Alteration of the garage into the house for permanent residence

The high cost of square meters in new buildings, as well as the high price of suburban real estate forcing people to look for ways out of this situation. Our portal has already talked about how a young couple from the United States, instead of taking a mortgage to build a small comfortable mobile frame house. We offer another option from the Americans - Brian and Jen Dendzherov. This is a way to rework the garage into a cozy country house.

Brian Dendzher:

When we are faced with the problem of where to live and how much money to spend on the construction of the house, my wife and I decided not to get into debt. Credit dropped by itself, but the money to buy a big house or a full-scale construction we did not. Moderated their demands, I and Jane developed a project to turn "dead" in the garage comfortable cottage.

Due to lack of finance the couple have chosen to minimize. They gave up the purchase of furniture and complex architectural decisions. All the space of the garage about 50 sq. m is divided into functional areas. In order not to fence cubbyhole and maximum use of available space, the Americans moved the bed to the ceiling, equipping a kind of attic.

In the center were placed a homemade table-transformer, and an end wall took a kitchen.

Bathroom separated from the main space sliding partition, moving along the guide made of two bearings and the square tube.

Jen Dendzher:

All the furniture we made from steel parts, pipes and channels by attaching to this skeleton sheets or OSB sheathing his tree. It turned out quitebudgetaryand stylish. Of course, we understand that the design resembles an industrial and not have to like everyone, but it's better than nothing, or debt.

To save even more, it used edging board, which planed, sanded, and all knots and defects after coating the facades of furniture varnish only emphasized her naturalness.

Despite the relatively small area, the house is equipped with all necessary appliances - refrigerator, TV, full kitchen stove, a sink, a fireplace, air conditioning, etc.

 Instead finished with tile bath decorative plasterAnd countertops for dining and the kitchen table poured concrete.

One wall is given over to the storage system, and in the bedroom, you can climb the retractable stairs, steps which are boxes for storage.

 Another chip house began to turn the table top.

Brian Dendzher:

This is useful in case the guests arrive. The table top is shifted, and it turns out the table where several people can sit. we also made a sliding glass door. Related to this is a funny thing - when we built a house, many people in the neighborhood thought that my wife and I opened a small restaurant and were very surprised when, having come to visit us, no menu found.

To reduce the construction cost estimates path to home not made of concrete or tiles, but just mounted a stepped structure, and on the prepared base filled rubble.

The project was so successful that Robert and Jane decided, taking it as a basis to develop low cost options alterations garages or unused workshops under the full housing and cheap furniture.
