$35k doesn't sound bad at all. I have been thinking about renting out my current house and buying some land and building a house/garage how i want. I saved the pictures of your parent's garage, looks exactly like something I want. Thanks for the info/pics. :rockon:
Did you guys have to make special accomidations for the flooring for a lift? As in do you have to lay a thicker layer of concrete down?
this is my little place..its got an apartment upstairs with bedroom, living room, bathroom, kitchen everything. its not completely finished yet but i'll be moving out there this summer.
That is great, a garage with a living space attached. Gotta love that! :rockon:

I always wanted to build a 35x60 building with a Mansard roof (barn style) so that I could put a nice sized living space above.
If you want some ideas for a garage/shop here are some of a buddy/neighbor of mine. It measures 60X80 I believe and has a 2-level bachelors apartment in the left side...and, a lift!! It's probably on a larger scale than you have in mind but take out the apartment and it should fit the bill pretty well. He had just remodeled the inside when I took these pics about a month ago...after using his lift to lower the L.
