Vela
About the Vela
The Vela is a beautifully designed 500 square foot ADU featuring 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. Every plan by CRS Builders comes with premium finishes including quartz countertops, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and modern fixtures.
This plan is fully customizable — adjust the layout, finishes, and features to match your exact needs and property constraints. Our design team will work with you to make it yours.
What's Included
Is the Vela right for your property?
The Vela works well for a comfortable one-bedroom ADU for long-term rental, visiting family, or independent living with a little more breathing room than a studio-sized plan. CRS Builders uses the floor plan as a starting point, then studies your property, access, budget, and permitting path before recommending the final layout.
Before choosing any ADU plan, it is important to confirm setbacks, utility locations, site access, privacy, and how the new unit will relate to the existing home.
For many San Diego homeowners, the Vela is a practical middle ground: small enough to stay efficient, but large enough to feel like a true one-bedroom home. CRS can help compare rental goals, family use, and finish expectations so the final plan balances construction cost, privacy, and long-term durability.
A consultation can clarify whether the Vela should be optimized for rental performance, family comfort, or a flexible guest suite before drawings move forward.
Property Fit
Best suited for standard San Diego backyards where a 500 square foot footprint can fit without overwhelming the yard.
Design Checks
Key items include kitchen placement, bathroom venting, accessible service paths, and keeping the outdoor area useful for both homes.
Common Upgrades
Homeowners often consider a larger wardrobe wall, private patio, skylight, in-unit laundry, solar-ready electrical planning, and durable rental-grade finishes.
