equipment storage, or even living space to your home. Another wonderful benefit of these plans is their adaptability and can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/garage-plans\/\">even include an apartment<\/a>. Many homeowners choose to build a detached garage specifically for things such as their RVs or boats, even golf carts and ATVs. These items wouldn\u2019t fit in a traditional garage, but choosing the right detached garage can add the convenience. So, explore our many detached garages to see what you find, or ask a house plan advisor for assistance! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/plan\/green-oaks-100-2837\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/images\/plans\/BFD\/renderings\/0100 front elevation thd.JPG\" alt=\"House Plan 2837: House Plans with Detached Garages\" width=\"450\" height=\"267\"\/><\/a><figcaption><a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/plan\/green-oaks-100-2837\/\" target=\"_blank\">House Plan 2837<\/a><br>2,240 Square Feet of Open Storage Space<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For homeowners with acreage, sometimes large machinery and equipment can get in the way. From riding lawn mowers to vehicles for hauling items, to even a tractor or two, traditional garages simply don&#8217;t provide enough. If you find yourself short on space or needing somewhere to store your equipment and items, consider one of our detached garages that take after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/garage-plans\/?page=2&amp;collection=130&amp;newarchitectcollection=architect-115\">southern barn<\/a>. Large doors and ample space provide the protective coverage that you need to keep your things organized and easily accessible, whatever the job at hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter the reason, building a detached garage can offer benefits to virtually any house plan.
