Detached 2-Car Garage with Bonus Room Loft – 464 Sq Ft

Spanning 28 ft in width and 28 ft in depth, the Alexis detached garage plan provides a total of 464 sq ft of heated bonus space above a substantial 768 sq ft footprint. This structure is engineered for versatility, serving as a dual-vehicle storage solution while offering an upper-level environment suitable for a dedicated office, hobby retreat, or guest accommodations. The compact 28-foot by 28-foot footprint ensures efficient land use, making it compatible with a variety of residential lot configurations.

The ground level is dedicated to a 2-car garage configuration featuring 10-foot ceiling heights, which provide the clearance necessary for larger vehicles, workshop equipment, or overhead storage systems. This front-load design prioritizes accessibility and utility, allowing for a clear transition from the driveway to the primary storage zone. The integration of 768 sq ft of open floor space on the main level facilitates organized vehicle housing and workspace management.

Accessed via a separate entry, the 464 sq ft upper-level bonus room utilizes the structure's vertical volume to maximize utility. With a maximum building height of 23 ft 4 in and a 10:12 roof pitch, the loft area benefits from the steep roofline, which creates a distinct separation from the garage below. This upper zone offers an adaptable floor plan that can be customized to support specific work-from-home requirements or additional living storage.

Constructed with an 8:12 roof pitch on the primary framing, the Alexis is designed for structural durability and long-term property value. The building's proportions are balanced to provide a consistent exterior aesthetic while maintaining a functional internal hierarchy. The combination of a high-clearance garage and a finished bonus loft creates a comprehensive solution for homeowners seeking to expand their property's utility without increasing the main dwelling's footprint.
