The homeowners sought to replace their aging garage with a more functional structure that offered significantly more storage. Their log cabin sits on a floodplain, meaning it was built without a basement or attic. The new garage needed to serve as an extension of the home, providing practical, year-round storage while complementing the property’s rustic character.

KEY FEATURES

The custom-built garage was designed to maximize usability, durability and aesthetic appeal. Highlights include:

• Stick-built construction
• LP SmartSide siding in Cedar paired with white Azek trim
• Andersen windows and Therma-Tru fiberglass entry doors
• CHI Woodtone Series garage doors in dark oak
• Double-door and matching single garage door
• Heating unit to maintain consistent temperature

THOUGHTFUL ADDITIONS

At the homeowners’ request, Renz Construction incorporated two herb gardens along the side of the garage. These small gardens provide a convenient spot to grow fresh herbs just steps from the home.
