Detached Garage Styles with Tons of Storage

As a property owner, there’s not many things that are more important to you than storage, security and style. Fortunately, there are dozens of gorgeous different styles of garages that embody all those elements (and more)!

From a simple post and beam design to a lavish 3-story detached garage style, here are some of the best types of garages that YOU can bring home today.

Post and Beam Garage

Post and beam garages are great for those looking for a more affordable type of garage. This two-story post and beam garage features high-quality materials and a durable metal roof for the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern convenience. The best part about this type of garage is the multiple points of access like the sliding barn door, overhead garage doors, and gable vented loft.

White River Series Garage

Pairing a small footprint with BIG storage is the fan-favorite White River Series Garage. This particular detached garage style is one of our most popular due to its sleek look and versatile floorplan. Shown here is a 14’x28’ structure with red painted board and batten siding in Stowe, VT!

Double Wide Garage

For something with a bit more space, consider a double wide garage. This type of garage has room for it all – including horse stalls, loft space and everything in between!

Prefab Garage

Prefab garages are a type of garage commonly built off-site by the builder and get transported to your location for final assembly. There are many differences and benefits to modular barns and garages, but the most notable being their unmatched solid construction and quick building time. If you are looking to get your garage built quickly, prefab and modular are different types of garages to consider.

3-Story Garage

Sometimes, bigger is better – and in the case of the Washington, VT grand garage build, that couldn’t be more true! This 3-story garage model features a white pine board, red trim, and a green metal roof for a subtle color scheme; however, you could customize your own garage in any colors you want. It goes without saying, a 3-story garage has MORE than enough room for all your storage needs!

Garage with Lean-to

Storage on the inside, coverage on the outside. Adding a lean-to to any different style of garage creates a covered outdoor environment for working, relaxing, or simply enjoying the day! Learn more about lean-to barns and garages from J&N Structures.

Garage with Enclosed Overhang

With a look similar to a center aisle barn, garages with enclosed overhangs are a popular choice for property owners with a need for several garage bays. Whereas other different types of garages may accommodate most tools, this style is designed with vehicle or power equipment storage in mind.

Pitch Roof Garage

A high roof pitch often means there’s a loft inside! This specific rustic design comes with an earthy finish, pairing a naturally colored board stain with a charcoal shingled roof.

Barn Garage Combo

A classic combination structure has a lean-to barn attached to another barn. The design shown above provides four stalls in one barn and a two-car garage and storage room in the second.
