An oversized garage is one of the most popular upgrades on a custom home, and for good reason! Garages are much more than a place to park your cars. Nowadays, they also serve as storage spaces, workshops, and even home gyms. An oversized garage can add much-needed functionality and adaptability to your home.

More Storage Without Clutter

One of the most popular reasons to have an oversized garage is to provide more storage space. A large garage can be a great place for tools, seasonal decorations, and sports equipment. You can keep things properly organized with built-in storage options like shelving, cabinets, and overhead racks. This added storage functionality can prevent indoor clutter or the need to rent a storage unit.

Multi-Use Spaces for Hobbies and Work

Many homeowners also like to turn their oversized garage into a multi-use space. Workshops and gyms are especially popular options, as is creating a space for hobbies like woodworking or car restoration. The extra space in the garage can ensure that these sometimes messy activities don’t encroach on other living areas inside the house.

Future-Proofing for Larger Vehicles

An oversized garage can also help you future-proof in case you get larger (or more) vehicles in the future. The extra space can allow you to fit all of your vehicles in the garage as your family’s transportation needs change. This can also help you make room for other useful additions your family might need, like a workbench, second refrigerator, or even an EV charging station.

With extra storage and functionality options, an oversized garage provides both immediate and long-term benefits for your home. At Capstone, our team is always ready to design garages that fit your current needs, while still offering future flexibility. Talk to us today to get started.
