A Garage AND A Shed: The Best Of Both Worlds

Every now and then you see something in the marketplace that is the best of both worlds; peanut butter and jelly in the same jar, toothpaste that comes with a free trial size for traveling, and coffee already in a filter or cup that you just have to slap in to a machine.

If only someone would invent a diaper for my kid that also cleans up after itself….BUT anyway……

So many homeowners think of a shed as a place they can put their “stuff”.  True enough, it is that. But if you’ve got the room, can you imagine enlarging that and making it a multi-purpose building?   A place where you could park that special car, or bike, AND have a workshop, AND have place to store your “stuff”?

I for one might spend more hours inside the shed than I would the house!  A stocked mini-fridge or Kegerator and I would be all set….

Heartland has a building called the “Vista” that comes in either 16ft. x 20ft., or 16ft. x 24ft., with an 8ft. x 7ft. sectional garage door.  With a 4ft. storage loft, this building offers a lot of space for storage, a workshop and storing a vehicle ( comes with a wood floor though, an FYI for those storing vehicles) .That’s a lot of space for a man cave!

So why not just get a garage you ask?  Simple….too mundane, too close to the house, and too small…you’ll have family members putting boxes in it all the time and taking up your space which in time, will cease to be “your space” and the next thing you know, you’re competing for room with faux Santa Clauses and other holiday decorations. With a shed that is also a garage, it is defined as YOURS.  It’s not “the garage”, viewed as communal property amongst the family, but known as “Dad’s Workshop”, or “The Hubby’s Man Cave.” that is off limits.  So look into getting yourself a Sher-age, or a Gar-ed.
