Detached Garage Collection
Detached Garage plans offer flexible, standalone structures that provide dedicated vehicle storage while creating valuable bonus space for workshops, home offices, or storage needs. These practical buildings are set apart from the main house, typically ranging from 240 to 1,200 square feet, and can be designed to complement any home's architectural style.
Most detached garage floor plans feature overhead doors sized for one to three vehicles, with ceiling heights accommodating both standard cars and larger trucks or RVs. Popular layouts include dedicated workshop areas, built-in storage solutions, and easy-access pedestrian doors. Many designs incorporate windows for natural light and proper ventilation, essential for both vehicle storage and workspace functionality.
Modern detached garage plans often include innovative features like epoxy-coated concrete floors, pre-wired electrical systems, climate control options, and plumbing rough-ins for utility sinks. Second-floor bonus rooms can be finished as home offices, hobby spaces, or accessory dwelling units (ADUs), maximizing vertical space while maintaining a modest footprint. Smart storage solutions like built-in cabinets, overhead racks, and wall-mounted organization systems help optimize every square foot.
Beyond simple vehicle storage, these versatile structures create dedicated space for woodworking, auto maintenance, gardening equipment, or creative pursuits. Their separation from the main house reduces noise transfer and provides a private retreat for hobbies or work. Many homeowners appreciate how detached garages help organize outdoor equipment while keeping the main house clutter-free.
Whether you're seeking extra vehicle protection, a dedicated workshop, or flexible bonus space, detached garage plans can be customized with dormer windows, cupolas, architectural details, and door styles that enhance your property's overall aesthetic while adding significant functional value to your home.

Exterior Wall Construction Choices
Most of our stock plans come as 2x4 exterior wall construction by default. We do provide options to change the exterior wall type. Those options include 2x6 exterior walls, Post Frame Construction, CMU Block Construction, etc.
Foundation Types
When de signing our house plans, a default foundation is set for a given plan. If possible, we include options to change the foundation type to better match your construction needs. For instance, if the default foundation is an unfinished basement, you'll have the option to change the foundation type to a walkout foundation, crawlspace, or slab foundation.
Please note: Some of our plans are designed with special foundation needs, such as post and pier for waterfront properties. These plans may not allow an option to choose another foundation type. If you find yourself in need of an alternate foundation and aren't given the choice, please fill out the alteration request on the plan page.
Right Reading Reverse
One of our more popular options is reversing the plan. Ordering the reverse option will not only flip the plan on the sets for you, it will also correct the text to make the plan read correctly while reversed.
CAD Files
All of our plans are offered as digital PDF downloads. If you want to make changes to the plan yourself, there is an add-on option that will give you the CAD files. Our CAD files are exported in AutoCAD format. You must have software capable of opening CAD files to use them. This option is great if you are in the business of home building and need to make slight changes to the plans per lot.
Cost to Build Report
All of our house plans come with a 100% free cost-to-build report. Just find the orange section on the plan page, type in your zip code, and choose your finish quality level. Note that this tool is for estimation purposes only and should not be used in any other way.
