As the others have said attached is the only way to go, just make sure to go big enough. A 24x24' is the standard size for a 2 car garage but unless you drive smart cars it's not big enough, 32x32' would be much better and would give you room to have storage on the walls. I have an attached garage already but if I didn't and was going to add one I would build it 12' from the current house so I could add an office and a big pantry/closet between the garage and the house. That would get the noise and any fumes further from the main living areas of the house and would put the pantry between the garage and the kitchen. |
