Canyon Lake - Apartment Workshop Update

Updated: Dec 26, 2023

Progress is moving quickly on the Garage workshop expansion project... The exterior construction is approaching completion (we witness painting and stucco preparation) as well as the Mechanical / Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) systems on the interior.


The house will soon have insulation, gypsum wall board, interior doors, trim and some finishes. The interior work should go faster, as most of the work was preformed late summer when it was very hot (over 100 triple digit days).


The client and their extended family can look forward to enjoying the new expansion next summer.

Workshop Garage Apartment Expansion


The two-story addition includes enlarged family spaces, a new master suite, and functionality to an existing garage - all without compromising the character of the original vacation home.

This project includes an expansion to the existing 906 SF garage, adding over 3,300 SF of storage and workshop space. Ideally for country homes, large workshop garages house wakeboard boats, UTV's, 4 wheelers, motorcycles and whatever adrenaline fueled toys that you can imagine.

The second story is compromised of three bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a large family space. Each room had specific requirements by the client, which accommodates their children and grandchildren needs. Ample space in each bedroom allows for double twin bunkbeds, storage for suitcases and children needs and easy access to bathrooms.

The kitchen and family rooms are divided by a freestanding, oversized island containing storage on one side and decorative panels with extra electrical power connections on the other. Multipaned doors on kitchen cabinets suit the period of the house and add depth to cabinet-lined walls. Additional storage is tucked into the corridors, including a pantry space.
