot, the earning and living options are wider than before.
Yes. Every ADU in Bellevue needs a building permit, plus zoning and code review. Detached units and garage conversions each have their own requirements. We prepare the full application and manage it through the city so the project stays compliant and on schedule.
Cost depends on size, type, and finishes. A garage conversion runs the least, while a large detached cottage costs the most. Utility connections and site work also affect the total. We give you one written estimate after a free on-site visit.
Most ADUs take a few months from permit approval to move-in. Design and permitting add time before the build starts. Detached units usually take longer than conversions. We map out the full schedule before any work begins.
Yes. ADUs can be rented as long-term housing, and Bellevue no longer requires the owner to live on-site. That makes a second unit a real income option. Short-term rentals follow separate city rules, which we can point you to.
Bellevue allows ADUs up to 1,200 square feet, or 40 percent of the main structure, whichever is larger. Detached units can rise up to three stories under the updated code. We design to the maximum your lot and budget allow.
Not always. Some ADUs share water and power with the main house, while others need separate connections depending on size and layout. Separate meters help if you plan to rent. We assess your utilities during the site evaluation.
Yes. A garage conversion is one of the most affordable ways to add an attached ADU, since the structure already exists. It still needs permits, insulation, and code-compliant systems. We handle the conversion from design through final inspection.
Usually yes. Adding livable square footage raises your assessed value, so property taxes typically go up. The added rental income or home value often outweighs the increase. The county assessor sets the exact change after the build.
