This modern garage was built in Nellysford, Virginia, as an add-on living space and guest house to this family’s primary home! Featuring iron-ore board and batten siding, matte black trim, and standing seam metal roofing. The entire space was built to embrace the outdoors. The standout feature, the garage door opening and deck, provides plenty of natural light throughout the living, dining, and kitchen areas, while also offering mountain-facing views. Warm wood finishes and modern details help create a stylish space that supports relaxation and entertaining.
