You've gotta make sure that does have insulation or else you're gonna lose a lot of dollars out of that wall. Now you don't have to insulate a whole garage if you're not gonna heat and cool it, but you've gotta do the common walls between the house and the garage. A few things to watch for in the garage are where you have insulation. So, you can save a lot of money in the garage area and adding that extra square footage is cheaper when you build a home than ever. Now that space is cheap to add on, one of the cheapest spots in the whole house, because you don't have to pay for special flooring, you don't have special light fixtures, you don't have to pay to heat and cool that area, so you don't have to have a bigger air conditioner or heater. If you're like me and you have workbenches and toys you need a little bit bigger space. Now if you just park cars in the garage, maybe all you need is a two-car garage.
And if it's not big enough or not laid out properly you're gonna be disappointed the whole time that you live in that house. You don't want to have come back and add on later. If you're like me, the garage is probably one of the most important parts of the house and it's always important to build it right to begin with.
