Accessory Structures

This large collection of accessory structures features everything from detached garages with granny flats, backyard guest cottages, pool houses, gazebos, standalone workshops and hobby rooms and even a shed barn to add extra living space and value to your property.

Garage apartments in particular have gained popularity in recent years as both an aging-in-place concept for baby boomers and a source of rental income. Building an apartment above the garage has its cost advantages as well. The slab foundation and roof remain the same size because the homeowner is only adding a second floor.

Pool houses have also seen a resurgence as more homeowners look for ways to maximize space on their property for outdoor living. Today many of these plans feature fully equipped kitchens, fireplaces, enclosed TVs, bathrooms and changing rooms.

Whatever the need, this collection of accessory building plans can help maximize every square inch on your property. As you browse these designs, keep in mind that one person’s storage shed may be another person’s art studio. The sky’s the limit when it comes to accessory structures and The House Plan Company can customize anything to meet your specific needs.
