If you don’t use your garage for traditional purposes and it’s just taking up wasted space, why not consider a garage conversion in Boston?
From man caves and kids’ playrooms to college dorms and she sheds, get the creative juices flowing and make optimal use of that space. There’s really no limit to what you can do. Perhaps you want to add a loft to your existing garage, make an extra family room, turn your garage into an office, or create a workshop: the sky’s the limit. You only need a great idea and a trusted builder in Boston and surrounding areas, and you have a project that will add untold value to your home.
Here are some great ideas to spur the creative process.
Man Cave
Do you hate having to be quiet in the main house when watching the big game with your buddies? If you had a man cave, you could shout at the TV all you want while enjoying a cold brew. Use this man cave as a game room, TV room, home theater, workshop for your motorcycle, or just as a quiet space to get some down-time away from the craziness of the main house.
She Shed
For the ladies, a she shed provides the same respite away from the main living area. This is a private spot to unwind, get crafty, hold monthly book club gatherings, or enjoy a glass of wine with the girls. She sheds also serve as quiet retreats for sipping coffee, reading, crafting, or working from home.
Kids’ Playroom
If you want a separate space for your kids to play that’s safe and close by, you can convert your unused garage into a finished playroom. Why not? The garage is already there, has all the reinforcements, is safe, doesn’t require the building of an extra room, and can be modified to suit the needs of your kids. Children of all ages, including teens, need alone time too. Why not give them a tucked-away spot to call their own? This is a place where they can store and play with their toys, keeping clutter out of the yard or main living area. It can be great for teens, too, if you use it as a game room complete with video game console, pool table and pinball machine.
Granny Flat
If your aging parent needs help with the basics, like doing laundry, upkeeping the house or cooking for themselves, but still wants to retain some independence, a granny flat or pod makes a lot of sense. You don’t have to renovate, upsize, or extend your own home to better accommodate your dad or mom. When you convert your garage into a room designed for their needs, they get their own personal space that gives them plenty of privacy but that’s close enough so you can check in on them or bring them a home cooked meal.
College Dorm Room
Whether you have a full-time commuter student, or a college student who only comes home on weekends or holidays, a garage converted into a college dorm room is an excellent idea for the older teen and young adult set. They can maintain their privacy and come and go as they want thanks to their own separate entrance and exit, but they can still do their laundry in your house or join you for a family dinner.
