Custom homes in Indianapolis feature a lot of unique details and ideas. As you start thinking about your own custom home, you might be excited about adding details to your master suite or even the kitchen. One area of your home you might be overlooking, though, is the garage.
It may not sound like much fun, but your garage can be a space the entire family enjoys. It all depends on how you set the space up and what you use it for. To help you start thinking about your garage’s capability, here are three uses you might not have thought about:
1. Customized Hobby Shop
If you enjoy crafting or working on a hobby, then you’ll need a specific place in your custom home to work on your skills. While working in the garage may sound a little bit like you’ve been forced into the dungeon, it certainly doesn’t have to be! With your customized garage, you can easily create a workshop just for you. Using partition walls or by creating an entire room, your custom home builder will be able to set up storage and workspaces that will help you feel like you’re just in another room of your house. If your hobby or craft requires the use of tools, make sure your custom home will have a large enough garage to not only store these things, but give you the room to use them.
2. Home Gym
A home gym may not sound that unique or like that fun of an idea for your garage, but really, your garage is the perfect place for it. Not only will you be secluded enough to work out in peace, but you’ll have enough room for whatever equipment you need. Block off a corner of the garage for your elliptical, stair climber, treadmill, weight bench, or any other equipment. Custom homes in Indianapolis with home gyms in the garage often feature TVs and speakers, so you can zone out while running or jam to your favorite tunes while lifting. Your home gym can have motivational posters, mirrors, and even a water fountain, so you’ll always feel like you’re at the gym without having to even leave your house.
3. Outdoor Playroom
The garage may sound like a funny place for an outdoor playroom, but it’s the perfect place to send the kids on rainy days. With concrete floors, they’ll be able to ride their bikes and scooters inside without you having to worry about carpet or wood floors. Not to mention, you’ll be able to have some peace and quiet inside, while they play outside. You can make the garage playroom even more fun with carpet squares, a TV, chalkboards, and other outdoor activities. Using the garage as a playroom allows your kids to still have fun with some of their favorite outdoor activities inside.
