20 036Garage provides a versatile 1,162 square foot living footprint designed for those requiring a multi-purpose structure. Occupying a 40-foot wide by 35-foot deep building envelope, this two-story design prioritizes vertical utility by elevating the primary living quarters above a substantial ground-level service area. The 26-foot 6-inch maximum building height allows for a compact footprint that fits efficiently on narrow or suburban lots while maintaining a 6:12 roof pitch.
The first level consists of a 1,200 square foot, two-car front-load garage that incorporates a dedicated workshop zone for projects or storage. This configuration ensures that the primary vehicle and utility storage requirements are met without encroaching on the heated living square footage located directly above. The structural foundation utilizes a slab system, providing a stable base for the 2x6 exterior wall framing and truss roof construction.
Ascending to the second level, the 1,162 square feet of heated living space features an open-concept layout that integrates the kitchen, formal dining area, and keeping room. A fireplace serves as a central point within the common area, which also provides direct access to a covered back porch for outdoor transition. The interior arrangement includes two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, complemented by an additional half-bathroom for guest use.
The master suite occupies a private corner of the second floor, complete with an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in closet. With 8-foot ceiling heights throughout the upper level, the design ensures a consistent vertical scale. This plan offers a high degree of adaptability for use as an accessory dwelling unit, a rental property, or a primary residence where hobby space and garage capacity are prioritized.
Key Features: two-story configuration, 2-car front-load garage, dedicated workshop, upstairs living quarters, open-concept floor plan, first-floor garage, second-floor master suite, 2.5 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms, slab foundation, 6:12 roof pitch.
