Mountain View's ADU rules set the size, placement, and approval timeline for a detached unit on a single-family lot.

One team handles the entire process under one roof, so you don't have to coordinate a separate architect, permit expediter, and contractor with the City of Mountain View yourself.
Mountain View is Google's home turf, and one of the tightest rental markets on the Peninsula because of it. With Caltrain and light rail running through the city, a finished ADU here draws serious interest from tech employees who want to ditch the commute altogether.
No new mortgage, no new school district, no goodbye to the Mountain View neighbors you know. Just more space, right where you are.
No bidding wars, no move-in surprises, no guessing what a new house actually needs. Just a fixed price, on the Mountain View property you already know.
Parents, grown kids, or whoever needs it get their own front door and their own space, close enough to see every day.
We manage every step of design, permitting, and construction, so you don't have to navigate the City of Mountain View's process on your own.

Book a Free ConsultationEvery year that yard sits unused in Mountain View is rent, equity, and space someone in your family could actually be using.
Left on the table. That's a realistic range for a well-built two-bedroom ADU in Mountain View, driven by walk-to-work demand from the tech workforce.
In equity your property isn't capturing yet. A legal, permitted ADU is one of the few upgrades that adds this much value to a Mountain View home.
Without it, aging parents, adult kids, or long-term guests are stuck choosing between crowding your home or leaving Mountain View altogether.
None of that has to stay true. Here's what changes once you build.
Every floor plan includes architectural drawings, structural engineering, and Title 24 compliance, including two-story options that take advantage of Mountain View's taller height allowance.

"I'm usually stingy with five-star reviews, but Apex Homes absolutely rocks. From the first call, they treated my scattershot sketches like gold: polished the design, wrangled the permits so I never saw City Hall, and kept every penny transparent."
