I'm sure that most of us have devoted the occasional bit of lottery win wish time to the ideal car-hoarding scenario, a farm somewhere far flung with loads of barns and outbuildings perhaps? I got to hear about this place, on the market at just under £3M; Pleasant enough if you like that sort of thing although the interior decor is a bit kitsch for my taste. The double garage looks a tad disappointing; . . . but wait, there's a car lift in one of the bays, I wonder where that might go? Now that's more like it! The entire footprint of the house has a basement garage level! When you've filled the basement garage and double garage there's the courtyard and drive to fill up as well! Could anyone lend me £3.2 Million? (It needs redecorating!)

But would you not need twice that has a minimum - you need to fill the garage once you purchase the property and the stamp duty alone is £384k Wow £384k - I could fill a basement full of vehicles with that money

Everything is too clean.
I'd need completely seperated bays for storage of 'nice' vehicles, spares vehicles, spares, two fully kitted workshops both clean and dirty, paintbooth, general working area etc.
That doesn't even touch on the outside storage space and room to 'test and play'.....

That is probably similar to how i would design it if i had the money (would keep the wife happy), either that or side ramp to access it then a bat cave style escape tunnel at the edge of the acreage lol

I'd buy it just because I'd be able to curse word our lass off anywhere in the house by making noise exactly where she was upstairs.

Good Christ. I thought MrsSE and I were doing well with space to build a four car garage...!

Jesus. That really is some house, and the garage is the thing of dreams... currently thinking about how surprised I’d be at how quickly it filled up with hoarded parts and stuff I keep just incase

I quite often think about what I would buy with a lottery win.
I could fill that with cars within a day. So many cars I want.
Viewing a house next week, with a 1.3 acre garden, already found 15x15 meter barn that I want, and planning what cars to buy. Haven’t bought it yet.

I don't understand why you wouldn't look for a 1.3 acre barn... Civil engineering issues aside.
