If you are asking if anyone has built a small PERMITTED studio first, yes. There are property listing that even have permitted studios with permitted plans for a house. The key is to follow the county rules on what is allowed in studios.
There are also those that build an unpermitted place first then add a permitteed house. (The county does not seem to 'notice' these structures, but could...that could cause delays & costs to a project, if they ever enforce)
I have heard that oven or kitchen sinks seem to be a 'kitchen' trigger (we have a permitted studio that was added 5 years ago by the previous owner & it had both.... but I do not know when they were added.
That is one thing about this county, they do not keep the stamped plans on file, so unless the owner has kept them, you do not, nor does the county, have any idea as to exactly what was in the permitted plans)
