I am new to the forum and asking for help from the pro's!
I want to build a RV Garage/man-cave with the following attributes in an L shape:
Based on space constraints of 25ft wide at RV Front Door but can extend up to 50 feet back and at half the distance deep can turn right and wrap behind my house for the man-cave/work shop/hot-rod parking.
The rear section of the shop will be a dirty work area/weld shop/need for hotwork and ventilation
This will also allow the man-cave section to be built with some home styling to look good from the back of my house and look like a guest home from the outside. Goal is to walk off my deck from my house and right into a nice man-cave with bar, etc.
From the left rear outer wall, I will put in a 10X12 door so you can drive down the side of the RV garage and enter from the rear left, drive straight through the rear RV section and into the man-cave/hotrod shop/2post lift. Means even the man-cave section should have high ceilings.
I want it stick built with 8/12 pitch and high ceilings to match my home, and either polished black concrete floors, or polished rust concrete floors.
Anyone see any plans, or know of any garages like this?
What are the pitfalls of building something like this detached vs. just building it all onto my existing home?
I realize this is a lot to ponder... I have a builder scratching his head and making sure my ideas all fall into the County's requirements. I have searched plans an not finding anything that quite captures what I am trying to do.
Thanks for any support/ideas you can lend. I will probably be house poor after this...
