The wife and I retired last month and moved to our Vermont cabin as our full time home. With 1500sf it's quite a bit smaller than the home that we raised our three kids in and that we recently sold in Florida. But the cabin does have a full unfinished basement that is unheard of in flat wet Florida.
We bought our cabin in the woods back in 2013 and it's been our summer vacation home until now. It came with what I would call a 1.5 car garage, so you could probably park one car and maybe a motorcycle.
I have too many toys and stuff. So my plan is to have a 3-car garage built with an open carport on one end for my Kubota tractor so that I can store all of my stuff there and use the original garage as my little shop. We encountered a few issues with elevation and ledge but finally found an excavator that could and would prepare a site for the garage.
Nothing that an excavator or two can't handle!
But now I finally have a level site ready for the concrete guy to do his thing.
