There should be entire neighborhoods built like this. Just think of the weekends!

I'd love to find a townhome with a 3 car+ garage. Less home maintenance.

Every now and then my wife mentions buying a condo. My response is that if she can find one with a 4 stall garage and an association that doesn't care what I do in that garage I will think about it.

She hasn't found one yet.

That's why I'm single. I bought a 3 bay commercial size gargae with a smallish country house detached. The present girlfriend took a hike. Lol
I haven't looked back. Just import the girl friends.

Default Does this count?

This has become my "detached garage" It's where I spend all of my time, including my "spare time".

Nice "garage" Steve!
Mine is an oversized 2-car attached to the house. Originally wanted a 3-car garage but wife decided she needed a huge dining room instead. Got the huge dining room and told her she was welcome to park in it any time she desired. She never did get to park in the garage!

I haven't read thru this thread, however, I'm sure one of you has a garage-mahal this would be perfect for.

You guys realize that MOST women have no appreciation of such things.

At my workplace at lunch, gals are viewing the internet looking at sites with SHOES!

I don't get it and never will
