Burbank's tidy 1940s and 50s neighborhoods are perfect candidates for smart remodels — kitchens, ADUs, and additions that add real function without erasing their charm.
Burbank was built in one great post-war push, which means thousands of well-kept homes with nearly identical needs: bigger kitchens, a second bathroom, and more usable square footage.
Our typical Burbank project takes a 1,200 to 1,500 square foot rancher near the studios and makes it live like a modern home — removing the wall between kitchen and dining, adding a primary bath, or pushing the rear wall out for a family room. The original hardwood and street-facing character stay; the cramped floor plan doesn't.
Burbank runs its own building division with a straightforward, well-organized permit process, and the city has been genuinely supportive of ADUs. With studio-area rents strong, a detached backyard unit here is one of the better ADU investments in the Valley, and we build them from slab to keys.
From the Rancho district's equestrian lots to the hillside streets above Glenoaks, we know Burbank's neighborhoods, its inspectors' expectations, and what these homes hide behind their plaster — knob-and-tube wiring included.
