        "text": "Choosing between a standalone office structure and an attached home office addition involves weighing different benefits and considerations. An attached addition offers direct access from your main living space, often simplifying utility connections and maintaining a cohesive architectural style. A standalone structure, like an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or a converted detached garage, provides maximum separation and privacy, which can be ideal for client meetings or minimizing household distractions.
