Accessory Dwelling Units
At Bold Coast Studio, we are dedicated to helping Maine homeowners maximize their property's potential. We specialize in accessory dwelling units (ADUs), offering thoughtful design solutions for rental income, multi-generational living, or flexible space. Thanks to recent changes in Maine law, building an ADU is more feasible than ever.
We offer both custom design services and ready-to-build plan packages to fit your needs and budget.
