A Guide to One-Car Garage Plans

A detached one-car garage gives you plenty of room to store your vehicle or other valuables on your property. Besides car or equipment storage, you can also use it as a work, entertainment, or guest space. We offer more than one hundred single-car garage plans in various architectural styles to accommodate your property. This guide highlights the features and benefits of a one-car garage plan to help you decide how to build yours.

Advantages of a Detached One-Car Garage

A single detached garage adds value to your home in several ways.

Less noise: Since an attached garage shares a wall with the rest of your home, noise from power tools, music, or equipment can disturb those inside. With a detached garage some distance from your main property, you can enjoy a quiet environment to work, practice hobbies, or entertain yourself without concern for disturbing others.

More privacy: Whether working on projects or hosting overnight guests, a detached garage allows you to maintain a stress-free atmosphere without interruptions. Visitors can enjoy their own area without affecting your daily routine.

Complements older-style homes: Attached garages are a more modern feature, while single detached garages resemble traditional carriage houses. You can choose from various architectural styles to match your existing property.

Protects your home from harmful gases: Cars, chemicals, and cleaning products can release toxins into the air. Keeping these in a detached garage ensures that your family breathes clean air inside the main house.

Limits home access points: An attached garage can serve as a potential entryway for intruders. By separating the garage from your home, you increase security and reduce this risk.

Room to expand: Your current garage may meet your needs today, but you can build onto it in the future as your lifestyle and family requirements change. Unlike attached garages, a detached structure offers more flexibility for growth.
