Oops, I ment to put this here. Not tha gallery...
This is just a thought for now, years away if ever, but Im thinking about putting a garage in my back yard, seperate from the houe. I spoke with the city inspector and he told me there was a size limit, a % of what your house takes up on you property and 16 feet high I believe. So Im thinking of 20 x 20 or 24 x24 whatever, sized shop. A good thing I found out is I can put a basement in it., maybe give it 9 foot ceilings?). I can dig the hole myself. What I want to do is rent it out as living space as I already have a garage thats part of my house. Id still build it with a garage door but that would remain shut, but a guy could still park his car in there if it wasesnt occupied, know what i mean?. So the floor would be concrete. The top would be just open, but downstairs in the basement would I have to put any concete walls or posts to support the concrete floor above and the weight of a veichal or two if I ever wanted to just make it a car garage? I think upstairs could be a living room, open kitchen. Downstairs the bathroom and two bedrooms. Any floor plan ideas, comments? thanks
