Want to build a Garage and Design it yourself...
You should choose a Garage and Design that matches your existing House, consider Size, Roof pitch, Gables, Walls, other trim and details including shape and size of windows. The size should match your requirements, have you enough room to hold your Car and/or 4WD, including room to get in and out. A two car Garage will need to be at least 22ft X 22ft.
How does your Garage design impact your House and Neighborhood? how does it look from the Street? Are you planning to extend your House in the future, your Garage Plans need to take this into account. What about Window and Door locations, are they in the right location for access, security, etc. A properly built Garage and design will add value to your home and protect your vehicles from the weather.
A Garage is more than just a place to keep your Car or Jeep, it also provides a much needed storage area. No matter what size your house, there's just never enough room to store all the stuff we seem to collect over time, you know the stuff you plan to always have a use for in the future. It can also be the home to your hobby or pastime. Plan what you are going to do in your Garage and design it with this in mind.
You may find standard Garage building plans to suit you or you may need to have them custom drawn. Construction plans and Site plans will be needed for a Planning application, check your local requirements. It is always a good idea to get professional advice when planning any building work.
