Chasing warmer weather and better wine, Carl and BB moved to Yountville in 2016, “It’s one of the greatest places you can live. We park our car and walk everywhere.” As local shoppers, over time they began making friends with the restaurant owners and staff near their home. But they noticed a problem, every year too many people moved away. People who worked at the stores, no matter how hard they tried, could not afford to live nearby. So, they had a solution. They built an ADU not only for additional income, but specifically to support employees at nearby Yountville restaurants, from sous chefs to bussers. And it worked! “There’s been lots of interest in renting it. We’re particular about who we rent it to because we share the back yard, but there has been no problem finding people”.

It’s small, 300 square feet, but has everything someone needs. It is also beautiful with cathedral ceilings and a little patio to make it feel much bigger. The ADU fits in well with their yard and matches the design of the main house. Best of all, it is a 5-minute commute by foot through the beautiful streets of Yountville to some of the best restaurants in the United States that they love.
