Or, are you saying you will have 1 car there, with a 1-car spot open for a shop?
Most of the houses we've looked at so far have either a 2 car or 2-1/2 car garage. One had a 1 car garage. In the 2-1/2 car garages, they seem to like putting the washer and dryer in the extra space, which is usually taken from living space in the house. In situations like that, we discussed putting up a wall to make it a laundry room and air conditioning the space, so we'd be back to a 2 car garage.
Right now we have 2 cars but we may get rid of one. That would solve all but the humidity problem, though it may be tight fitting all my tools and bench in a 1 car space. We got an offer on the house yesterday (we countered) and they want to close in 30 days, so I may be facing this workshop dilemma very soon.
