How Much Value Does a Detached Garage Add to Your Home?

Adding a detached garage is one of the smartest investments you can make in your property. According to industry studies, homeowners often see a return on investment of up to 65%, with resale values increasing anywhere from $12,000 to $33,000. In some markets, homes with garages sell for up to 38% more than those without.

But the value goes beyond resale numbers. A detached garage provides everyday benefits that make your home more enjoyable and functional:

• Secure Parking – Protect your vehicles from weather, theft, and damage.

• Additional Storage – Gain space for lawn equipment, tools, and seasonal items.

• Flexible Use – Create a hobby area, small workshop, or even add an apartment above for extra income or family living.

• Curb Appeal – A professionally designed garage enhances the overall look and feel of your property.

Whether you choose a simple 1-car garage or a larger garage with an apartment, you’re adding both comfort today and long-term value for tomorrow.
