        "text": "An attached ADU shares a wall with the primary residence, often expanding the existing footprint. A detached ADU is a standalone structure on the property, completely separate from the main house. A garage conversion ADU transforms an existing garage into a habitable living space, often being the most cost-effective option. Each type has distinct structural, design, and permitting considerations, affecting feasibility and overall project scope.",
