For those who love where they live, the addition of an outbuilding can add value to your property as well as flexibility. If you've found that you need more in your property order to meet the needs of your lifestyle, than look no further than a detached garage floor plan. Over the years the humble detached garage has become more than just an extra space to store your cars and provides various benefits over attached garages.
With more room and storage space, detached garages and outbuildings can prove to be a great addition to your main house or building project. With the right architectural style, your separate garage space and new unit can open a wide variety of uses. These outbuildings can add hobby space, extra living space, guest accommodation, home offices, or whatever else you need to fall in love with your property all over again. Check out our ideas for outbuilding and garage design and find your custom garage addition that best fits your space.
