My garage was inside my loft.

same exact thing with me - the one thing I didn't get. 3 car garage.

Ok, here's mine. Not perfect, nor big, but I'm happy with it. It also double as my detailing shop and I spend quite a bit of time there detailing for others. My next garage will have to be 3 cars, climate controlled (at least A/C'ed for the hot summer months), and with a built in wash bay for winter months washing!

When it was done a couple of years ago. Yeah, everything looks nice & clean.













And the current state with more stuffs from our growing family.

Wow some really nice garages! Here is mine, it at least has heated floors which keeps it cozy all year round but still needs quite a bit of stuff done to it to get it up to the same finish as some of these here but I am working on filling the empty spot rather then finishing it.

Stairs to the house main level


Stairs to the house lower level

This is the front, the height is high to match the house so it doesn't stick out like it is a garage. The 3 right windows are all the garage.



here is the side view

Great way to do a house so it doesn't look like it has a garage. Very nice.

Thanks, all though I do love the look of a separate building as a garage, I find an attached it is way more convenient. My neighbor has a similar 3 car attached and then built a over sized 2 car by 2 car deep detached and has a under ground tunnel to connect the main house and garage together, it's really neat and looks amazing but that's some big money to do.

I really try to be content with what I have and not be envious of what others have. But, hot damn, color me envious of your garage. Looks like there's plenty of room in there for a couch and a dartboard too. I'm pretty sure that's where I'd be spending ALL of my available waking home hours.

My wife laughs at me when we walk our dog in our neighborhood or others. As we're walking along, checking out people's houses, she looks at the house and never at the garage - I look at the garage first and, if the garage looks promising, then at the house. I'd seriously gawk at yours.

Congratulations.

It's the garage heated? That's a lot of open space to heat.

Yes radiant heating. I have gas fired tankless water heater that pumps and cyles hot water/antifreeze in tubes through the concrete floors. It works much better then heating the air and you don't loose to much heat when the garage door opens because the concrete slab is the heat source.

Radiant is the way to go. We're about to do that in our basement.

Yes I love it, we did it in the lower level as well. In future I will only do it this way if I ever built from scratch again.
