Garage project unveiled.....

[kickassgarage]

Howdy peeps. Was wandering the net looking fo something and stumbled across this place. Nice. People talking shop.

I have been working a little over a year on my garage project. Should be calling for rough inspections soon so I can start covering up the walls.

Garage is bigger than the house it is attached to.

My neighbors have lost their respect, but they just do not understand.


I have not updated the site recently, been working on the space above the garage to get it ready for inspections. Maybe soon I will update.

Fit pretty nice back there didn't it! Neighbors will get over it. I like how you don't even notice it from the front. Doesn't the wife even get a little corner of it?
What's the plans for that little space between the buildings, think I would have cemented that also.

There is not a legal wife to have a corner right now. The space in between the garage and the existing house will be a "green area". It currently supports a green sort of algae bloom with the fish pond. At some point I may build a deck to cover the space with a hole cut out for the fish pond there.

Thanks.

Looks like google has recently updated their aerial views since I started this project....Here is the before and after aerial pictures.

Kind of cool to see it this way for sure. The Satellite pictures must have been taken sometime after April, but only recently updated through their maps site.

Yea..the city and/or county loves that. That way, they can compare to last year or the year before and be sure to up the taxes. We have an Auditors website and I can go in and check every once in a while. Last year was the year they went around, walked thru every ones yard without permission and snapped their pics. So this year the taxes go up again. According to them, my house is worth way more tha I thought it was.

I think the tax assessors office came by to inspect the work that was being done one day while I was here. The girl started to measure the building, but got scared off by the neighbors rottweiler. I gave her the dimensions of the building. I do not think they will adjust the taxable value until I get my CO. If they adjust it too much I will fight it. I live in a mostly rental neighborhood and the property values are not up to par with most of the county.....as far as recent increases in home sale values anyway.
