We are actually in the works of designing a seperated garage, which we are planning on 30x36 with 10'h doors and a 16' ceiling and then adding a loft into the attic for storage. Although, it will be a hefty bill to build, we figure around 50k with concrete but without the driveway. I would eventually like to put a lift inside, so that is the reason for the high ceilings. We have been designing it for about a year now, and the plans keep changing as I think of different things, such as lighting, electrical outlets, heating, plumbing, etc. etc. I have removed some things from the plans, added things and moved things around a bit. We are hoping to have enough saved that by next year, we will be able to break ground and build...so I still have alot of time to make sure I do it exactly as I want it and not regret it later.

I hear you on the high ceilings.., The house I hope to close on can fit a lift...AND it has a Drain!!!!
