I'm currently planning a new garage addition on the house we bought this year. I'm a little limited with a 20' setback so I only have 38' to work with (58' from house to fence). I have had a difficult time deciding exactly which direction to go so I will be grateful for any advice or opinions you can give me. I have 3 cars at the moment but will probably have 4-5 by the end of next year. Here are the options I have come up with so far:
38Wx42Lx12H 3 Car Double Deep (3 single 10' wide doors - Front drive in - doors visible from street) 1596sq ft
OR a garage that faces the south neighbors house (no doors will be visible from the street)
25Wx50Lx12H 4 Car Garage (4 single 10' doors) 1250sq ft
25Wx50Lx12H 4 Car Garage (2 double doors) 1250sq ft
Cost is about $17k more for the 3 car DD vs the 4 car, and a 5 car would be about the same as the 3cg DD. Which garage type would you prefer, standard or double deep? If you go with the 4 cg, do you prefer single or double doors?
I'm having it insulated & plumbed for A/C. Planning on 1 lift for now. If I can convince the wife maybe I could squeeze out a 5 car if that makes more sense than the options above. Please let me know what you would choose and if there's anything unique that you have added to your garage that is a "must have". Thanks!
