it is if you have a motorbike.
it is attached, its just not very functional
"the garage has great access.....for bicycles"
"would suit someone with long term Nova project"
I'm hoping that garage door either has very little throw out the front or its one of those that rolls up lol
What is it with garages anyway? Two houses I saw on there yesterday were both advertised with the 'potential for the adventurous to convert the garage into an extra room' or whatever. Do people not put cars in garages any more?
garages are for kids bikes, Christmas decorations, tumble driers and fridge freezers.Quote:

there ya go... it might be a sod to get back out after though.....
but in the film, it magically managed to swap sides down an alley, so you might just do it lol lol
Loads of weirdos like to convert garages into rooms. They tend to be the same type that won't even lift the bonnet on their own car though.
This reminds me, my washer bottle has been empty for days. lol
what size washers do you need?Quote:

Its a great way to discourage car theifs
Over two litres at least. I am unsure how I would get them in the bottle though. Hence letting it run dry until I can consult with meritlover.Quote:

A garage is just a convenient brick shed these days, thats why I was more overjoyed at getting a double drive than a garage.
Exhibit A. A rented council garage and a mk3 Mondeo:

ive seen a few of them like that but ive always remembered this house with a garage in the back garden and they built a wall right around it and there is still a car inside
very true, my council lockup that ive had since i was 16 is a good size but i couldnt get out of my vectra once it was in there i would never part with it tho as much as the mrs wants me to get ridQuote:

When I viewed this house, we looked round every in the house and was very happy with everything, then I asked if I could see the garage (to measure to see if a Carlton fitted), the sellers face dropped.
With the house rather open planned, they'd thrown EVERYTHING in the garage to make the house look more spacious. It was full of junk, very funny watching him open the door saying "i'm not sure you'll be able to measure it".
I did, it fits and it sits in there rather well. Have a drive long enough for 4/5 cars too.
When house looking, we saw LOADS of properties that had garages and extensions or porches that blocked them....stupid!
its stupid if you value a car garage over the space required for kids shoes and coats, if your garage just stores junk then there is no issue and its pretty reasonable. As most people have already stated, in most cases a garage isnt for cars these days anyway.
if you want a garage to store a car then the chances are you wouldnt build anything in the way. Just look at it in the way that if it puts off other garage enthusiasts, then you can use it as a deterrent for other potential buyers and get a cheap house for the price of pulling down a POS porch.

this house is in hinckley. the bloke actually converted his front room into a garage. the bay window was ripped out. the chimney breast is still inside it. i did a stack of building work next door to it & was astounded. he did put an extension on the back though.
^ Awesome.
Currently looking at houses to buy and a decent garage is at the top of my list. :)
Something like this the Mr Hobbit lol

Something exactly like that!
find a derelict car garage & see if they'll sell it to you...
Doubt I'd get a mortgage on it though.
Squatters rights lol
I wonder if you can do that in a car these days... fancy letting me sit in your Nova Conad lolQuote:
