Nanabode The Link

The Link by Nanabode is a 799 sq ft, two-bedroom, one-bath ADU plan designed around a single architectural idea: dissolving the boundary between indoor and outdoor living. The plan places matching doors at the front and rear of the central living space, creating a literal pass-through that links the main house to the backyard, hence the name. When both sets of doors are open, the living room becomes a covered breezeway connecting front yard, home, and back yard as one continuous space.

This is a strong fit for buyers in climates that reward indoor-outdoor living (Southwest, California, the Sunbelt) and for ADU site plans where the unit sits between a primary residence and a yard or garden that the owner wants to remain visually and physically connected to. The two-bedroom configuration also makes the Link viable as a small primary residence, a multi-generational suite, or a higher-value rental than a one-bedroom comparable.

The 38'-3" x 28'-10" footprint is wider than typical compact ADU plans, which is what enables the front-to-rear circulation. At 17'-5" overall height, the Link sits within typical residential height limits while accommodating its single-story configuration. Buyers should plan for a lot with sufficient depth to take advantage of the indoor-outdoor design intent, the plan loses much of its appeal on a tightly constrained lot.

This listing represents Nanabode's architectural plan, not a built structure. The Pricing Set ($299) provides basic floor plans and exterior elevations sufficient for early-stage feasibility and budgeting. The Full Construction Set ($2,299) includes detailed floor plans, building sections, interior elevations, electrical and lighting plans, materials specifications, and structural framing plans, everything needed to permit and build, paired with a local structural engineer for the foundation.
