Just get rid of your stuff people. If you embrace the TV life, you won't need it. And your children/grandchildren/heirs will appreciate not having to sort out your junk.

Our Laurel Oak has a standard depth 3 car garage. The depth of the double is 24 ft and the single is 22 ft.

If you have a 2 car plus golf car garage that is not extended and you have 2 cars and a golf car parked in it there is very little room for "stuff". If you do your own lawn and gardening as we do the equipment used for that alone will just about take up what space is left. In our case a larger extended garage was a necessity, we keep our other "stuff" in a climate controlled storage garage.

I am not sure what is considered a standard depth (inside dimensions) but it appears to be in the range of 19 ft. plus a few inches. I have measured many. It is difficult because a lot of the home descriptions list "expanded garage" but I have yet to see one that actually measures larger.

Crazy thing is the little ranch type house we are renting has a 21 ft. deep garage (inside dimensions). This is really strange since this little house is very small and nothing special as far as upgrades.

We have seen many beautiful houses that would be very good candidates if they just had a larger garage. We are beginning to wonder if moving to TV is not in the cards for us. Very frustrating so far.

Why do you need deeper garage?

TOM52, I've talked to you before here on "Talk of the Villages" about buying a house because we have our designer up for sale. I'm trying to open a private message you sent me but for some reason I can't open it, but I'll keep trying. We did lower our price as low as we dare. Hang in there TOM52!

We have an expanded garage. It’s about 22 1/2 feet deep. I just did a quickie measure. I think it’s also a little wider than standard. We are currently finishing some updates to sell. Don’t know your price range or desired area but ours is a 3/2 stucco home halfway between Sumter and Spanish springs. Close to Tierra Del sol.

Ohhh, you need a cart garage! You must have a Cottage Home?

I have just today put my Lantana home up for sale. The garage is oversized—stretched 2 feet in both width and in length. It does have a cart door. The garage is 25’ 3.5” X 29.4”. LMK if you are interested. It is a pool home on executive course with a spectacular water view.

OP here, we found a home with a 3 car garage so we are all set.
