Re: Parking Collector cars with Daily Drivers
I measured carefully! Honest I did.
Now how many times does it take to make up 1,000 ft using a 25 ft tape?
Actually on pic two a lady came out to the mail box and I rolled down the window and asked her if they were seperate or connected inside and she was happy to explain that they were seperate and she liked them that way.
If a guy had a narrow lot you could use the smaller one to go deeper than just for one car on one side of the house and park 3 or even 4 cars end to end and still not have a problem with the neighbors. I would bet that it would resell better that way too. It would be a great idea to use it on the north side of the house as a buffer to hold down cold north winds in the winter. You would not have to heat that area as warm as the rest of the house and having a dead air space like that will help on the heating bills.
I remember living in a house with the garage on the north and it sure made the house warmer in the winter.
The house I live in now, had the original two car garage O/H door closed in and they made a clubroom out of it and went behind the back wall of the room and built a two car garage 24x32 on a lower level with a staircase walking down into it from the room above.
Of course I am on a wide, almost 1 acre lot on the crest of a hill too, so there was lots of room to run the driveway down to the back of the lot.
Now I am working on plans to build a 4,000 sf two story addition on the back next to the existing two car garage.
I plan on using a metal building contractor to do it and then have it finished on the outside in rock to match the rest of the house. Termites are a real pain in this part of the woods that I live in.
