Three bedrooms. All on one level.
One thousand square feet. Three bedrooms. Two full bathrooms. All on one level.
The Lincoln is the largest single-story Signature Home in the lineup — and the largest ADU you can build on most Los Angeles lots without going vertical.
A full family home with a primary suite, two additional bedrooms, and the kind of open living space that makes visitors forget they are standing in a backyard building.
- Largest kitchen in the single-story collection — designed for families that cook at home every night, not just reheat takeout
- True third bedroom with its own door and closet — not a flex nook relabeled as a bedroom on the floor plan
- Highest single-story rent in the lineup — $3,800–$4,400+/month, competitive with two-story homes that cost $60K more
Timeline guaranteed in writing. Your contract locks in a construction schedule. If we go past it, we pay you a daily delay penalty until we hand you the keys.
- We screen-share to your address and place The Lincoln on your actual lot
- You see setbacks, utilities, and exactly what fits your yard
- You get a fixed-price proposal in your inbox

Open living & dining
Open plan · generous ceilingsA wide-open living and dining area that anchors the home. Vaulted ceilings under a gable roof or a clean nine feet under a flat roof. At 1,000 square feet on one level, the Lincoln has the open-plan square footage that two-story floor plans split across floors — here it is all on one continuous plane, with sightlines from the kitchen to the front door.
Designer kitchen
Full size · entertainer layoutFull-size refrigerator, dishwasher, range, and hood. Solid wood slab cabinetry and Bedrosians quartz counters. The Lincoln's kitchen is the largest in the single-story collection — enough counter and cabinet space for a family that cooks at home every night, not just the family that orders in.
Primary suite
King-bed capable · en-suite bathA king-bed-capable primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and a private en-suite bathroom. Close the door and the rest of the home disappears — a real primary suite with a real en-suite bath, not a slightly larger bedroom sharing the hall bathroom like most three-bedroom ADU floor plans deliver.
Second bedroom
Queen-bed capableA full second bedroom with its own door, its own closet, and queen-bed clearance. Shares the second full bathroom with the third bedroom. Works as a child's room, a guest room, or the second bedroom in a three-bedroom rental — the room that justifies the rent premium over a two-bedroom.
Third bedroom
Flex room · queen-bed capableA true third bedroom — not a closet someone relabeled on the floor plan. Queen-bed capable with a closet and natural light. The third bedroom is the reason the Lincoln works as a full family home: nursery, home office, teenager's room, or the room that turns a two-bedroom rental into a three-bedroom rental and adds $400 a month to the check.
Two full bathrooms
Primary en-suite + sharedTwo full bathrooms — one private en-suite serving the primary bedroom, one shared between the second and third bedrooms and common areas. Both feature Delta plumbing, Kohler fixtures, quartz-topped vanities, and your choice of shower or tub configuration.

Three owners. One floor plan.
The Lincoln was designed to serve very different ways of living — and it does all of them without compromise.
A full home for the people who need one most.
Your daughter, her husband, and their two kids need a place to live. They need bedrooms — plural. They need two bathrooms. They need a kitchen where someone can make school lunches at 7am. The Lincoln is a 1,000-square-foot three-bedroom home in your backyard — not a studio, not a one-bedroom compromise, a real house where a real family lives a real life. Built for the situation where "just stay with us for a while" actually has to work.
The highest-rent single-story ADU you can build.
Three bedrooms and two bathrooms is the ceiling for single-story ADU rental income in Los Angeles. The Lincoln rents for $3,800 to $4,400+ a month — the highest in the single-story collection and competitive with two-story homes that cost $60,000 more to build. Three roommates splitting $4,200 pay $1,400 each. That is affordable for them and transformational for you.
Downsize the house. Keep the space.
Your parents are selling the four-bedroom. They do not want to leave the neighborhood. They do not want to lose a bedroom for when grandchildren sleep over. The Lincoln gives them three bedrooms and two bathrooms on one level — no stairs, no second floor, no compromise. They keep a guest room. They keep a room for the sewing machine or the model trains. They keep their dignity and their square footage.
A full family home. In your backyard.
Picture the Lincoln on your lot for a moment.
Saturday morning
Your daughter makes pancakes in her own kitchen while the kids watch cartoons in the living room. Her husband is in the third bedroom — the one they turned into an office — finishing something from Friday. Nobody walks through your house. Nobody shares your bathroom. A family of four lives a full life in 1,000 square feet because the floor plan was designed for exactly this.
The listing that sets a record
Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, single-story, private entrance, full kitchen — you list it on a Wednesday. By Saturday, three groups have toured it. The lease signs at $4,200 a month. Fifty thousand dollars a year from a building in your backyard. The Lincoln does not just pay for itself — it changes your financial picture permanently.
Your parents' first winter
Your father walks from the primary suite to the kitchen without a single step or stair. Your mother has the second bedroom set up as her reading room. The third bedroom has a pullout for when the grandchildren stay over. They sold a house they could no longer maintain and moved into a home that asks nothing of them — thirty feet from the family that matters most.
Three bedrooms. Two bathrooms. One thousand square feet. All on one level, in the backyard you already own.
Premium isn't an upgrade. It's our baseline.
Every Signature Home is built to the same specification — the same windows, the same insulation, the same cabinetry, the same quartz. Nothing here is an extra. It's what you get.
Building envelope & systems
- Insulation
- Closed-cell spray foam in the roof, mineral wool batts in the walls. Exceeds Title 24 energy code — lower utility bills, fire-resistant, and significantly quieter than standard fiberglass construction.
- Windows
- Milgard dual-pane low-E vinyl windows. Energy Star rated, Title 24 compliant, and warrantied.
- Roof
- Cool-roof-rated TPO membrane (flat) or GAF / CertainTeed dimensional shingle (gable). All Title 24 compliant.
- Siding
- Smooth stucco or James Hardie fiber cement — not vinyl, not wood-look plastic. Built for California sun and fire code.
- HVAC
- Daikin ductless mini-split heat pumps. Quiet, ultra-efficient, and built for the California climate — heating and cooling in one system.
- Water heater
- Rheem hybrid heat pump water heater — three to four times more efficient than standard electric. Lower utility bills and eligible for federal tax credits and utility rebates.
Interior finishes
- Cabinetry
- Solid wood slab cabinetry — walnut, bleached oak, charcoal black, or white shaker depending on package. Not melamine, not thermofoil.
- Countertops
- Bedrosians quartz throughout — kitchen, bathroom, and any bar areas. Comparable to a $50,000 kitchen remodel in a primary home.
- Backsplash
- Bedrosians tile, full-height between counter and upper cabinets — mosaic, classic subway, or large-format porcelain depending on package.
- Flooring
- Daltile luxury vinyl plank or sealed concrete, depending on package. Waterproof, scratch-resistant, and rental-grade durable.
- Plumbing & bath
- Delta plumbing fixtures, Kohler toilets and tubs, DreamLine frameless shower enclosures, and Panasonic ultra-quiet bath fans — 0.3 sones, quieter than your refrigerator.
- Lighting
- Halo LED recessed lighting throughout, Kichler LED strip under-cabinet lighting, and Lutron dimmers in every main living zone. Spec-grade, not builder-grade.
324 combinations. You pick the one that's yours.
