The first floor can serve as a traditional garage, equipment storage area, workshop, or a combination of all three. With multiple insulated garage doors available, depending on building length, the lower level is well-suited for clients who need practical access and plenty of usable floor space. The second floor is what makes this garage especially valuable. Homeowners can use the upstairs as long-term storage, a private office, art studio, home gym, game room, hobby room, guest space, or future finished living area. The large windows bring in natural light, making the second floor feel less like attic storage and more like a true livable space.

Homeowners often choose the 2-Story Estate Garage for: 

• Long-term storage of seasonal décor, hobby supplies, sports equipment, or tools
• An office space, art studio, workshop, or hangout space
• Vehicle and valuable equipment protection
• Parking more than one vehicle

Stoltzfus Structures helps clients think through important decisions such as size, placement, siding, garage doors, windows, roof style, stairway access, second-floor use, and site preparation. These details matter because the finished garage should support daily use on the first floor while giving the upstairs enough light, space, and access to serve a real purpose.

What makes the experience different: 

• Helpful guidance - Get support choosing the right size, placement, layout, and options. 
• Made for your property - Customize the garage around your yard, home style, and storage needs. 
• Not one-size-fits-all - Select doors, windows, siding, colors, and upgrades that fit how you’ll use it. 
• Support from start to finish - Get help from quote and design through delivery and installation. 
• Confidence built in - Warranty coverage, professional delivery, and optional site prep add peace of mind. 

The 2-Story Estate Garage is a great example of the value of Amish craftsmanship, since the structure is built with attention to strength, appearance, and long-term use. From the framing and roof system to the doors, windows, siding, and interior stairway, every part of the building contributes to the overall quality and usability of the garage. The building also includes 12-inch overhangs, along with a 30-inch overhang on the front. These roof and overhang details help give the building its distinctive appearance while supporting long-term durability.

Before delivery, homeowners should review the building location, driveway access, turning room, fences, gates, and final placement area to ensure that the garage will be able to sit correctly and give the finished project a cleaner, more professional appearance.
