"BreakThrough
- Garages not just places for cars; convert into living spaces"
By Mandy Wolf,
Home Showcase Writer
Excerpt:
"Remodelers and
homeowners alike agree that if a garage becomes nothing more than
a storage space, it can be turned into the rec room of a homeowner's
dream.
That's what remodeler
Bob Latter of Perdue Construction did with a home in Eastern Jefferson
County. The house had an attached two-car garage and sits on about
10 acres. Because it was built in the 1970s, it had a basement rec
room and little natural light. The homeowners wanted to bring the
family upstairs, so they decided to renovate their attached two-car
garage.
Latter said the
need for more space prompts most homeowners to convert a storage area
into a living space."

with the architect and the clients to plan and fine tune the construction
