The Story
The Myrtle homeowners wanted somewhere for grandma to live close, but independently. A garage conversion gave us a footprint and a roofline; we layered in accessibility details — zero-threshold entry, ADA-ready bath, and natural light on three sides — without losing the California-casual character the family wanted.
