        "text": "Yes, it is often possible to incorporate a living space or apartment above an attached garage, commonly referred to as an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or a bonus room. This requires careful planning and design to ensure structural integrity, proper insulation, utility connections (electrical, plumbing, HVAC), and compliance with local zoning and building codes. Adding such a space can significantly increase your property's functionality and value, offering potential rental income or extra living quarters for family. We can help assess feasibility and design options.",
