Garage additions are an effective means to use your property to its best advantage. A garage addition allows you to house not only cars, but boats, hobbies, or your mother-in-law. They may be built separately with high bays for mechanic's lifts or with space for a fully functional greenhouse, workshop, or artist's studio. It can be detached as a completely separate building or attached for easy access to the main house. A second story might easily serve as a large playroom for the kids or an elegant master suite. Depending on the style of your home, you can add a carriage house with an apartment upstairs or a small guest house with a single bay for a car.

A garage addition or remodel allows you to gain extra space, develop a rental unit that you can easily supervise and maintain, or establish a home office out of the house. By the optimizing its location, you can diminish the importance of your garage so your house becomes the focal point of your property. And a garage addition can also enhance property value.

• Most communities now are governed by a Home Owners Association or CC & R's. Consider checking to see which applies & contact someone to see if what you want to do can be done.
• Make a laundry list of what you want the new addition to house. If you want a workshop or a studio your requirements will be different than someone who needs to create a fully functional apartment or in laws quarters
• Find out what the local building restrictions are by calling your city or county zoning office. They can tell you what you can and can't put up.
• Match the details of the existing home. Match siding, roof pitch, trim and gable style.
• Location matters. If you want the garage visible from the street, do you want it to look like a garage? Can you move the garage elsewhere to better effect?
• Keep the proportions and scale of the new garage from overwhelming the house. If your house is small and cottagy, consider building a garage far enough from the house that it looks more like a barn than a garage. Otherwise, it will look funny.
• Plan for good access to the house. A breezeway or mud room can provide great access and a place to store wet jackets, backpacks, and boots.
• How many vehicles and what type do you want to house? Two cars and a boat? Plan for adequate room to get in and out of vehicles and to get them in and out of the garage easily.
• Consider adding pull-down stairs for additional storage. It's a good place to store anything that doesn't require air conditioning or heating.
• And on the subject of storage: add a workbench and heavy duty shelving and storage for yard tools, bicycles, or other bulky hard to store items.

An attached garage also increases the possible uses of the space; for instance, a detached garage wouldn't be suitable as a playroom, family room or master bedroom.

Alternately, a detached garage is ideal when greater separation is desired, as it might be for a home office, recording studio, guest suite or living quarters for college-age children.
