After living in this house for over 20 yrs our kitchen needed to be brighter and more modern looking. Derek and his crew did an excellent job installing new counters, backsplash, and all the other upgrades we had envisioned. Great communication, prompt service and cleanup. We wouldn’t hesitate to contract with Modern Design Construction again for future remodeling!

Expert Casita Construction in Peoria, AZ
A casita adds a fully separate living space to your existing property. Modern Design Construction handles casita construction for homeowners across Peoria, Glendale, Phoenix, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Sun City, Sun City West, Sun City Grande, Tempe, Avondale, Waddell, Litchfield Park, Laveen, Anthem, and Buckeye. A casita can include its own bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living area. That makes it a real home within your property, not just an extra room. Peoria now allows detached casitas by right on single-family lots, with a rear setback as low as five feet. That opens up backyard space many homeowners did not know they could use. Whether you need a private space for a family member, a guest suite, or a separate rental unit, we take the project from design through final inspection. We focus on getting each build right, from the foundation to the finish. Call us to talk through what your lot can support.
