Now THAT is a gorgeous garage. May I ask what something like that costs to build? Must be close to $80K or so. That would work perfectly for me.

Hi Richard,

We just bought this property & the barn was already built, but never used !
Not sure on the cost, I've had a couple "barn experts" tell me it was probably
over $100K to build. There is a plaque on one of the doors that says
Barn Pros here is their website http://www.barnpros.com/


We lucked out with the barn & the views...

Where in the heck do you live? I'm not asking for a street address, just in general. I ask because I'm living in the wrong part of Colorado after looking at your photos, and I need to move ASAP.

Just moved some toys in...

The inside - too small I know.

Once the Porker is done I start on this - then it'll really be too small. I'm still happy though - single again!

Now that is a wonderful setup. I'd just add a bedroom and bath. Most of these "garages" are really cool.

I could do with Shaun's deal, though, in fact, I more or less do. But, he's gotta be a lot colder than me.

Wow Steve.

Makes it totally OK to live in a cold weather area, if you can have a heated garage like that... So awesome!!

Heat an insulation were the two biggest positive garage add-ons I ever did. I have a clone of a Hawt Dawg by Lennox and it's more than enough. I keep it on a programmable thermometer, however it's 8 deg here tonight and the garage is still 51. It's not cheap up front, but the returns are great.

Type911,

That aint no stink'n Barn, thats a P-car Château! ! ! ! :

I knew it was going to be great, but that is a step above great. I'd have to say if you summed up what I stay awake dreaming about most nights that would be it. The location, the view, the Château, wow.

Here's Geppetto's workshop outside of Philly:





Starting to get a little cramped in here. I hope they don't start arguing about whose tail is on "their" side of the barn

I live in Hesperus, Colorado...just west of Durango in the southwestern
corner of the state.

Beretta, not a hunter, but there is plenty of it right out the back door.
Deer, elk, bear, mtn lion, etc..

Rich, that garage of yours is looking good! You need to get one of those cars out west next summer. See you in a few weeks...

Stevej37, that is one sano garage you have....very nice !!!
