DETACHED GARAGE 15' 9" x 7' 10" (4.8m x 2.39m) A detached garage with two windows, electricity, and an up-and-over door can be converted into an outdoor entertainment room under permitted development, depending on local planning regulations. The existing structure provides a solid foundation, and modifications such as replacing the garage door with bi-fold or sliding glass doors can create a seamless indoor-outdoor space. Insulating the walls, floor, and roof will enhance comfort, while upgraded lighting and electrical outlets can support features like ambient lighting, a sound system, or outdoor heaters. The two windows allow natural light, but additional openings or skylights could improve ventilation. Flooring options like composite decking or weather-resistant tiles can enhance the aesthetic and durability of the space. With the right design, the converted garage can serve as a cozy lounge, entertainment hub, or even an outdoor kitchen area, making it a valuable extension of the home.
