    Finally, someone with a good grasp of the proper ratios when comes to house space vs garage/workshop space. Chuck in a few exterior windows and I would be fine with something like this.

    I would be checking how much weight above the living space can handle though - I suspect it might not be up to suitable floor loadings for workshop usage.

      Yeah, this is amazing. I’d buy it.

      Some won’t understand—especially if they live in a matchbox apt in a concrete jungle and have the mechanical aptitude of a liberal arts student with hobbies to match.

    i kno it’s evil to say, but when people genuinely have an american flag on their property i immediately assume it’s a shidpost or at the very least ironic. but it’s not, which makes it fun.

      Nope. These days it’s an indicator that you’re almost certainly dealing with a magat. Occasionally you’ll see an American flag with a pride flag or something similar below it and know that it’s ironic.

      Used to be that mostly only ex military or similar would fly a flag. Some folks would fly a flag from their porch for happy fireworks day or memorial day if they had family that died in a war. You almost never saw anyone with an actual flagpole in their yard. Flagpoles were for schools, government offices and such.

      For real. This would be incredible and it’s significantly cheaper than the value of my little 1/8 acre starter home.

    “Does it have an attached garage?” “Brother does it ever”

    ngl I kinda like the idea of having a house inside my shed lmao. I feel like that one “Race it, Break it, Fix it, Repeat” sign really says who the target market is.

    With no egress windows (or windows at all) I’m surprised they are allowed to classify this as livable space…

    Around me they have to be suuuuuper careful to not refer to any room lacking egress windows as “bedroom”, because it’s not up to code and thus isn’t living space. I assumed that was everywhere in the US.

      The rooms do have windows… that lead to the shed. So checkmate, you northern yank.

      So they bought this place, but it’s lack of natural sunlight kept attracting vampires, so they had to put up crucifixes everywhere to keep them away?

      Those look to be just crosses (popular with Protestants), crucifixes generally refer to a cross with ol’ J-dawg on it (popular with Catholics)

      Minus the interior decoration this is like ideal for me.

      My dream house is basically a garage with a house attached. But I guess a house inside a garage works too.

        There are private small airports with garages and hangers at each house. (At least in the US). Often grass runways and often self built houses. There’s always since folks that don’t fly but just want the hanger as a shop. Good communities at these places too

    “shouse located in the quaint town of Denmark, KS”

    This is one of the most absurd sentences I’ll read this week despite republican efforts.

    It’s weird but frankly I’d live here as long as it had high speed internet.

    No people and I could probably shoot off my back porch… Living the dream.

      shoot off my back porch

      What did that porch ever do to you? Certainly there are more efficient was to be rid of it.

    Christ that’s a lot of decapitated things.

    I’m assuming the inner building has its own air supply or there’s just so much volume in the outer part so all the ICEs don’t make everybody sleepy.
