Expert ADU Construction in Chelan, WA
ADU construction in Chelan gives homeowners a practical way to add a fully independent living unit to their existing lot. Upland Builders handles the full scope of work, from site evaluation and design coordination to framing, utilities, and final finishes. We build detached backyard units, attached additions, and garage conversions, depending on what your property allows. Chelan's housing market is tight. Affordable housing ranked as the top concern among Lake Chelan Valley residents in the 2024 Lake Chelan Vision Project survey. An ADU on your property helps address that directly, whether you plan to house a family member, bring in rental income, or create a private workspace. Under Washington's HB 1337, Chelan now allows up to two ADUs per residential lot, which opens more options for most single-family properties. Chelan County also enforces the Washington State Energy Code and local setback standards, so working with a builder who knows those requirements matters. Call Upland Builders to talk through what your lot can support.
