Above N Beyond Construction specializes in Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) across Greater Boston and the North Shore — helping homeowners add legal, permitted living space to their existing property. Whether you’re adding an in-law suite, a rental unit, or a home office, we handle every step from design to final inspection.
Massachusetts has made it easier than ever to build an ADU. Under the state’s updated zoning laws, most single-family homeowners can now add an accessory dwelling unit by right — meaning faster approvals and fewer hurdles. Above N Beyond stays current with every municipality’s local rules so you don’t have to.
We serve homeowners throughout Greater Boston and the North Shore — including Beverly, Danvers, Gloucester, Newburyport, Salem, Peabody, Marblehead, Swampscott, Lynn, and surrounding communities. From first concept through final certificate of occupancy, our team handles architectural plans, contractor coordination, and inspections — so you can focus on the future.
ADUs are one of the smartest investments you can make today. Rental income can offset your mortgage, increase your property value, and provide flexible living space for aging parents, adult children, or guests.
Ready to find out what’s possible on your property? Our North Shore ADU specialists will walk you through zoning requirements, budget ranges, and timelines at no cost during your initial consultation.
