Tour of ADU designed by DWELL and built by ABODU

"The Dwell House arrives fully built, and everything from construction to delivery is baked into the starting price of $439,000" :(

Washing machine and Dryer in bedroom is a big NoOoooooo!!!

I understand all the glass makes it seem bigger but unless you’re on 20 acres how do have any privacy?

Any chance you'll be coming to Florida

Amazing ADU! Is there a 2/1 version of this under 700 sq ft? And, what’s the cost for this one?

Definitely love this!!! ❤

The price point is 50% of our property (complete with brand new house in Seattle City Limits ) … I’m sorry, but that’s just not financially feasible but for very high end properties.

This company is a nightmare. I'm 14 months into a "6 month project" and they've stopped responding to my messages. Run away.

How many sq. Ft ?

amazing

The Dwell House is nicely designed but it feels awfully tight. Though the ceiling is 9 1/2 feet at its tallest point, because most of the ceiling area is much shorter, the interior feels claustrophobic, more like a mobile home than luxury product. The Dwell House is great for one person but, again, tight for two. I see buyers of these homes flipping them frequently. I subscribe to Dwell so I'm surprised that, with their architectural expertise, they didn't hit this out of the ballpark. For the same size footprint and roughly the same price, the Lloyoll SKALI Bungalow prefab home would be my choice.

Really nice ! Im told these "cannot" be used as a primary home ? huh ?
Also its really hard to know what is actually Included with the home... each and every thing !?

It’s nice, but for $400,000? I feel like it has a limited market for that size/price.

How much is one of this cost

Get the price down significantly to where it makes sense in most of the country and I will
likely be a buyer as well as an investor in a company poised for the huge disruption opportunity

Pretty but could not hear a word. . G uy needs a microphone or to hold the phone himself and record. Or, see if you can amp it up from your posting. Not all computers are home entertainment centers. I think other channels are more useful. This does not happen with them. Air system looks outdated.

I love how you bash American sized 30 inch appliances vs the European 24 inch. Let me tell you sugar boo if you’re so disdain about the American standard size feel free to cross the pond and leave the golden state For Good. We Americans are loud, large and don’t give a rat’s ass about the dirty, sticky fingers European

Obviously designed for the wealthy to stick it to those that are less advantaged.

But it keeps lizards from coming in. We have a lot of lizards in SC. I don’t like when these videos do not give price ranges.

I like separation of the kitchen from the living room, so that's a no from me.

Dwell website says $389,000, that's a crazy high price for this unit. You can buy a full size home for that money unless you live in crazy California.

Nice tour! I have one question that regards something I've seen in the vast majority of ADU/tiny houses I've seen. The front wall is a giant window, often taking up a substantial part of the structure's entire wall space. It doesn't seem to matter how good windows might be, they always have less protection from the outside climate than does a well insulated wall. Also, if they don't have screens, opening them creates an invitation to every flying object and small reptile. I live in Los Angeles County and even with our mild weather and relatively bug-free environment, these are still big problems to that point that I never left my French doors open in my last house. I was sure to use sliders with screens for the house I've just built for myself. Anyway, why do these home manufacturers put floor-to-ceiling windows and doors on their structures? They likely make for a sexy presentation to a shopper but are highly impractical for day-to-day living.

Price is ridiculous.

Horrible design. The countertop height works if your around 4' tall, but then you'd be too short to reach the overhead storage. An average person would have to wreck their back bending over to use the counters and would need a step stool to reach anything in the upper cabinets. Why waste valuable storage space with a dishwasher? I mean really, there's hardly enough storage to keep enough dishes to fill the dishwasher. It's not like you're gonna have large dinner parties in that little house. The hallway storage is useless - I don't want to bend over to get at stuff, and it's so small that you cannot store larger items like blankets, craft items or sports equipment. Floor to ceiling storage would be much more effective. Being an exhibitionist, I do LOVE the idea of a floor to ceiling window in the bathroom so all my neighbors can watch me get into and out of the shower! Not to mention the fact that there's no screen to prevent wildlife from sharing my living space! I suppose you could hang a curtain over the window, but then you'd loose the light and would have to reach behind the curtain to open the window... OK, I can't take any more of this. I stopped watching at around 5 minutes. I don't need to see any more ill thought design, no matter how attractive it might look on the surface.

I really like! Very nicely done, good like really good quality building materials/

If they could’ve raised the roof and add a loft the bedroom

Great look I need 3 ADU's now the problem is I am in the East can we get this here?

Overpriced.

Nope. Nope. Hell no

Beautiful 🥰🥰🥰.

what is the dwell web site?

amazing ...

niceeee

I luv this my only concern is what about screens for the windows and doors?

Stunning design and fantastic utilization of a smaller space 😍

THANKS FOR DOING THIS VIDEO, ANDREW. I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR ONE JUST LIKE THIS FOR THE DWELL HOUSE. WELL DONE

No screens??? So many bugs and bees come with it I guess

So what is the final price of the home, as is shown in this video? 😁👍🏻👍🏻

Did you switch to a different house halfway through?

I’m guessing they sport a California price too? Yep. They do. I’ll pass.

My main disappointment is no window screens. We have mosquitoes in California, and flies. Imagine fly traps hanging from the ceiling. But you got the appliances right. Counter space for single occupants or working couples who don’t need a turkey-sized oven nearly as much as a place to fix breakfast, pack a lunch, reheat leftovers (room for toaster, coffee pot, cutting board, blender) is essential along with storage beneath it (I would lose the dishwasher). Too bad my lot has room for a 12’ deep, cause that’s where the storage is.

I’am a minimalist that would like it as a main house. Hope you might offer it in the future.
