Difficulty Finding a Garage

 

[benjy]

a decent garage is great + after tearing down my 2 rikety wood ones i built a 32X28 block garage, BEST $$$ i ever spent + being younger + a carpenter did most of the work myself saving $$$$

Perfect!

I always wanted to start with the garage & a single wide (in the country) & build a modular home (with poured, finished basement) on the property. Mrs. Bullwinkle keeps shooting that idea down...

Hmmmm... 4 Mopars and a Mustang.

Hah, you steal that one from the funny pictures thread?

This is a four bedroom three bath home with a two car garage and then a RV garage attached that is 18 feet wide 20 feet high 45 feet deep with the option to extend it to 60 feet. It also comes with a 2 ton air conditioning system,50 amp electrical service and water and drainage for your RV. The garage door is 18 feet high.

Thanks Molakule for the laugh.

Some years ago when I lived in Michigan's Upper Peninsula I saw a single-wide garage built about 90 feet long from house to road in order to eliminate snow shoveling. I was quite comical.

I have seen electrically heated walkways to eliminate shoveling. Separate electrical panel with a bunch of double pole 20 amp breakers. It just heats the ground to like 34 degrees or something like that so the snow/ice melts.

in the township i live in, you'd need to apply for a variance to do that.
you legally have to build the primary structure (IE: Residence) before any secondary, ( IE: Garage or Barn).
and You can't Hook any Utilities to a secondary structure without them first being attached to a Primary Structure.

lets just say my Freinds Mom has been through a lengthy multi year pissing match with her neighbors (Ex In-Laws) and the Township Zoning inspector and Trustees... Too much drama and detail to get into here...

You guys are allways a little bit envy about our Autobahn, but i am allways a little bit envy about your big garages in the US. Ours here are just dog house sized. Enjoy your garages, guys!

The house we rented for a few years in Dottenheim had a detached 4 car garage!

One door/bay was two side by side and the other was two front to back for an RV.

I pitched the idea of a custom home where the entire main floor/basement was garage, like 3000 sq ft. Elevator to the top floor residence. Wife veto'd.

I was kind of impressed when this was built near my place for the sheer efficiency, but they could have had a walkout basement. The back is all windows though. Needs a double wide garage door and a bit higher ceiling for a lift.
