Catch some serious style vibes with this Garage Apartment Plan 86568, where contemporary meets farmhouse flair in a totally laidback way. Clocking in at 1,660 square feet of living space, this two-story plan is all about blending comfort and cool, with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a half bath, and a massive 5 car drive-under garage. Perfect if you want your ride collection close by and your living space just a few steps away.
Roll up to curb appeal that's next-level: think sleek lines, a balanced roof pitch, and a whopping 1,549 square feet of porch space wrapping around the home. Chill out on the second-floor balcony and soak in the views, or kick back under the covered porches with friends and family—outdoor living is totally dialed-in here.
Head inside to a main living area with open vibes—12' ceilings keep things breezy while natural light pours in. The great room flows right into the kitchen and dining zones, so whether you're meal prepping or just lounging by the fireplace, the whole space feels connected and welcoming. There's plenty of room to entertain, cook up a storm, or just relax after a surf session.
Upstairs, the primary suite is your private haven, with a spacious layout and direct access to the balcony. The ensuite bath keeps things luxe and practical, while a roomy closet means your wardrobe's always on point. The second bedroom brings flex potential—use it for guests, a home office, or your own creative space. Another full bath keeps everyone comfy, and the half bath downstairs adds extra convenience.
The real bonus? That five-bay garage is a gearhead's dream, plus you've got extra storage and workspace options. The slab foundation keeps things simple and solid, and there's even a fireplace for cozy nights in.
This garage apartment house plan is perfect for car lovers, multi-gen living, or anyone looking for a sweet mix of independence and connection. Whether you're hosting weekend barbecues, working from home, or just living the good life, this plan's got your back. Surf's up for style and functionality—your new pad awaits!
