Villa Debuts ADU Line Designed for Comfortable Aging

Villa's New Comfort Series Offers Pre-Designed Living Spaces That Foster Independence, Comfort and Dignity for All Residents

SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 18, 2024 / Villa, California's leading builder of prefabricated Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and a leader in innovative housing solutions, today announced a new line of ADUs specifically crafted for those seeking a comfortable and wheelchair-friendly* living experience. The Villa Comfort Series, which officially launches to the public in Spring 2024, will support the unique needs of seniors and individuals with decreased mobility while offering beautiful, spacious, single-story spaces to age.

An AARP survey found that 77 percent of adults wish to age in their homes. However, safety concerns, necessary home modifications, and increasing living costs make this option challenging for many seniors. Out of those adults surveyed, 60 percent expressed an openness to move to an ADU as a way to preserve personal space while saving on housing costs.

"Villa's new line of ADUs have been meticulously designed with a focus on universal design principles, ensuring that living space in these ADUs is adaptable to meet the changing needs of residents. This line will promote comfort and dignity for all residents, empowering them to stay close to family or other caregivers while maintaining independence," says Villa CEO Sean Roberts.

For those looking to primarily downsize, California residents will benefit from Assembly Bill 1033, which allows property owners to sell their home independently of their ADU, if they choose to do so. This law will make it easier for adults to construct their dream retirement home within the bounds of their existing property, and stay within their community after selling their primary residence.

Here are some of the key features and safety modifications that ADU residents can expect with Villa's new designs:

• Universal Design: Villa ADUs are meticulously designed with a focus on universal design principles, providing a living space that is adaptable to meet the changing needs of residents.
• Mobility-Friendly Features: Villa ADUs come equipped with a range of mobility-friendly features, including wider doorways, ramp access, lever-style handles, and strategically placed handrails, providing residents with a safe and supportive environment. There are plenty of optional upgrades based on each resident's unique needs, including bathroom grab bars and wheelchair-accessible showers.
• Comfortable Living Spaces: Villa ADU interiors prioritize comfort without compromising on style. Thoughtfully designed layouts optimize space utilization while high-quality finishes and fixtures add a touch of luxury to everyday living.
• Tailored for Your Future: Villa understands the importance of planning for the future. Villa ADUs provide a seamless transition into a comfortable and secure living environment for those entering their golden years.
