Garage ideas and tips.
You can only build 750 ft2...25' x 30'? Get a tape measure and lay out an outline around your car to see what works for you. When we built our house, we built a detached 3-car garage/storage building. the problem is, everything is just too close to work on without having to make lots of compromises. Due to that, I built my second shed (shop) and made it 30' x 30', but I only have two big doors (drive through) so the other side has a car on wheel dollys. And I did not make it tall enough because I never thought that 25 yrs later I would want/need a lift. My new shop is 30' x 30', with a 20' x 30' lean to attached for additional parking or work. If they will allow the lean to and if you have the room, I would strongly consider it. Attached is a photo of my new shop shortly after construction (without the lift). The doors on the left go all the way through. The door on the right is "in" only.
