There is a house like that here near the Boise foothills area. Has three garages attached to it all in a row. Looks kinda stupid from the road and I'm actually surprised the city would let it thru. The old guy who owns it has it full of jet skis, a boat, atvs, and an RV/camper so it's just a storage facility for his toys.
Paste and street view this if you want to see it.
43°40'39.09"N 116°16'2.62"W I thought that was a townhouse or condo when I 1st looked at it. I thought all the garages were for multiple tenants.

My attached garage is 30x46, and has 2 levels. it works out to 2400sqft, of garage. I also put in attic trusses, and have 600 sqft of storage space above. When I first moved in, I thought there was no way i"d fill it up. 13 years later I have to park my daily driver outside... I do have cars in it though. Some of them not mine.

I'm guilty of having a shop larger than the house. Our house is about 2600sqft or so. My shop is 145' x 120', which works out to about 17,400 sqft. We are on 20 acres, though.

My kind of garage, but after a few years it’s full so another one in the south 40. Mine is 3300 looking to make bigger (might have t move my shop business down) house is 2300 two story with 2 car garage and packed. One man should not keep this much stuff.

We bought the property with the building - I didn't build it. I do use a portion of the shop for my small engineering business. I like having a 30 second commute in the morning.
