I’ve (almost) got a former blacksmiths forge in my back garden, it’s as big as the house. Is going to make a great retreat for me once I’ve got the house fixed up and can crack on with it.
Planning to run water and gas out there so I can heat the place and setup a compact wetroom. Idea is to be able to come in from a ride covered in mud, straight into the wetroom to shower mud off clothes, off me and off the bike. Also thinking about casting some concrete worktops and setting up a section of the ceiling that winches down to floor level with the bikes, so they’re all hidden out of the way. Obviously extending my network out there and putting a PC in etc.
Unfortunately, I have to leave at least one of the garage spaces for car storage, but there should be plenty of space to use it as a film room and as somewhere to sit on the rollers too as well as for practical man stuff.
Don’t tell the girlfriend, but I’m more excited about this than the rest of the house!
