The Lerner Story

Raymond and Sharla are raising two children, eight and four, while juggling their careers and working hard to stay connected with their parents and family both on the east coast and in the pacific northwest. Their youngest is also on the autism spectrum and requires extra care, and will likely be living at home in the future.

With two kids, two sets of grandparents and Raymond’s sister visiting from Portland with her own four children regularly, the Rao’s needed more independent, livable space to house family for long stays. Combined with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and their lifestyle changing forever, the Rao’s decided that an ADU would be the perfect solution.

Concerned about the quality of mobile home or factory housing, as well as property limitations like their pool and corner lot, the Rao’s made the decision that Acton ADU would be the perfect fit to build a thoughtfully designed, high quality home that would meet all of their needs for years to come.

Site Challenges

Needed a pump for the sewer line because not enough slope, trenched through her garage to avoid having to replace special stamped concrete on her patio, Heather has loves her aesthetics so spent time with designers to select green cabinets, clear glass in the entry door, went with the black Trinsic window upgrade, other little details. Enrique will probably have more to share.
