Build your dream home addition:
an award-winning ADU

Refined Homes is a nationally recognized contractor for designing and building Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in Saint Paul.

Built from the ground up on their previous 1-car garage site, the new structure offers secure vehicle and equipment storage on the lower level, and a multifunctional upper level fulfills the need for the owner’s collaborative home office.

The upper-level open living area provides more additional square feet than any home remodel the clients could imagine. The multifunctional open-concept living space allocates two nooks for workspaces and an open center space for meetings and entertaining.

A fully equipped kitchen provides adequate counter space, cooktop, oven, and sink to offer enough capacity without over-engineering this multifunctional space. A micro refrigerator/freezer is tucked away in the knee-wall closet.

You could retreat to the spa-like bath when the home office gets stressful. Its daytime, natural light comes from the sun tunnel above, and the easy-entry steam shower provides relief from all that client work!
