Dee Residence Garage - Westfield, Massachusetts

This detached garage in Massachusetts was designed for a small site adjacent to an existing cottage-like house built in the 1940s. The garage includes two enclosed car bays and an exterior area that serves as both seasonal boat storage in winter and a covered terrace at other times of the year. The gable of the exterior bay stands forward of the remaining garage to reduce the perceived size of the structure. The garage also has an integral storage shed for tools and equipment at the rear and attic storage above. The roof structure was economically constructed with factory engineered trusses. The exterior materials and colors match the existing house.
