Your house will have a service drop of most likely 100amp or 200amp. Check your main breaker in the main panel. If it is 200amp and assuming you do not run some huge loads in the house all the time you can install a 100amp 2p breaker to feed the shop. If it is only 100amp you should look into upgrading the main service at the same time.
The calculator referenced above factors in the voltage drop for the length of the run.
