What is possible
on your land?

Most of what determines whether an ANJO can land on your property has nothing to do with the ANJO unit. Setbacks, slope, fire and flood hazard, how a truck reaches the site, where the utilities are. A feasibility study is how we find out — and it is where nearly every project should start.

Land questions, answered before you begin.

Figuring out whether and what you can build is the most critical step in buying prefabricated units, whether ANJO’s or any other company’s. We help you understand key elements that will not only affect if you can build, but also things that might impact the ultimate cost of your project. Learning these early will improve your project’s ultimate success.

1

Enter your address

That's all we need to find your parcel, its exact boundaries, its zoning, and the rules that apply to it.

2

Virtual site tour

Either on a video call or in a video recording (for sites with limited service), you take us through your land. We want to see your vision and the place you want to build so that the report we ultimately provide you has the most value possible.

3

We do 20+ checks

Zoning & ADU eligibility, setbacks against your chosen model's real footprint, wildfire and flood zones, slope, the delivery route for factory transport, and utility availability.

A specialist review

An ANJO code specialist reviews every piece of information to provide you with a report custom to your land and your project. Not a global assessment for any property, but specific to yours.

5

You get a clear answer

Green, yellow, or red — with the exact reasons, the rules behind them, and what each one means to the cost and timeline of your project.

Every report carries a specialist's sign-off.

An ANJO code specialist reviews and signs off on every report before it is yours, so what you receive is ready to act on. Every finding cites the record it came from, and anything uncertain is flagged rather than estimated.

The $1,000 feasibility study goes deeper still — and is applied to your deposit at order.

What you receive

  1. 01A written site pre-screen — findings by category, every source cited.
  2. 02A summary of any special considerations your site will require before a unit can arrive, and what that means for your timeline.
  3. 03A call to walk through all of it and answer what the report raises.

YELLOW — Feasible with conditions

No blockers found. Two site conditions — septic and wildfire zone — will add scope. Estimated added complexity: moderate.

Summary

A detached ANJO Terra is permitted on this parcel as an ADU and fits comfortably within setbacks, height, and lot-coverage limits. The property sits in a High fire hazard severity zone, so the home must meet California's wildfire-hardening construction standard (standard on all ANJO units) and the site will need defensible-space compliance. The area is unsewered: a septic system (OWTS) is required, pending a soil evaluation. Factory delivery is viable via Bohemian Hwy with one flagged turn requiring a smaller transport configuration.

Verified Findings by Category

A · Zoning & Use

GREEN
Parcel zoned RR-B6 20 (Rural Residential). Detached ADU permitted; parcel is not in the Z (ADU-exclusion) combining district. State ADU law applies: ministerial approval, no minimum lot size.
Sources: Sonoma Co. Code § 26-88-060; Cal. Gov. Code § 66314; Permit Sonoma ActiveMap (ret. 06/11/2026)

B · Dimensional Fit (Terra: 48′ × 16′, 14′-2″ H)

GREEN
Setback math: 16′ width + 4′ + 4′ state-floor side/rear setbacks = 24′ required; buildable envelope ≈ 95′ wide → PASS. Height 14′-2″ vs. 16′ single-story limit → PASS. Lot coverage incl. existing residence: 6.1% vs. limit → PASS.
Sources: ANJO Terra spec sheet v2; Cal. Gov. Code § 66314(d); Sonoma Co. Code § 26-88-060(g)

C · Site Constraints

YELLOW
Fire: HIGH fire hazard severity zone (2025 LRA map) → Chapter 7A construction required (ANJO standard) + defensible-space plan. Flood: FEMA Zone X (minimal) → PASS. Slope at likely build site ≈ 8% → PASS. Not in coastal zone.
Sources: CAL FIRE FHSZ Viewer (ret. 06/11/2026); FEMA NFHL panel 06097C0530F; USGS 3DEP

D · Delivery & Installation

YELLOW
Route via CA-116 → Bohemian Hwy verified for WR transport spec; one switchback at mile 2.3 flagged — requires split-load transport configuration (adds delivery cost, not a blocker). Crane set feasible from driveway apron; 60′ clear radius confirmed on aerial.
Sources: WR Transport Spec T-2026; route survey via satellite + street imagery (ret. 06/11/2026) — verified by specialist

E · Utilities

YELLOW
No sewer service at this location → septic (OWTS) required; 2-bedroom unit requires soil/perc evaluation to size the system. Water: existing well on parcel — capacity check recommended. Power: PG&E service at existing residence; ~180′ run to likely ADU site.
Sources: Sonoma Co. Code Ch. 24; Permit Sonoma Well & Septic; ANJO utility lookup table v1

Resolved During Specialist Review

  • Deed restrictions: county recorder search returned no CC&Rs restricting ADUs — verified by specialist 06/11/2026.
  • Riparian setback: seasonal creek on east boundary confirmed outside the 50′ riparian corridor of the likely build envelope.
