Photographing garages usually requires some clean up, sweeping and minimal styling. Not here! Comfortable and inviting, the space offers a place to park your bike, a beverage of choice and a variety of places to sit. This two-story 1920s small camp near Lake Champlain was first renovated in the 1980s. A second renovation was done last year (2017) improving the building envelope by replacing doors and windows, installing mechanical upgrades and adding new finishes and lighting. The garage footprint stayed the same – approximately 16’x24′ – which is plenty of room to store house bikes, road racing bicycles and dirt bikes. The “Bike Bar” is a place where friends (and dogs) are welcome to stop by and hang out for awhile.
