Del Mar: Del Mar's prime coastal position means salt air, heavy marine layer, and roughly ten inches of rain a year -- all factors that shape material choices and foundation decisions when building a permanent ADU on an estate-sized lot. Homes here average about 55 years old, which means many properties have the bones and the yard space to support a well-designed detached unit.

Why is junior adu different in Coastal San Diego?

On the coast, lots in Encinitas, Del Mar, and Carlsbad are often too tight for a detached ADU, making a JADU the only realistic path to adding a legal rental unit. Converting an attached bedroom or garage into a JADU skirts the setback and lot coverage limits that kill full ADU projects here. With rents among the highest in the county, even a modest JADU pays for itself fast.

What's included in junior adu in Del Mar?

  • JADU design within your existing footprint
  • A separate entrance and efficiency kitchen

  • Streamlined permitting for the JADU path
