This attractive garage loft can be used as a house by a retired couple looking to downsize in order to live by a lake, or by a young couple starting out in life.

The building features three doors – a garage door for the car, a service door on the side, and entrance door in the front. There is no basement as the ground floor is built directly on the ground. It includes a powder room, a living room with a triple patio door, and a kitchen with an island that can accommodate four people.

All the rooms on the upper floor have a cathedral ceiling. The loft features a bathroom with a shower, a closet large enough to hold a stacking washer and dryer, and two bedrooms with large windows, including a master bedroom with a triple patio door overlooking a lovely terrace.
