Is this the right plan for you?

Most regret comes from buying a plan that doesn't fit your life. Skim this before you decide.

Great fit if you…
  • Need a three-car garage with integrated workshop on a modest budget (1,064 sq ft total)
  • Working with a compact lot — the design is just 38 ft wide and 28 ft deep
  • Want dedicated workshop space separate from vehicle bays (clear-span workshop zone)
  • Prefer straightforward detached garage construction with traditional style (6:12 roof pitch, 18 ft maximum height)
  • Require vertical clearance for vehicle and equipment storage (10-foot ceiling height)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need garage space for more than three vehicles (3-car capacity only)
  • Looking for a large workshop — the total area is under 800 sq ft
  • Want residential living space or accessory dwelling — this is a detached garage structure only
  • Require vehicles with extremely high profiles (10-foot ceiling provides standard clearance)

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Compact Detached Garage with Workshop and Three-Car Parking

The Tippetts garage plan delivers 1,064 square feet of total floor area in a compact 38-foot by 28-foot detached structure, designed specifically for three-car parking alongside an integrated workshop zone. This modest footprint makes it an ideal fit for diverse lot configurations while maintaining clear, accessible front-load entry.

Interior architecture centers on a 10-foot ceiling height that provides significant vertical volume for equipment storage, vehicle clearance, and overhead tool management. This verticality supports efficient organization, accommodating three standard vehicles alongside a dedicated workspace for hobbyists and DIY enthusiasts without sacrificing parking capacity.

Constructed with 2x4 wall framing, the structure is engineered for stability and long-term durability. A 6:12 roof pitch reaches a maximum building height of 18 feet, offering a traditional aesthetic that complements various residential styles while facilitating efficient water drainage. The internal organization creates a clear division between the three-bay parking area and the workshop section, providing an organized environment for maintenance tasks, woodworking, or general project storage.

We compared three plan sources and Archival's pricing + free design call won us over. Our builder said the construction docs were the cleanest he'd seen.
