House wasn't on the water but the freshwater ramp was about 1/5 of a mile away for the Lake. Salt water ramp was probably 2 miles east. Most leave the salt ramp and drive right to the fresh water ramp and dunk everything, flush the motors. It really pi$$es off the bass boat guys trying to get off the lake.

My buddy raced formula fords so he wanted a garage he could work in, take a car apart on or off the trailer without much hassle. His thought was the next owner would be a boater or a RV owner that would want the garage. Best part is the way the house was laid out the garage didn't seem to overpower the house. If you pulled in from the front you only noticed the big door but didn't realize it was so long.

I'd think "aesthetics" plays a huge role in how many people want it. If it is a plain steel building that doesn't match the house it probably won't add much value. If it overpowers the house that could be an issue also. If it is heated/ac'd then more people might be able to utilize it.

I looked at a goofy lot today, 80 wide X 1500 deep. Setbacks make the lot really unique and surrounding area is very mixed (125K dumps next door, 14mm houses 1/3 mile east). Builder is showing a golf area, a tennis court, a huge garage plus a guest house/pool then the main house. Nothing is more than 50-60 ft wide but very long. Price is high for the lot but after you built all that crap he shows you would be in it for 2-2.5mm and it would be very tough to sell to anyone (dry lot, water is across the street).

This is near my buddy's old house: huge garage (notes it can handle 2 50 ft RV's)but the house is a DUMP for 2.3mm. Garage isn't really finished well either.

I have never met anybody that said their garage was too big. Mine blends right in. Third door is a foot taller than the double and garage runs the entire length. If I had went deeper, all it would have done is add privacy to my back patio area.
