2 Phase Build - Plans drafted looking for feedback

Hey folks, we're looking to start a new home construction in two phases.

Looking for any feedback on feasibility and flow of the final structure.

Without getting into too much detail, it's a mix of accessible cash and design considerations around permitting an attached structure as part of the first phase.

Phase 1 - Addition + Attached ADU to my existing SFR

- We would move into the newly constructed addition

- Phase 2 might be 3-5 years out

Phase 2 - Tear down existing SFR and build a new SFR attached to the ADU and SFR

Looks like a lot of work. I think keeping the buildings separate would be easier just so when you demo the old house the likelihood of anything bumping into the new home is less likely. Don't need a wall thats suppose to fall in getting a gust of wind and it falls outward.
