RV garage + Guest house addition (near Sun Lakes AZ)
Before we focus on the specifics of this construction project, here are some introductory comments. First, whatever you need (even beyond building you an RV garage or guest house), our Phoenix-based builders can help you to plan it, design it, and build it (and even help you get financing to fund the construction).
Across the years, our addition builders serving greater Phoenix have built a wide variety of projects. That includes simple "bump-out" room additions to 2nd-story additions to enclosures (converting a garage, patio, or attic in to a room addition or studio apartment). The designs have included additions that were attached & detached, very small & very large (including this guest house addition that features an RV garage plus a garage for a standard-sized car). So, while this addition project showcases a few distinctive features, you can also browse through a gallery of several other remodeling or construction projects that were unique in other ways (by clicking here or here).
What's the typical process from design to permitting to construction?
Generally, most people who contact us do not already have a floorplan or architectural drawings. So, we typically help Arizona homeowners to review the design options that fit for their priorities and property, then create whatever plans or blueprints are needed to get the building permit.
In this case, the RV garage at the right looks somewhat typical, right? However, take a look again at the photo at the top of the page. Off to the right of the garage doors, there is clearly a lot more there than just a covered parking area. There is a decent-sized guest house "hiding" behind the tall building for parking the motor home.
In the slideshow to the far left, you can get a sense of that the building would look like if you walked around it. We'll include a larger exterior picture below, but first let's take a peek inside...
The interior features a full kitchen plus two bedrooms (as well as one and a half bathrooms). Some of these pictures were taken prior to the final stages (like installing the floor tiles), although you can get a good idea of the interior space from these photos.
The image on the right shows the exterior view of the same sliding glass windows that are in the photo above to the left. Note that all the piles of gravel in these photos were later spread out across the ground, plus some landscaping to make a boundary between the walkways and the native Arizona plants.
Here are two more angles of the kitchen. If you look closely at these two photos, you can see one of our installers talking on his cell phone while he inspects the plumbing under the kitchen sink.
Keep in mind that this kitchen is relatively small, since this is just a guest house for temporary visitors to Sun Lakes While there is not a huge amount of counter space or overhead cabinets, it is quite sufficient for when the elderly in-laws flee from the ice and snow to come down south to Arizona for a few months of very mild winter.
In the next pictures, we see the two bathrooms. The master bathroom has a full shower and tub plus lots of storage in the medicine cabinet (which will go in the wall shown here.) The half bathroom is quite simple with a modest sink and toilet.
Further down are pictures of the two bedrooms. Not shown is the washer-dryer hookup, plus the interior of the RV garage and standard-sized 1-car garage.
Custom "design and build" services for your new RV garage or guest house
Generally speaking, most RV garages & guest houses are a lot alike, right? However, our
builders can design and build you an addition as well as anything else you need. So, whether your priority is a typical detached guest house, a totally custom-designed addition, or a conversion of a garage in to a guest suite, we will help you!
Naturally, not everyone who wants to build a
guest house in Sun Lakes is going to value the same priorities. Some people prefer a simple, standard floorplan (and keeping costs low). Others value features like wheelchair accessibility in their guest house or mother-in-law suite. Whether your top priority is keeping your budget low or something else, be sure to let your estimator know what is important to you when you send us an inquiry through our form to
contact our addition builders serving Sun Lakes AZ.
