Featured 2-Car Garage can be MORE than a Garage – The Garage Plan Shop

Two-Car Garage Plan 057G-0003Check out this basic two-car garage plan measuring 22’ X 24’ with a 17’ X 7’ overhead door. That’s enough space for two cars plus a workbench or small storage space. Finally, the garage offers 8’ ceilings and windows for natural lighting. Those are just the basics. But let’s think outside the box, or for that matter, the garage, for just a minute. This detached garage plan provides 528 square feet accessed by not only a back door but that spacious overhead door in front. What a great way to haul projects in and out of a woodshop or art studio. Or, how about the ultimate garden shed with room enough for shovels, hoes, tiller, lawn mower and even a tractor?  There’s room for a garage band to practice and to back in the van to load up equipment. Maybe going out to the gym doesn’t have to be any further than your own gym that opens up to view the great outdoors on sunny days. What about a meeting space with plenty of room for working on projects for your children’s scout troop? Or maybe you just get tired of hauling things up and downstairs to the basement and would enjoy some extra, easily accessed storage space? For whatever activities or storage space that you find lacking in your home, consider this basic two-car garage plan to accommodate your needs.

Know the Basics about 2-Car Garage Plans – The Garage Plan Shop

2-Car Garage Plan 047G-0002Sometimes referred to as double garages, the 2-car garage plans featured at The Garage Plan Shop are detached garages designed to store two vehicles. Like home plans, they are available in a broad range of architectural styles, including Craftsman, modern, country and traditional. In addition to a variety of styles, two-car garage plans come in a multitude of sizes giving you plenty to choose from in order to find one that will fit on your lot. The exteriors of these designs feature various rooflines such as gable, reverse gable and hip. In addition, several exterior finishes like brick, siding and stucco work together with different overhead door styles creating an array of exterior combinations for the most stylish looks, but if you want to keep your original door then you might as well get a quick garage door repair to keep it functioning as it was when it was brand new. These are just some of the things to consider if you’re planning to build a double garage with the help of a residential additions contractor.

 

Many 2-car garage plans incorporate convenient features like a handy service entry or a storage space inside. Other thoughtful features include a workshop, upper level loft or drive-thru bay. Boat owners might consider two-car garage plans designed with extra deep bays nicely accommodating a boat or trailer without being cramped for space. For those who only need sheltered parking for one vehicle, a 2-car garage design still can be practical. Simply use the second bay for storage of lawn and garden supplies, the recycling center, the family bikes or mechanics tools. Others might opt to use the second bay for a workshop or craft area. The possibilities are endless. Flexible and functional, detached 2-car garage plans will complement and add value to your home when situated in the backyard or on the side of your house.

RV Garage Plan for your Motor Home and Family Vehicles

RV Garage Plan 007H-0010RV garage plans, also known as motor home or motor coach garages, are designed to provide shelter to an RV or camper. The RV stall features an extra tall overhead door, a taller than average ceiling, an elevated roof and an extra deep bay accommodating the height and length of the motor home. While they are generally designed for storing a recreational vehicle, the parking space is also well suited for auto mechanics who’d like to install a lift for car maintenance. Also, these garages can accommodate large boats. Sometimes, the RV bay is attached to another usable space such as a two-car garage, ideal for the everyday family vehicles, or a workshop making them even more practical and useful. Many floor plans even offer special features such as a half bath, loft, drive-thru bay or workbench. From a single RV bay to a 2-car or 3-car garage with attached RV stall, garage plans with RV storage are available in a wide range of sizes and styles making it easy to find the right one to fit your lot and complement your home. They work well in the side yard or backyard and are sure to keep your home away from home, safe when you’re not on the road. Browse this collection of RV garage plans.
