Have a large wine collection, but don’t want to sacrifice square feet in your home? The garage is an under-utilized space that makes for a perfect wine cellar conversion.

Here are three reasons to park your wine collection in the garage:

  1. Design options are endless. Since the garage is separate from the rest of your home, a custom wine cellar garage conversion allows you the choice of sticking with your established interior style or departing for a completely different look and feel.
  2. Ample storage without sacrificing square footage. Rather than squeezing your bottle storage into your home, you can take over your garage and showcase your wine without giving up any of your guest rooms or closet space.
  3. You can still stash all of your gear. You can easily convert a portion of your garage — like a single wall — while leaving ample storage room for tools, bicycles, or surfboards.
  4. It makes for the ultimate home office, man cave, or she shed. Putting a wine cellar in your garage elevates it from a cluttered storage space to a serene sanctuary faster than you can uncork that bottle of Pinot.
  5. It’s an upgrade that will add long-term value to your home. Turning a garage into a beautiful, multi-functional space increases your home value and attracts luxury buyers. In a competitive market, it can also make the difference between your house and a similar one in the neighborhood.
