4 Creative Garage Conversion Ideas

Is your garage empty, in need of a facelift or just acting as a storage room for junk you hardly use? A garage conversion may be just the thing your house needs. Check out these creative suggestions for fun, useful and stylish garage conversions.

Playroom

Whether you have little ones or a couple of teens, a playroom/game room is a versatile and fun addition to your home. A variety of games, a big-screen TV, toys and plenty of comfortable seating options will keep the kids occupied for hours. Make it bold, simple and, of course, clean with checkerboard tile floors, granite countertops and spill-resistant rugs and fabrics.

Office

A converted garage is the perfect place for a spacious, quiet office or even a shared workspace for two. Modern cabinets and sleek granite countertops are ideal for storing supplies and snacks. Canned lighting offers ambiance, while a high-backed leather desk chair will ensure you’ll stay comfortable for a long day’s work.

Outdoor Kitchen

Get the most out of your garage space by converting it into a semi-outdoor kitchen. A sleek bar, stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space make this an ideal option for lovers of summertime barbecues and get-togethers. Be sure to include plenty of seating options for entertaining. Keep it cozy with rich hardwood tile floors and a stone fireplace for chilly fall nights.

Hobby Room

Whether you’re an artist, a DIY-er, a yogi, a seamstress or a tinkerer, nothing’s better than having a room all to yourself to enjoy your hobby. Convert that unused garage into your paradise. Tile floors in a light color keep the room feeling spacious and airy; hardwood-look tile is an easy-to-clean alternative if your hobby is particularly messy. A wall of cabinets is great for storing your tools and supplies, and large drawers are perfect for holding your works-in-progress.
