Multi-car Garages

[DjD]

No pic's, just how I've thought about doing it if I could and had limited space. If you start the design around the garage you can lay out a 6 car garage (3 car garage, 2 cars deep) with the second story of the house only extending over part of the garage floor space. The bay furthest from the house needs a tall celing to house the lift and at least 1/2 the middle bay should be left for garage loft storage. The rest of the space over the garage is for the house. Build the kitchen, a bath, dining, living/family rooms on the ground floor and the bedrooms, bathrooms and den/office upstairs.

For added usability have the end bay have a door out the back as well.
