The Castella Modern is a simple, single-story backyard cottage designed to complement any home while providing valuable additional space. The unit is designed for easy aging in place for those who would like to use it as an in-law’s cottage, but it would be equally fitting for use as an income generating long-term rental unit. The layout includes two bedrooms, a full kitchen with island-top dining, a living space, an in-unit laundry room and a bathroom that is split to allow multiple users at a time for smooth morning routines. There is also a small, covered entry and an attached single-car garage. Exterior finishes can be selected by the owners from fiber cement lap siding, fiber cement paneling, or stucco.
