This project was only possible with cooperation and agreement with the neighbours to the south. The old garage ( ------ outline on plan) forces the access route behind the garage, both properties sharing the driveway. The new garage is positioned further back allowing for a direct access at the front. This arrangement allowed for a larger garage and direct access rather than shared driveways to both properties. Some small land slices were legally swapped giving the neighbours a direct road frontage and new right of way. The legal process of swapping two small slices of land actually took longer than the whole garage build. |

The roof was built using upside down V rather than A frame rafters to create more interior space. |
Just in case a four poster lift is needed at any time in the future.
