I always dreamed of living in a firehouse, though my idea was to leave the garage portion of the firehouse capable of storing and servicing/restoring cars...
Bad ass Pinky. Jealous! |
I think this building should be condemned. There's serious metal fatigue in all the load-bearing members, the wiring is substandard, it's completely inadequate for our power needs, and the neighborhood is like a demilitarized zone.
I would have said that to the realtor verbatim for kicks lol. Love the kitchen though, the only complaint I have about mine is that it is a little cramped. It would be awesome to be as open as yours. |

Whaaat!? You can't get insurance with a pole? You can bet your ass if I lived in an old fire station with a hole in the floor, I'd find some creative way to get from the 2nd to 1st floor, aside from falling.

HAHAHAHAHA. This is *EXACTLY* what I was thinking when I started reading this post, and I literally just burst out laughing when I saw you'd posted it. Pinky, in case you didn't get it, this is a quote from Ghostbusters, spoken by Egon, when the three were in the process of purchasing an old Firehouse to convert into their HQ. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1392215711 You seriously have the coolest house of anyone I know. And a friend of mine used to live in this house: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1392215711 Yours is better. |
Wait... So is the garage useable as a garage? you just have to hop a curb to get in there?
|
Very, very, very jealous.

Pinky doesn't seem the type to let a curb cut stop him from successfully getting vehicles in and out of that edifice.
Also, you should paint this on your front walk: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1392216132 (went to visit) https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1392216132 |

This is basicaly my dream house. I hate living in Cities but if I did, this is what I would live in.
Honestly you can build yourself some ramps that you can use to not curb hop some of your lowered cars. So very very jelly right now. |
What's the A/C cost going to be in the heat of summer?
Seems like there's an awful lot of cubic feet to keep cool... Looks amazing |
this is awesome!!!!!! I tried to convince my wife to let me build an 80X100 steel building with 30Ft ceilings to have a huge garage down stairs and 8000sqft living space upstairs. she liked it until she thought about the fact that she would hear and smell the cars all the time. :( So now I will just have to build a big garage for myself.
|
So it looks like three garages converted to a single door and an entrance?
You have my dream home. Giant garage with tiny living space above. Except you have a giant living space above. Start moving in the tools! I'd have to buy more tools to fill that downstairs. |
