Four houses down somebody bought a house and an open lot. This is what they did. Seven car garage.
“Nope, just envious.”
The rancor is palpable.

With 2 campers and boat? Seems like an odd layout

And the entire smaller building may be devoted to RV or boat storage based on the tall garage doors. Imagine having enough money to do that and devoting such little thought to living space or even aesthetics .

Why the hate? Make friends (in a Covid-19 safe way) ... the person is bound to have some interesting toys.

Yeah, no idea what's going in there. It'll be fun to see and shoot the shit with the guy. It looks better painted and there are two more stories below not visible from the front. Steep drop down back.

No hate, envy. We save a big percentage of income that prevents me from doing something like this. The rancor part was sarcasm.

Having the little house on the high dollar block is more lucrative than the spendy ones. That said all my neighbors please keep adding on!

So either he has multiple RVs and/or big boats or there’s going to be a lift in there. Might be a good neighbor to have.

You'll be in better shape to weather the storm then, saving is smart

Yeah, we’re both secure with income and savings . The dip in our portfolio sucks, but inconsequential at this point in our lives.

There’s a lot that is interesting with the house. I always defer to the great Peter Egan with respect to garage planning.

Two more stories below is parking your house on the side of a cliff. I hope the foundation comes in about 100' closer to the street than the frontage. Or was that their separate garage is two additional stories lower? Same answer but more interesting solution somehow.

When I was looking at houses, I showed up to one open house, and after touring the inside asked, “mind if i take measurements of the garage?” “I don’t think anyone has ever asked me that? Why ”
“Oh I want to know if there is room for a lift. Every real estate agent focuses on the house, yet skimps on details for the garage ”
