Just don’t want a huge 6+ car building in the back garden and the current double garage is more than big enough for my needs of working on a car mechanically or polishing and cleaning it. The only thing I’d like really would be say a proper car lift but the height prevents that and then I no doubt would need planning permission. Also the house is worth around 350k if I go spending 50k on a custom garage build the house won’t then be worth 400k as I’ve spent around 6k putting a workshop on back of double, white panelling it and then adding the third lean to garage.
In around 5 years I will probably move and sell this house as probably be worth 400k then and as I’m mortgage free I’ll then put 500-600k towards a new house or buying a plot of land and building a house along with a dream garage, is the future plan for now and then sell that if I make decision in the future to move away from the U.K.
As it is now it meets my needs and I am happy.
Yes as mentioned earlier in the thread the neighbour said he would be happier if the water naturally ran away from his property and he drew up some plans as he is an ex joiner and my builder looked at and he has built a valley, there should be no water ingress and it drains spot on.
Once the front is done that sloping back will no longer be seen and as such will look neater, but by no means is it going to win any beauty competitions. Was just get creating a dry insulated area to store another car on my own property.
. I can't believe you said a few posts back the place is about 350k? Is that accurate? I would have assumed 600-700k even 'oop north' for that much space. Sometimes I wish I could just make all my friends and family move out of the South West, stifling.
) and a couple of farms and a garden centre, oh and a tractor/digger scrap yard lol. Then were smack bang on the Staffordshire/Cheshire border, it is all old farmland and green belt, the area does however seem to be moving north in value as a house at the top of the road sold for £540,000 last month, but that was a very large house, 5 bedroom, double external garage, similar size amount of land to my property though. For me that is what I love about our house, the driveway can take 10-13 cars, plus three cards in the garage, but I do only have one driveway so not quite elite tier enough for motors. Plus were detached with three bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, with a large open plan living/dining/kitchen area.
