20 Car Garage, Studio or Workshop! + 4BR house 1 1/2ba. 2 hrs NYC
20 car garage with attached 4 BR 1.5 BA house!

 

I'm thinking a bachelor moved out.

 

Well now that is pretty cool! Put a couple of lifts in, make a welding section, a paint section and you would be good to go.

I think you would have a pretty limited market.

 

I wish it was someplace farther south. Like in Virginia or Tennessee.

Oh, and I'd want more than 1/3 of an acre.

 

The wife and I have been talking about building a place like that for years now...$259K is CHEAP!

 

I know a guy, probably the best AX racer in the country that built a house on this order. 10 car garage on the ground floor, house above.

 

Seven garage doors and I didn't see one garage door opener. Nice property but it should be listed as 20 car garage with attached house LOL.

 

I thought the punchline would be "No significant other!"

 

That would be all I need

 

Well that's one I couldn't fill up right away but I could make it damn difficult to move around in

 

Sadly, I could probably fill all that space with my woodwork tools and my trucks + junk. With 10 foot ceiling height there isn't enough height to have a lift! But it does have a horseshoe pit so that is a plus.

 

Note that there are very few pictures of the living quarters, and the ones that are there are not very impressive, doesn't look like much money was lavished on it, so it likely is a 20 car garage with a house attached. By the stains on the garage floor it look like it was used to park cars in. Maybe housed some wealthy guy's collection and the house was for a caretaker/mechanic/security guard?

 

One can only dream.....

I have a 4 stall garage that I keep very clean and organized but with all my fab equipment and such, I can only fit my '49 and Momma's Honda. My F-150 and Exploder live outside. The clear coat on the F-150 has started to peel.... A 20 stall unit would suit me just fine.....

 

My wife and I have considered building a large pole barn with a nice apartment in part of it and the rest used to house a camper and any toys we decide we can't do without. My wife likes to dabble in woodworking and upholstery. She retires later this year and we may finally get serious about it.

 

When we built our retirement house here in Prescott we had the same basic idea but not the room to have a 20 car garage. That house must have belonged to a single guy. When the wife and I designed the house we both got what we wanted. I have a 1500 sq ft. shop, theater room, office, and bathroom downstairs and she got whatever she wanted upstairs. She even lets me come up once in a while. She even has her own garage so all of her crap stays out of my shop. Both the wife and I think that we built the perfect retirement house.
Here is a picture of my wife's workshop.



And this is mine.





And what it looks like from the outside.
