They can be referred to as an in-law suite, a mother-in-law apartment, a guest house, or a number of other terms but they all refer to the same basic concept. A space separate from the rest of the home that typically offers a kitchen, living space, bedroom, and bathroom.
Mother-in-law suites often have a separate, private entrance from the main house as well. They can be attached to the main house or consist of a stand-alone unit.
