The Challenge:

My shop
I built this project for myself. I bought the neighbors home and did a lot line adjustment. The parcel had a bare dirt lot and in addition to doing a whole house remodeling project I knew I wanted to create my dream shop. It had to be connected to my property and have a basement a car hoist and plenty of space for me to be creative with woodworking and metal working.
The Idea:
Start from scratch and build a garage with a bonus room truss. This would allow for an apartment above.
The Solution:
We worked with the building department to build a structure that we could be proud of. It is the only two story building in the area so it has a great view as well.
The Details:
ADU: One bedroom studio apartment, full bath, living room, bedroom, large covered deck, skylight, vaulted ceiling, separate HVAC systems.
SHOP: Hydraulic floor hoist, Compressed air throughout, Hot water system, basement with internal stairwell, bathroom, gas heat, air conditioning, two repurposed insulated garage doors, Repurposed metal halide lighting. Music, security system.
$150,000
